Add content and custom links, choose colors and icons for any item, and show or hide data such as path, status, ID, categories, tags and custom meta. Hide individual items from the shortcode while keeping them in the admin tree. * **Shortcode:** place `[site_perspectives]` anywhere to show visitors a styled sitemap. Pick a theme (or match the Frontend tab), colors, layout and data, and watch a live preview update as you change settings. Drafts, private and password- protected pages are skipped automatically. * **Backend:** the WordPress admin menu laid out as an expandable folder tree. Reorder, rename, hide items and add custom links. * **Utility pages:** an optional setting that lets you mark pages as utility pages( login, privacy policy and similar) from Quick Edit or Bulk Actions on the Pages list. Adds Utility and Non-Utility views with counts beside All, Mine, Published, Drafts and Trash, and remembers the view you used last. Settings include role-based access, the post types available in the Frontend tree, the utility page option and an option to delete all data on uninstall. If Admin Help Docs is active, Site Perspectives inherits its color scheme. ### Demo ## Screenshots [⌊Backend tab in list view⌉⌊Backend tab in list view⌉[ Backend tab in list view [⌊Backend tab in horizontal view⌉⌊Backend tab in horizontal view⌉[ Backend tab in horizontal view [⌊Frontend tab in list view with display options expanded⌉⌊Frontend tab in list view with display options expanded⌉[ Frontend tab in list view with display options expanded [⌊Frontend tab in horizontal view⌉⌊Frontend tab in horizontal view⌉[ Frontend tab in horizontal view [⌊Shortcode tab showing all settings and vertical tree layout⌉⌊Shortcode tab showing all settings and vertical tree layout⌉[ Shortcode tab showing all settings and vertical tree layout [⌊Shortcode tab showing horizontal tree layout⌉⌊Shortcode tab showing horizontal tree layout⌉[ Shortcode tab showing horizontal tree layout [⌊Shortcode tab showing card grid layout⌉⌊Shortcode tab showing card grid layout⌉[ Shortcode tab showing card grid layout [⌊Shortcode being used on a frontend page⌉⌊Shortcode being used on a frontend page⌉[ Shortcode being used on a frontend page [⌊Settings page⌉⌊Settings page⌉[ Settings page ## Installation 1. Upload the plugin to `/wp-content/plugins/site-perspectives` or install it from the Plugins screen. 2. Activate it. 3. Open Perspectives in the admin menu. ## FAQ ### Does it create an XML sitemap? No. Site Perspectives works alongside the XML sitemap from WordPress core or your SEO plugin and does not change it. ### How do I show the sitemap to visitors? Add `[site_perspectives]` to any page, post or widget that renders shortcodes. Use`[ site_perspectives layout="cards"]` to override the layout for one instance. ### How do I keep a page off the shortcode but in the admin tree? On the Frontend tab, click Edit, open the item and check “Hide from Shortcode”. Its child items are hidden too. ### How do I mark pages as utility pages? Turn on “Enable Utility Page Flags” in Settings. Then use Quick Edit or the “Mark as Utility” bulk action on the Pages list, and filter with the Utility and Non-Utility views. The last view you used is remembered. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Site Perspectives – Your Site Structure, Mapped for Everyone” is open source software.
