[DISCUSSION] What are your top 5 most-used WordPress plugins ?

I’m always trying to improve my WordPress workflow, and I feel like there are probably some really useful plugins I’m missing.

So I’m curious. what are your top 5 plugins that you actually use the most?

Ideally excluding the “usual suspects” like WooCommerce, Elementor, etc. I’m more interested in the underrated or lesser-known ones that genuinely make a difference in your daily work.

Always looking to level up, so I’d love to discover a few hidden gems

Is there any real way to reduce Elementor’s bloated code?

I’ve been using Elementor for a while and I like the flexibility, but I can’t ignore how heavy the generated code can get.

I’m trying to improve performance (PageSpeed, load times, etc.), and I’m wondering if there are actually effective ways to “clean up” or reduce the code Elementor outputs.

I’ve seen a few tips here and there (disable unused widgets, optimization plugins…), but I’m curious about what really works in practice.

Are there any tools, settings, or workflows that genuinely helped you make Elementor sites lighter?

Or is it just the trade-off you have to accept when using it?
