iThemes Security: Pro Support

To protect our customers’ websites, we rely on iThemes Security Pro. Unfortunately, the iThemes Security Extension can only manage the functionality of the free version and not the additional options of the Pro version.

Advanced Uptime Monitor - HetrixTools

AdministrativeFeature Enhancement

Hi MainWP team, I’m using MainWP just for a few days and it is very good helper. I’ve tried Advanced Uptime Monitor with NodePing and that was interesting. I also considered Uptime Robot but then I’ve met HetrixTools Uptime Monitor - https://hetrixtools.com/uptime-monitor/ 3 and it has been a clear choice. They offer 15 sites for free even with SMS notification and this is very important for me. So I just want to ask if you would consider implementing this service into a AUM add-on?

Hide My WP Ghost

AdministrativeSecurityNew Extension

Hey guys, It would be really good if you add Hide My WP Ghost by WordPress Security Plugins. 100,000+ Active Installations.

WP Reset Extension

AdministrativeNew Extension

Hey guys, It would be really good if you add WP-reset it’s from the same WebFactory Family which many of people have been introduces and using as part of their maintenance tool.

Researching

20i Cache Purge

Is it possible to add automatic cache purging for sites using Stack Cache on 20i?

MainWP + Hide My WP Ghost

Hide My WP Ghost work plugin tech support response: "Seems that for your website, MainWP needs the wp-admin path unchanged. We checked with different configurations and I could sync the MainWP Child and update the plugins and security only when the wp-admin was unchanged." Can you make a setting in MainWP so that when adding a site there is a field where you can specify a different admin path? that MainWP worked if instead of wp-admin I specify a different path, for example site-name-admin. that is, the path to the plugins will not be the same /wp-admin/plugins.php and such /13-admin/plugins.php or any other path to the admin panel that I need. This is an important security feature that hides WordPress from users. do you need to make an official request from Hide My WP Ghost tech support? or you will make compatibility without it. I want MainWP to work well with Hide My WP Ghost, but now I have to disable the function that hides the admin area

CleanTalk Reporting

AdministrativeNew Extension

I used CleanTalk on all my client sites to help stop spam. They do regular reporting each month, as well as useful quick views to check if a contact form submission was truly spam. It would be brilliant if we could pull that data into the MainWP dash and reports.

Cloudflare Extension

PerformanceSecurityNew Extension

It would be great to have a Cloudflare plugin that can read statistics to incorparate in reports. Like threats, caching etc. And while we are at it push settings to multiple child sites. They have a great API.

Fathom Analytics Extension

An Extension for Fathom Analytics https://usefathom.com using their API for privacy instead of Google Ananlytics

Finally support Gutenberg - Classic Editor is so outdated

I think it is really time for MainWP, to support Gutenberg. It might have had its problems when it first came out, but it is the new standard for more than a year now and works perfectly fine now. It even has a classic editor block included for all those who still want to work with that. I tend to remove the classic editor plugin wherever I can (already at 80% of my clients). The truth is: Gutenberg is a great approach in its current state and a valid alternative to plugin based layout editors. And totally independent of what you guys personally think of it, it is there and won’t go away. So I really think it is time to respect this move from the guys at automattic and show that MWP is up to date. Just have a look at the folks at Toolset.com 2 for instance. They were not convinced in the beginning but are successfully and totally moving everything to Gutenberg now. And it works. And it is a sign of professionalism. Just my two cents. Thanks for reading. Also I don’t think that this actually is a feature wish but something that inevitably will come and therefore needs far more attention and an official statement. The chance of an upgrade like it was done with MWP 4.0 did not include Gutenberg was a huge drawback.

Planned

Ignore Update - but only for this version

Core EnhancementFeature Enhancement

Hello, I would love to be able to ignore the current update for WordPress, plugins and themes. When a new version comes out, I would like to see it re-added to my list of updates. Use case: I didn’t update my sites to WordPress 5.5, but I waited for at least 5.5.1. I didn’t update to Elementor 3.0 on my sites, but I waited for the first minor updates. Thanks.

