Simple Client Dashboard

Descripció

Simple Client Dashboard offers a new “Admin” user role, which fits perfectly between the default WordPress roles for Administrator and Editor access. This allows clients and Webmasters to manage their website content without you having to worry about critical settings or information being removed or adjusted.

  • Preserve your hard work
  • Avoid unexpected messes and troubleshooting sessions
  • One-click access restriction

Incorporate Into Your Clients Site with Ease

Getting started with Simple Client Dashboard is a breeze — unlike other full user-role solutions that eat up your time, this one won’t have you scratching your head or testing endlessly. Simply install this on your client’s site right from the get-go and it’s smooth sailing from there.

There’s little to no setup required, just install Simple Client Dashboard, and you’ll instantly have access to the new “Admin” user role. If you’d like to adjust the “Admin” role, the free plugin offers a clean and tidy interface so that you can make adjustments. And, Simple Client Dashboard Pro, lets you further customize permissions for more advanced third party plugins.

Give Clients and Webmasters The Access They Need

Restrict access to only the features and functions they need to manage their site – without breaking it! Restrict their capabilities and permissions just enough to make sure no unexpected problems arise as they begin working on their website.

Simple and Clean “Admin” Role Editing Interface

The Simple Client Dashboard offers a clean and straightforward editing interface for the new “Admin” role. Effortlessly make updates to the permissions and abilities that your clients have on their websites with a few clicks.

Simple Client Dashboard creates a new user role named “Admin” which is similar to the default “Administrator” role, but with the following changes:

Hides Non-essential and Troublesome WordPress Dashboard Items

  • Hide the WordPress Settings menu
  • Hide the WordPress Plugins menu
  • Hide the WordPress Tools menu
  • Hide the WordPress Users menu
  • Hide the WordPress Appearance > Editor tab
  • Disable the theme installation button
  • Disable theme-switching buttons
  • Disable the WordPress Core Updates button

(More options in Simple Client Dashboard Pro)

Simple Client Dashboard PRO also provides Third Party Plugin Constraints

Upgrade to Simple Client Dashboard Pro to get even more control over how the Admin role can interact with popular third party plugins.

Other user role solutions expect you to enter raw code names for permissions or are limited to capabilities that WordPress exposes by default. While Simple Client Dashboard takes it a step further by custom coding beyond standard WordPress permissions.

Instal·lació

Install and activate the plugin on your site. Simple Client Dashboard is built with a carefully chosen set of permissions intended for most clients and webmasters. After activation go to your client’s WordPress user profile and switch them to the new “Admin” role. If you’d like to adjust the permissions, head over to the WordPress Settings > Simple Client Dashboard editor. This will open our interface for editing the settings of the Admin role. We also have a Pro version that offers advanced customization for the Admin role including support for popular third party plugins.

PMF

Could I just use a role editing plugin to do the same thing as Simple Client Dashboard?

Yes, although this approach takes quite a bit of setup that you have to do on every customer’s website. Simple Client Dashboard offers a swift one-click solution so you can switch all your clients over quickly and easily incorporate it into your new client workflow. And in addition, most of these plugins are limited to user capabilities, while Simple Client Dashboard also provides additional capabilities and permissions that aren’t exposed by WordPress by default.

Will my clients know they’re not full administrators?

Probably not; they should still be able to perform most of the tasks they’re interested in, like adding content and managing most website functionality. They would also see their User Role set to “Admin”, which in our experience, satisfies even the most controlling clients. We suggest adding something in your project maintenance contracts that suggests that your agency is set as the “Super-Admin,” and that would be the only ones who can make dramatic or fundamental changes to their sites, such as changing themes and installing plugins.

I have a question or need help with the plugin, how do I contact your support team?

To contact our support team, submit your message through our WordPress support forum. Or, you can also submit your message through our website’s Contact page.

What if I need to support more plugins or themes than what’s offered?

If you find a plugin or theme you would like to see included in Simple Client Dashboard,reach out to us! We’d love to hear your insights. We plan to support more themes and plugins over time. And we count every request and keep tabs on which permissions we need to prioritize and what integrations are important to our customers.

It’s super intuitive and makes managing client websites so much easier. The design is clean and straightforward, which means I can adjust the “Admin” role quickly and without any confusion. It’s clear the developers put a lot of thought into making it user-friendly for everyone. One of the best features is the ability to restrict access and customize permissions easily. This way, clients can manage their content without accidentally changing critical settings. This plugin has saved me so much time and has definitely given me peace of mind. If you’re looking for a reliable and easy-to-use client management solution, I highly recommend this one!

As a non-developer, the option to restrict access to settings that can inadvertently break my sites is a great safety net. I can even use it to restrict myself by logging with the newly created admin role most of the time so I’m less likely to cause myself problems. Lots of applications for solopreneurs, people who build sites for others, and business owners who need to assign team members specific levels of access.

Thank you for this great plugin, I needed to assign roles to my team members and I found it. Recommended to everyone!!

Was wondering if I could have more control over user roles, this is exactly what I needed! ^^

Years ago, when I created my first WordPress blog, I had fallen victim (more than once) to ‘just changing’ a theme (because it was prettier!) and actually breaking a ton of things on my site that took hours to find and fix. I’m better at WordPress now and trust myself with the full Administrator role, but use Simple Client Dashboard for the people who need to adjust things on my sites (liked updating content, etc.), but who don’t have the WordPress experience to know when they are doing something dangerous (like changing a theme). Love this tool. Works like a charm.
