A plugin with common features missed in WordPress.
I've developed this plugin for my own job. I've realized that when I create a new WordPress project, there are some features I have to plugin every time. I decided to bundle they all into a single plugin, and I'm publishing it for other creators who may find it useful too.
You can read the readme.txt for a complete list of features.

FAQ
Why not writting a plugin for each feature?
This plugin was designed for creating new WordPress sites faster, and managing one plugin is faster than managing many.
I need only one of your features and I don’t want to install them all
Feel free to copy the code from that feature to your own plugin, but remember the GNU/GPLv3 or later license!
Will you add new features in the next version?
Maybe. I accept suggestions, tell me on the plugin’s WordPress Extend support section
if you have one. Only features useful on most blogs will be included.
