23		-= Key Features =
	23	+= Why Choose Adminify for Admin Customization? =
24	24
25		-**[White Label Admin Area](https://wpadminify.com/features/white-label?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify):** Replace the admin logo and favicon with your own branding, change menu labels, customize the footer text, and replace the "Howdy" greeting to create a fully branded experience for your clients.
	25	+Most admin customization jobs need several single-purpose plugins stitched together: one for white label branding, one for the login screen, one for the dashboard, one for media folders, one for admin columns. Adminify replaces that whole stack with one custom admin panel. Every admin customization setting - menus, login screen, dashboard, colors, columns, notices - lives in the same place, so you're not hunting through five different settings pages to customize admin behavior across a site. Agencies use it to rebrand WordPress for clients and build a simplified client dashboard; solo site owners use it to get a calmer, more usable admin interface for themselves. Either way, the admin panel becomes the control center for the entire WordPress backend.
26	26
27		-**[Drag and Drop Admin Menu Editor](https://wpadminify.com/features/admin-menu-editor?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify):** Visually rearrange, rename, and hide admin menu items. Add new items, set role-based visibility rules, and assign custom icons - no coding required.
	27	+= White Label WordPress: Rebrand the Entire Admin Area =
28	28
29		-**[Login Page Customizer - Loginfy](https://wpadminify.com/loginfy?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify):** Design a custom login screen with your own logo, background image or color, custom form styles, and button colors.
	29	+[White label WordPress](https://wpadminify.com/features/white-label?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify) starts with the basics: replace the admin bar logo, the sidebar logo, and the favicon with your own branding. From there, Adminify lets you go further - customize the admin footer text with your own copy or copyright notice, and swap the default "Howdy" greeting for something that matches your agency or client's brand. This is what turns a stock install into a real white label dashboard for every client site you manage.
30	30
31		-**[Dashboard UI Themes](https://wpadminify.com/features/dashboard-customization?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify):** Apply pre-built skins (Light, Dark, Gradient, Glass), enable dark mode, schedule light/dark switching, and customize colors and fonts.
	31	+White label branding in Adminify isn't limited to the dashboard. Pair it with the login customizer for a white label login page (the white label login can be done with loginfy addon), and the result is a fully rebranded custom admin experience from the moment a client logs in to the moment they land on their dashboard. Agencies that need to rebrand WordPress across multiple client sites can apply the same white label settings consistently, so every custom admin panel feels like a product you built rather than a plugin someone installed. For teams that want white label WordPress without hiring a developer, this is the fastest route: no code, no child themes, just a settings screen for logo, favicon, footer text, and greeting text.
32	32
33		-**[Productivity Tools](https://wpadminify.com/features/productivity?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify):** Organize media files in drag-and-drop folders, hide admin notices, duplicate posts and pages, and add custom dashboard widgets.
	33	+= Admin Menu Editor: Drag and Drop Menu Control =
34	34
35		-**[Security Controls](https://wpadminify.com/features/security?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify):** Change the login URL, set role-based login and logout redirects, disable comments globally, control the Heartbeat API, and clean up the head section.
	35	+The [admin menu editor](https://wpadminify.com/features/admin-menu-editor?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify) lets you visually rearrange, rename, and hide any admin menu item without writing a line of code. Drag a menu item up the list, rename it to something a client will actually understand, or hide admin menu entries that don't apply to a particular role. It's a menu editor built for real client work, not just a demo screen.
36	36
37		-**[Admin Columns Editor](https://wpadminify.com/admin-columns-editor?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify):** Add, remove, and reorder columns in post and page list views. Display custom field values from ACF, MetaBox, and Pods. Includes WooCommerce product list support.
	37	+Role based menu control is where the admin menu editor earns its keep. Build a different custom menu layout for each user role, including custom roles, so an editor sees a simplified admin menu while an administrator sees everything. Add custom menu items that link to internal pages, external URLs, or page builder pages, assign a Dashicon or upload your own SVG icon, group related items with separators, and set any item to open in a new tab. Combined with role based menu visibility, the admin menu editor is one of the fastest ways to hide admin menu clutter and restrict admin access for the roles that shouldn't see it - all without editing a single PHP file.

39		-= Detailed Feature Breakdown =
	39	+= Login Customizer: Build a Custom Login Screen =
40	40
41		-**White Label and Dashboard UI**
	41	+Adminify's [login customizer, Loginfy](https://wpadminify.com/loginfy?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify), is a dedicated login page customizer for the WordPress login screen. Upload your own logo, choose a background color, image, gradient, or slideshow, and style the login form's width, background, border radius, shadow, buttons, and labels. Every change appears in a live preview, so you can see the custom login screen taking shape as you build it rather than saving blind.
