How to display post IDs to admin users

The oik base plugin provides a number of shortcodes where knowing the post ID of content is rather important. I had a look at a number of plugins that reveal the IDs to admin users. Then, for oik v2.3, I added the necessary logic into the oik base plugin.

Features

Basic functionality

Common with other plugins

• Displays post IDs for Posts, Pages, custom post types, Users, Media
• Displays post IDs for Links, if you’re site supports them
• Displays post IDs for Taxonomies
• ID is a sortable column
• Use Screen Options to control the display by content type

Unique features

• Optional – activate/deactivate using the oik options > overview
• Does NOT display post IDs for comments
• Fully documented
• Tiny footprint
• Tested with WordPress 4.0 and WordPress Multisite

Download oik from wordpress.org   If, for some reason, you don’t want to use oik then you may be interested in using one of the following plugins.
