Add Back Buttons To Edit Screens In The Wordpress Admin Image

Okay, okay. Seriously now… This is almost always the first snippet I install because when it’s not active I start twitching and can hardly function without it. Also, it’s sooooo handy when you’re editing your site on a mobile device, so you don’t have to dig through menus. Lazy===Good.

Before… eugghh 🤢

➡️

After… ahhh 🥹

What it does…

Attempts to add a “🔙” Back button to WordPress admin screens.

Why it does it…

Hopefully, it saves you time from needing to scroll and find the admin menu links.

How it does it…

Adds a javascript to the admin footer that tries to determine the parent admin page of the page you’re currently on. I’ve re-written this a couple times and the current version is my best yet, but if it’s missing something for you, lemme know!
