Incredibly useful, should be part of WP core!

I love this! Simple, effective, very clean. Saves so much time, wish this were part of WordPress core!

Just what I needed!

Switching between pages while editing was driving me crazy, this is great! Why isn’t this function a standard part of the tool bar? Just one thought: If a page is set to “private” visibility it does not show in the drop-down menu. A minor thing for me, but perhaps there’s a way to fix it?

Built-in content only

This plugin is simple and works, but it only works with standard WordPress content. It does not allow custom links and custom content types.

• Made the ‘abepl_exclude_post_types’ filter more reliable – will now remove the checkbox from the settings screen as well as prevent a previously checked, valid post type from displaying in the admin bar menu.
