The primary difference is that FluentSnippets is built for speed, security, and ease of use. All other Code Snippet plugins store all the snippets in Database tables so in every WordPress request, they do extensive DB queries to execute them.
The method is very slow and dangerous for site security. The snippets can be modified or exploited via SQL injection caused by other plugins.
FluentSnippets solves this very specific problem by storing all the snippets in a flat file and loading the snippets just like any of the feature plugins. So it’s a fast, secure, and native solution for all of your custom code snippets.
The primary function of the FluentSnippets plugin is to allow you to add custom code snippets to your WordPress site easily and without editing your theme’s or child theme’s files directly.
It provides a user-friendly interface to add, manage, and execute custom PHP, HTML, JavaScript, or CSS snippets on your website. This is particularly beneficial as it ensures the sustainability of your code – your custom changes won’t disappear after a theme update.
Whether you need to add a simple CSS tweak, embed custom HTML in the header or footer, or run a complex PHP script, FluentSnippets can handle it, saving you time and making the process safer and more efficient.
