Hello Dolly

Matt Mullenweg

This is not just a plugin, it symbolizes the hope and enthusiasm of an entire generation summed up in two words sung most famously by Louis Armstrong: Hello, Dolly. When activated you will randomly see a lyric from Hello, Dolly in the upper right of your admin screen on every page.

Thanks to Sanjib Ahmad for the artwork.

Nice Biolerplate code plugin

By dimkiriakos on August 18, 2024

Even many people give a lot of hate to this plugin, they should not! This plugin is not something that it's useful your site operations, but it's a nice boilerplate for people that they want to start building plugins for WordPress. It shows that you don't need to write so much code to customize something in your WordPress app. It introduces the wptexturize function the get_user_locale, the admin_notices action hook and the admin_head action hook too. Yes it's not the mode elegant thing that comes. But it can be educational for beginners

Absolutely useless plugin

By niezmywalny on October 17, 2023

I believe someone is paying money to add this useless plugin to WordPress with every installation. If you see this plugin, please remove it.

Delete this nonsense. It serves no purpose.

By Doug Beney (dougbeney) on October 11, 2023

Serves no purpose to most users and developers can just Google for a plugin code example if they need one.

Why is this still a thing?

By pedrotski on July 1, 2023

It's the most pointless plugin and is one of the first things that gets removed on a new installation. By default, there should be 0 plugins on new software.