42	42
43		-* Replace the admin bar logo, sidebar logo, and favicon with your own branding
44		-* Change the admin footer text to your own content, links, or copyright notice
45		-* Apply pre-designed skins: Light, Dark, Gradient, and Glass morphism styles
46		-* Per-user light and dark mode preference with optional auto-scheduling
47		-* Add custom CSS and JavaScript to the admin area without editing theme files
	43	+Because the login page customizer covers every visible element - logo, background, form styling, buttons, and error messages - it's straightforward to build a custom login page that matches a client's brand exactly, and to pair that custom login screen with your white label dashboard for one continuous brand experience from login to logout. Developers who want extra control can add custom CSS directly inside the login customizer. Security-conscious teams can also change the login URL to a custom slug, add a login attempt limiter, and set role based login redirects and logout redirects so each role lands on the right page after signing in or out - the login redirect and logout redirect settings work independently, so a client can log in to their custom dashboard and log out to a different page entirely.
48	44
49		-**Admin Menu Editor**
	45	+= Admin Dark Mode and WordPress Admin Theme =
50	46
51		-* Drag and drop to reorder menus and submenus
52		-* Create custom menu items linking to internal pages, external URLs, or page builder pages
53		-* Show or hide menus and submenus per user role - useful for client-facing dashboards
54		-* Assign Dashicons or upload SVG icons to any menu item
55		-* Add separators to group related menu items
56		-* Set individual menu items to open in a new tab
	47	+Adminify ships several ready-made [WordPress admin theme](https://wpadminify.com/features/dashboard-customization?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify) skins - Light, Dark, Gradient, and Glass - so you can apply a different admin theme without writing custom CSS. On top of the theme skins sits a dedicated admin dark mode toggle: per-user dark mode preference, optional auto-scheduling between light and dark by time of day, and custom colors and fonts for teams that want their own look.
57	48
58		-**Login Page Customizer (Loginfy)**
	49	+This is real dark mode for the WordPress admin, not a CSS filter slapped over the default screens - the admin dark mode setting works alongside the block editor and every WordPress admin theme skin, so dark mode looks correct no matter which admin theme is active. Toggle it from the toolbar, schedule it automatically, or set it per user so each person on a team gets the dark mode or light mode they actually prefer.
59	50
60		-* Upload a custom logo for the login screen
61		-* Set a background image, color, gradient, or slideshow
62		-* Customize form width, background, border radius, and shadow
63		-* Customize button colors and labels
64		-* Add custom CSS for precise styling control
	51	+= Dashboard Customizer: Build a Custom Dashboard =
65	52
66		-**Media Library Folders**
	53	+The [dashboard customizer](https://wpadminify.com/features/dashboard-customization?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify) shapes a custom dashboard for every role - it's admin customization aimed squarely at the busiest screen in WordPress. Remove the default welcome panel, add your own dashboard widgets (text, RSS feed, or iframe embeds), and control colors, fonts, and layout entirely through the visual dashboard customizer, with no custom CSS and no theme files required.
67	54
68		-* Create folders and subfolders; drag and drop files into them
69		-* Filter and browse media by folder
70		-* Bulk move files between folders
71		-* Media Replace: swap out any image or file while keeping its original URL and ID intact
72		-* Folder support inside the Elementor media picker, Classic Editor popup, and Customizer
	55	+A custom dashboard matters most on client sites: replace the welcome panel with onboarding content that actually helps a client, add dashboard widgets that show what they need to see, and remove the ones they don't. The result is a clean client dashboard rather than the stock WordPress screen full of plugin promotions. Agencies building a full client portal experience typically combine the dashboard customizer with the admin menu editor and white label settings so the custom dashboard, the menu, and the branding all match. Add dashboard widgets and that you prefer to keep on your admin.
73	56
74		-**Productivity and Admin Management**
	57	+Customize admin can be your priority if you or your cleints prefer a cleaner WordPress Dashboard panel.
