Description
Client Handover Mode helps site owners present a simpler WordPress workspace to selected client roles.
Features include:
- Hide selected admin menu items from configured client roles.
- Configure target roles and choose a workspace preset.
- Restrict selected block-editor options for client users.
- Toggle selected page-section visibility using the plugin’s editor controls.
- Preview the simplified client workspace as an administrator.
- Optionally hide notices that use common promotional CSS class names while Client View is active.
Notice suppression is intentionally limited to common promotional class names. WordPress and third-party plugins do not use a universal standard for promotional notices, so some notices may remain visible. Important system, security, and update notices are not removed from WordPress notice hooks.
Installation
- Upload the
client-handover-modefolder to the/wp-content/plugins/directory, or upload the ZIP through the Plugins screen. - Activate Client Handover Mode from the Plugins screen.
- Open the plugin’s settings page and configure the target roles, menus, and editor options.
- Save the settings and test with a non-administrator account before handing the site to a client.
FAQ
-
Does this plugin delete content?
-
The section-muting feature is intended to hide selected sections rather than delete their content. Review changes in a staging environment before using the plugin on a production site.
-
No. Only notices whose CSS class names match a short list of common promotional patterns are hidden in Client View. This avoids removing every admin notice, including important system messages.
-
Can administrators use the simplified view?
-
Administrators can use the plugin’s preview feature to inspect the client workspace.
