## Description

TMS Core Essentials is a modular toolkit for WordPress sites: security and performance
hardening, admin utilities, custom fields, content helpers, privacy tools, social
features, and a PHP/JS API for themes and custom code.

Configure everything from **Settings  TMS Core Essentials**. Enable only what you
need.

**Included areas:**
 – Content (breadcrumbs, sitemap, related content, extend search,
scroll to top) – Fields (body classes, subtitle, hero, featured video, term images)–
Social and contact (social menu, share buttons, chats) – Privacy and forms (consent,
Google Consent Mode v2, privacy notices) – Administration (Gutenberg, lists, comments,
admin bar, duplicate posts, SVG uploads) – Login (custom login page, logout redirect)–
Security and performance (login hardening, head cleanup) – Extras (frontend assets,
bundled libraries, SVG icons, shortcodes) – Developers reference (PHP API and frontend
JavaScript utilities)

**Bundled translations:**
 – Catalan (`ca`) – English (US) (`en_US`) – French (France)(`
fr_FR`) – German (`de_DE`) – Italian (`it_IT`) – Portuguese (Portugal) (`pt_PT`)–
Spanish (Spain) (`es_ES`)

WordPress loads the matching file when the site language uses the same locale.
