Trash Fail Safe

Description

If you use the WordPress admin area on a mobile device, or have cats sometimes walk across your keyboard it can be good to have a fail-safe confirmation before permanently deleting posts from the Trashed items.
This plugin adds simple JS to the admin area to do just that.

This plugin simply works, I also verified that it does not Affect the site loading speed and it doesn’t Combined with the following line on your wp-config.php file it just makes it super perfect to use (above the last line – don’t put it at the bottom!) //Disable Trash define(‘EMPTY_TRASH_DAYS’, 0 ); OR //Auto Clean Trash After 15 Days Instead Of 30 //define( ‘EMPTY_TRASH_DAYS’, 15 ); Bonus: //Disable Revisions define( ‘WP_POST_REVISIONS’, false ); OR //Spam less history saves of post edits and auto save posts while you write less often //define(‘AUTOSAVE_INTERVAL’, 120); //define(‘WP_POST_REVISIONS’, 10);
