View and log website memory usage and check memory limits.
Logs memory usage as users browse your website providing latest logs and flagged logs (when memory usage is over specific percentages).
For users who have specific capabilities (e.g. administrators) a memory meter is shown in the admin bar showing memory usage as the website and dashboard is navigated and includes several configuration options.
manage_options
capability (Premium)After installation memory usage will be logged for any user as they browse the website and dashboard, you can see the logs via the Memory Meter menu in the WordPress dashboard. Note that page request information is only logged for users with the manage_options
capability in the free version of this plugin. The premium version logs page request information for all users regardless of their capability.
By default the memory meter will be shown in the admin bar if you are logged in as user with the manage_options
capability such as an administrator (the capability can be modified if required, see the configuration tab via the Memory Meter page).
In this scenario you will see the meter in the admin bar at the top of your WordPress dashboard and the frontend of your website. Note that there is a user profile setting in WordPress to enable the admin bar, it is enabled by default, if this is not enabled you will not be able to view the memory meter in the admin bar.
If you hover over the memory meter you will see a number of options, such as logs and configuration. In addition to the admin bar, a menu item is included in your WordPress dashboard to give access to the logs, confirguration, etc.
Note that the memory meter doesn’t need to be displayed to ensure memory usage is logged, this is done regardless of whether the memory meter is being displayed.

When your website is using greater than 75% of allocated memory the meter will change to orange (warning), if greater than 90% it will change to red (bad). If you want to change these default percentages you can use the wpmm_memory_meter_memory_usage_percentage_warning
and wpmm_memory_meter_memory_usage_percentage_bad
filter hooks.
The memory meter displays by default in the admin bar for any user with the manage_options