75	58
76		-* Admin Notices Manager: hide promotional and update notifications from plugins and core
77		-* Remove the Welcome to WordPress dashboard panel
78		-* Hide Screen Options and Help tabs
79		-* Duplicate posts, pages, and custom post types with one click
80		-* Duplicate categories, tags, and custom taxonomies
81		-* Custom dashboard widgets: text, RSS feed, and iframe embeds
	59	+= Media Library Folders and Media Management =
82	60
83		-**Security and Performance**
	61	+[Media library folders](https://wpadminify.com/features/wordpress-media-folder?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify) bring simple, drag-and-drop organization to the WordPress media library. Create folders and subfolders, drag files into media folders, filter and browse by folder, and bulk move files between them. If a site has years of uploads sitting in one flat list, media library folders turn that into something a client can actually navigate.
84	62
85		-* Change the default login URL to a custom slug to reduce brute-force exposure
86		-* Set login and logout redirect URLs per user role
87		-* Disable comments globally across the entire site
88		-* Control the Heartbeat API interval per screen area to reduce server load
89		-* Disable oEmbeds
90		-* Remove unnecessary head tags: RSS links, RSD, WLW Manifest, shortlinks, generator tag, and emoji scripts
91		-* Login attempt limiter to protect the login screen
	63	+Media Replace, bundled with the media folders feature, swaps out any image or file while keeping its original URL and ID intact - useful for updating a logo or a PDF without breaking every link that points to it. Folder support isn't limited to the main media screen either: media folders work inside the Elementor media picker, the Classic Editor popup, and the Customizer, so the organization holds up everywhere media gets selected.
92	64
93		-**Admin Columns Editor**
	65	+= Admin Bar Editor and Toolbar Control =
94	66
95		-* Add, remove, and reorder columns in list views for any post type or custom post type
96		-* Display values from ACF, MetaBox, Pods, and other custom field plugins
97		-* WooCommerce support: show SKU, stock status, price, or weight in product lists
	67	+The **Admin Bar Editor** addon puts the WordPress toolbar under full control. Rename admin bar links, reorder them, or hide admin bar items per user role - useful when a client's toolbar is cluttered with links only a developer needs. Combined with the admin menu editor and role based menu settings, the admin bar editor lets you hide admin bar clutter for clients while keeping full access for admins, closing the loop on a properly customized admin interface from top toolbar to side menu.
98	68
	69	+= Productivity: Notices, Username Changer, and More =
	70	+
	71	+Admin notices pile up fast - plugin update nags, theme promotions, core update reminders. Adminify's notices tool lets you hide admin notices with one toggle, or disable admin notices for specific user roles only, so clients never see upgrade prompts meant for developers. The hide admin notices setting covers the block editor as well as classic admin screens, and agencies commonly use it to disable admin notices across every client site they manage.
	72	+
	73	+Beyond admin notices, Adminify includes a built-in username changer that renames any WordPress login username directly, username changer is suitable for multi user websites, including administrator accounts, with no database edits and no need to create a new account. You can also replace the welcome panel with your own onboarding content, hide Screen Options and Help tabs for a cleaner admin interface, and use the instant admin menu search to jump straight to any settings screen.
	74	+
	75	+Adminify's duplicate post feature clones any post, page, or custom post type in one click - content, template, featured image, and metadata all carry over to the copy. Need a new landing page based on an existing one? Run duplicate post and edit the copy without ever touching the original. The same one-click cloning covers categories, tags, and custom taxonomies too, and editors who publish recurring layouts lean on the duplicate post button to skip rebuilding the same structure every time. Every duplicate post starts as a draft, so the live site never shows a half-edited copy.
	76	+
	77	+= Admin Columns Editor =
	78	+
	79	+The [admin columns editor](https://wpadminify.com/admin-columns-editor?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify) adds, removes, and reorders admin columns in post and page list views for any post type. Pull in custom fields from ACF, MetaBox, and Pods so the values that matter - a price, a status, a custom field - show up right in the list view instead of being buried inside each post.
	80	+
	81	+Key columns are sortable, including the featured image column and custom field columns, which makes large list views far easier to scan and manage. WooCommerce sites get direct support too: show SKU, stock status, price, or weight as admin columns on the product list, so store admins can review inventory without opening every product individually.
	82	+
	83	+= Security Controls =
	84	+
	85	+Security settings round out the admin panel: change the default login URL to a custom slug to cut down on brute-force attempts, add a login attempt limiter, and disable comments globally across posts, pages, and media in one switch. Role based login redirects and logout redirects send each user to the right place after they sign in or sign out, admin access can be restricted by role, and the Heartbeat API can be tuned per screen area to reduce unnecessary admin-side requests. A cleanup toggle also removes unneeded head tags - RSS links, RSD, WLW Manifest, shortlinks, the generator tag, and emoji scripts - and can disable oEmbeds site-wide.