Security Scan extended

SecurityCore EnhancementFeature Enhancement

Is it possible to extend the Security Scan for each website? There are a couple of checks already in place. I would like to add one to remove the license.txt since it’s next to the readme.html, this should not be so difficult? Or is it already possible for me to add this to the database and make it work like that? Thank you. Andy

Left hand menu

Core EnhancementFeature Enhancement

Hi, Just a though,would it be possible to make it so the left hand menu could collapse like the wordpress dashboard can. If you know of some css or php that I can add to the custom plugin you released a while back then that would be fine too. Hopefully others think this is a useful idea.

In Progress

Introduce a "Website Owner" feature and consolidate the redundant token systems

AdministrativeExtension Enhancement

We need to get rid of that old redundant token system. Currently, we have “Boilerplate tokens”, “Client report tokens” and “Client Report Pro tokens”. So MWP requires us to actually enter the same data three times. And if we have the same owner for different websites even more often… What we need is the following: Introduce a “website owner” content type We can associate different websites to the same owner We have a consistent set of tokens which can be used in any extension that uses variables. Please give this a much-needed overhaul as this has been discussed already several years ago. Such little things really can make a difference.

GA Extension - Support for GA4 properties

Visitor DataExtension EnhancementFeature Enhancement

Include full support for the GA4 properties. Update the Google Analytics API library.

Google Analytics Suggestion

AdministrativeExtension Enhancement

Hi, Is it possible to have a filter or search inside Google Analytics dropdown? I have 100-200 number of websites and it is to hard to search for the specific domain when using dropdown. Hopefully you can help me with this.

Add ga:users and ga:newUsers to Google Analytics

AdministrativeVisitor DataExtension Enhancement

Hi, I have multiple clients who want to see not just sessions (“website visits”) and % new sessions (“new visits”) as you’ve called them, but the actual number of site visitors (ga:Users) and of those, who are new (ga:newUsers). Is it possible to add these in as tokens, so those of us that would like to give our clients the extra data can customise a report template with them? If anyone has got these working, would you mind sharing the code please? I can’t get my head around the Analytics API well enough to custom code these right now! Thanks, Emma

Completed

Add support for Rocket.net cache clearing

We use https://rocket.net/ for hosting our client sites. We'd love to see an integration to clear the cache from MainWP. They have a custom set up with CloudFlare enterprise and they use the CDN Cache Plugin.

Non MainWP Changes

This should get an option to dismiss and clear all. I get up to 20 notifications for a single change. I have just one hyperactive user across more than 50 websites and already I have more than 350 entries in this list.

integrate with jetpack protect

jetpack protect provides free daily vulnerability scans checked against the wpscan wpvulndb. it would be great if mainwp could integrate with the jetpack protect plugin to show vulnerabilities exposed by jetpack protect on the mainwp dashboard.

Ability to run database update and elementor DB update after plugin updates to elementor and WooCommerce

As title says

On the plugins page add a link to the MainWP settings page

I have a pull request open. https://github.com/mainwp/mainwp-child/pull/346

List of Plugins Across All Sites

I'd like a list of all plugins across all sites under management I can see the plugin list per site by going to each site, but I want a list of all the plugins (and Ideally an expandable list of the sites using the plugin). A tree list of plugins with an expandable list of sites using the plugin would be great. Also: Listing the plugins for the sites horizontally across the page is a horrible way to show them. I can't make my screen wide enough. At least allow the page to use sliders/elevators so the screen can scroll horizontally. An expandable tree list here would be best as well

Plugins listed as rows instead of columns

On the manage plugins page, I have two websites each with 60 plugins. I would love a configuration setting that will allow me to have the sites as columns and the plugins as rows. I would find that much easier to navigate and visualise what is installed, if I was scrolling down a list of 60+ entries rather than scrolling horizontally

FlyingPress cache plugin support.

FlyingPress is a speed optimisation (cache) plugin for WordPress. I find it better than WPRocket. Can I ask you to add it to your list of cache supported plugins? It is here: https://flying-press.com
