Frontend Dashboard — Built for Modern WordPress Portals
Frontend Dashboard provides a complete frontend portal for WordPress sites with modular controls for user management, post publishing, custom menus, and branding.
Take full control of the user experience by allowing members, authors, and customers to manage their profiles, submit posts, and navigate custom dashboards directly on the frontend — without ever accessing the wp-admin dashboard.
Key Features
- Modern App Shell & Responsive Layout: Clean, fast frontend dashboard interface powered by Tailwind CSS with responsive slide-over navigation.
- Modern Rich Text & Block Editors: Choose between Editor.js (block editor with headers, images, quotes, lists, tables), TipTap (WYSIWYG modern editor), or the classic WordPress Editor for frontend post publishing.
- Custom Authentication Flow: Custom Login, Registration, and Forgot Password pages with custom redirects before/after login, register, and logout.
- WP Admin Restriction: Restrict access to the WordPress backend (
/wp-admin/) and admin toolbar based on user roles. - Custom User Roles: Create, manage, and assign custom user roles with specific dashboard capabilities.
- Custom Profile & Post Fields: Create unlimited custom fields for user profiles and post types with role-based visibility and permissions.
- Built-in Templates & Page Mappings: Built-in modern dashboard templates, extra form fields, and page loaders merged directly into Core.
- File Upload Controls: Role-based permissions to allow or restrict media uploads in the frontend dashboard.
- Frontend Post & Taxonomy Management: Add, edit, and delete posts or custom post types and taxonomies with role permissions.
- Add-ons & Extensions Hub: Browse, install, and activate official Frontend Dashboard add-ons with 1-click management and real-time catalog updates.
- System Status & Diagnostics: Built-in system environment diagnostic tools, database health checks, and activity logging.