	86	+
	87	+= Built for Agencies: Client Portal and Client Dashboard =
	88	+
	89	+Agencies managing several WordPress installs don't want to jump between five different plugins to customize admin screens - Adminify keeps the admin menu editor, white label branding, login customizer, and dashboard customizer in one custom admin panel. Used together, they turn the default WordPress backend into a genuine custom WordPress admin experience: a simplified client dashboard, or a fuller client portal, where every menu item, color, and widget is something you chose rather than something WordPress shipped by default.
	90	+
	91	+Restrict admin access by user role, hide admin menu entries with role based menu rules, apply a WordPress admin theme that matches the client's brand, and set login redirects so each client lands on their own client dashboard the moment they sign in. The same custom admin tools work just as well for solo site owners who simply want a calmer, more organized admin interface for themselves - complete WordPress backend customization without writing code. Clients get a friendly, focused admin panel; you keep full control over every setting behind it.

187		-= Adminify - 4.2.17 (02-07-2026) =
188		-* Fixed: Changes you make to the account menu (the "Howdy" menu) now show up correctly in the Adminify admin - hiding items, renaming them, limiting them to certain user roles, and adding your own menu items all work as expected.
189		-* Fixed: Your own account menu items without an icon no longer show a random letter next to them.
190		-* Fixed: The account menu now closes properly when you click somewhere else on the page after moving to another page.

	190	+* Security: Security Update.
193	191
194		-= Adminify - 4.2.16 (24-06-2026) =
195		-* Security: Hardened the setup wizard logo upload - validates the data URI, strictly decodes the base64 payload, sanitizes the filename, enforces an image-type allowlist (jpg/jpeg/png/gif/webp), and now stores the logo as a proper Media Library attachment.
196		-* Security: Made the nonce check mandatory when dismissing notices ("hide forever"); requests without a valid nonce are now rejected.
197		-* Security: Blocked PHP object injection in the Admin Pages user-roles metabox by disallowing classes during unserialize().
198		-* Fixed: Resolved a fatal error triggered by the Admin Bar Editor add-on when a submenu option was not an array.
	192	+= Adminify - 4.3.1 (20-08-2026) =
	193	+* Improved: WordPress 7.1 compatibility.
	194	+* Improved: The Gutenberg Editor Logo option is now hidden on WordPress 7.1 and newer, where WordPress no longer provides the editor button it replaced. It keeps working on older versions.
	195	+* Improved: The Infinite Scroll for Media Library option is now hidden on WordPress 7.1 and newer, where the Media Library already scrolls infinitely and each user can opt out from their own profile. It keeps working on older versions.
	196	+* Improved: Dark mode in the block editor.
	197	+* Improved: Disabled buttons now look disabled instead of appearing fully active.
	198	+* Improved: Heartbeat intervals longer than 2 minutes are now marked as not recommended, and the post editor is capped at 2 minutes so post locks and autosave keep working.
	199	+* Fixed: Custom Gravatar images now show up on Settings > Discussion and for users who do not have a Gravatar.
	200	+* Fixed: The Light/Dark switcher in the admin bar now looks and works correctly on the Site Editor and Customizer screens.
	201	+* Fixed: With Adminify UI on, publishing a post now updates the browser address bar, and the editor's back button returns to the post list.
	202	+* Fixed: The block editor pre-publish panel no longer leaves a duplicate Publish button showing above it.
	203	+* Fixed: The Control Heartbeat API interval settings now take effect. Picking 15 or 30 seconds previously changed nothing at all.
	204	+* Fixed: Disabling the Heartbeat API no longer stops autosave and the session expiry check from loading, and the post editor setting now applies on WordPress installed in a subdirectory.
199	205
200		-= Adminify - 4.2.15 (22-06-2026) =
201		-* Fixed: Fluent Support (and other hash-router SPA plugins) Tickets/top-bar menu got stuck on infinite loading inside the Adminify admin UI iframe.

	218	+* Fixed: On phones and tablets, the menu items at the bottom of the sidebar were hidden behind the browser bar and could not be reached on sites with a lot of plugins. The menu now scrolls all the way to the last item.
	219	+* Fixed: With the Two Step menu, opening a menu or a sub-item after scrolling down the sidebar hid the panel heading, so there was no way back to the main menu. The heading now always stays at the top of the panel.
	220	+* Improved: On phones and tablets, the sidebar now slides closed by itself after you tap a menu or submenu link, so you land straight on the page you picked.
