## Description

MITS Profiler adds a diagnostic bar to any page by appending `?mits_prof=1` to the
URL. It captures timing data from the moment PHP starts and presents it in a dark-
themed panel at the bottom of the page — visible only to logged-in administrators.

**Tabs included:**

 * **Timeline** — absolute and relative timing between WordPress lifecycle hooks(
   plugins_loaded  init  wp_head  wp_footer)
 * **Hooks** — top 50 slowest action/filter hooks with total time and call count
 * **Options** — most-queried WordPress options + full autoload audit with sizes
 * **Plugins** — loaded PHP file sizes per plugin (proxy for load time)
 * **Assets** — all enqueued scripts and styles, external ones highlighted
 * **HTTP** — outgoing wp_remote_* requests with response time and status
 * **SQL** — all database queries with slow-query highlighting (requires SAVEQUERIES)
 * **PHP** — PHP version, OPcache status and hit rate, memory and execution limits

**Key features:**

 * Zero HTTP loopback — works behind Cloudflare, reverse proxies and strict firewall
   rules
 * No external dependencies or requests
 * Admin-only: the panel and all data are never shown to guests
 * Export to JSON or CSV for offline analysis
 * Works on front-end pages, WooCommerce pages, and WP Admin

**SQL query logging** requires adding the following to `wp-config.php`:

    ```
    define('SAVEQUERIES', true);
    ```

## Installation

 1. Upload the `mits-profiler` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`
 2. Activate the plugin in **Plugins  Installed Plugins**
 3. Go to **MITS Profiler** in the admin menu to open the control panel
 4. Click **Profiluj w nowej karcie** or manually append `?mits_prof=1` to any URL

## FAQ

### Does this plugin slow down my site for visitors?

No. The profiler only activates when `?mits_prof=1` is present in the URL, and even
then it only renders its output for logged-in administrators. Regular visitors are
completely unaffected.

### Does it work behind Cloudflare?

Yes. Unlike profilers that rely on HTTP loopback requests (which Cloudflare blocks),
MITS Profiler measures time inline within the same PHP process — no outgoing requests
needed.

### How do I see database queries?

Add `define('SAVEQUERIES', true);` to your `wp-config.php` before the line `/* That's
all, stop editing! */`. Remember to remove it when done, as it adds overhead on 
every page load.

### The panel does not appear

Make sure you are logged in as an administrator and that the URL contains `?mits_prof
=1` (or `&mits_prof=1` if the URL already has a query string).
