The MainWP Branding Extension (often referred to as the White Label Extension) is a premium add-on designed for agencies and freelancers who want to hide the “MainWP” footprint on their clients’ websites.
It effectively allows you to present the management software as your own proprietary maintenance tool, enhancing your professional image.
Core Capabilities
The extension focuses on three main areas: rebranding, security (by restriction), and client support.
1. Complete White-Labeling
You can replace all “MainWP Child” references with your own agency’s details. This includes:
-
Plugin Name & Description: Change “MainWP Child” to something like “[Your Agency] Site Connector.”
-
Plugin Metadata: Replace the Author Name, Author URL, and Plugin URL with your own.
-
Visual Elements: Replace the MainWP logo with your company logo and customize the favicon.
-
Total Stealth: You can choose to completely hide the plugin from the WordPress “Plugins” list so the client doesn’t even know it’s there.
2. Admin Interface Customization
Beyond just the plugin settings, you can rebrand the entire WordPress backend for your clients:
-
WordPress Branding: Replace the default WordPress logo in the admin bar.
-
Dashboard Widgets: Remove default WordPress widgets (like “At a Glance” or “WordPress Events and News”) and add your own custom messages or instructions.
-
Footer Text: Change the “Thank you for creating with WordPress” text to your agency’s support notice.
3. Feature Restrictions (The “Safety” Mode)
To prevent clients from accidentally breaking their sites, you can disable specific menus:
-
Hide Menus: Disable access to the Plugins, Themes, Settings, or Tools menus.
-
Disable Updates: Prevent clients from running updates manually, ensuring you handle them through the MainWP Dashboard.
-
Lock Permalinks: Hide the permalink settings to avoid accidental SEO-breaking changes.
4. Direct Support Integration
You can add a custom Support/Contact form or button directly within the client’s WordPress admin area. This allows them to reach out to you without leaving their dashboard, reinforcing the idea that you are their primary point of contact for all technical needs.
