To ensure the plugin functions correctly, your server and WordPress environment should meet these standards:
Platform: Self-hosted WordPress installation (WordPress.org).
Theme Compatibility: Requires Divi Theme or Extra Theme by Elegant Themes.
PHP Version: 7.0 or greater.
Database: MySQL version 5.6+ OR MariaDB version 10.0+.
Web Server: Apache or Nginx (with mod_rewrite enabled).

WP Zone recommends the following minimum PHP configurations for optimal performance:
Memory Limit: 128M
Max Execution Time: 180 seconds
Max Input Vars: 5000
Post Max Size / Upload Max Filesize: 64M
WYSIWYG Interface: Uses the standard WordPress “Classic” editor (TinyMCE) interface, making it code-free for most users.
Dynamic Shortcodes: Supports native shortcodes for dynamic content. Common includes:
[time type="year"] – Automatically updates the copyright year.
[time type="date"] – Displays the current date.
Media Support: Allows embedding of images (logos), videos, and hyperlinks directly into the bottom footer bar.
CSS Customization: While it is a “no-code” tool, it assigns specific IDs (like #footer-info) that allow for easy CSS overrides in the Divi Theme Options.
Lightweight Footprint: The plugin is designed to be “ultra-lightweight,” meaning it has a negligible impact on page load speeds and database bloat.
