## Description

WP Admin Label Renamer is a lightweight admin-only plugin that allows administrators
to rename common WordPress admin labels to better match their workflow or client
terminology.

The plugin is intentionally simple and focused. It only changes the visible labels
shown in the WordPress admin dashboard and does not modify post types, capabilities,
URLs, permissions, or database structures.

This makes it suitable for client sites, internal dashboards, and teams that want
clearer naming without altering WordPress core behavior.

Development repository: https://github.com/saivarshithavunoori/wp-admin-label-renamer

**What this plugin does:**
