| 11 | -Turn wp-admin into a desktop OS — windows, dock, virtual desktops, and an AI assistant. Per-user opt-in, zero Core changes. By Automattic. | |
| 11 | +A windowed workspace for wp-admin. Open posts, media, and settings side by side, with a dock, virtual desktops, and a Cmd+K palette. | |
| 12 | 12 | |
| 13 | 13 | == Description == |
| 14 | 14 | |
| 15 | -**Your WordPress admin, reimagined as a desktop.** Every admin screen opens as a draggable, resizable window — edit a post, browse the Media Library, and moderate comments side by side instead of one page at a time. | |
| 15 | +**wp-admin forgets. OpenStation doesn't.** | |
| 16 | 16 | |
| 17 | -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jii_gGbqUx4 | |
| 17 | +You know the moment. You're deep in a post and you need one image from the Media Library. You click over, find it, click back, and everything you had going is gone. Your scroll position, your half-typed thought, the three other things you had queued up in your head. | |
| 18 | 18 | |
| 19 | -OpenStation is opt-in per user: one click in the admin bar switches you in, one click switches you back. Nobody else on the site sees any change, and deactivating the plugin restores the classic admin exactly. Zero Core patches — every feature runs through public WordPress hooks. | |
| 19 | +That's not a bug you hit. That's the design. wp-admin shows you one screen at a time, and every navigation throws the last one away. It has worked this way since 2003, like a fridge that empties itself every time you close the door. | |
| 20 | 20 | |
| 21 | +WordPress has rebuilt almost everything else. The editor, the site editor, the patterns, the styles. The admin's one-screen-at-a-time model is the layer nobody touched. | |
| 22 | + | |
| 23 | +OpenStation touches it. | |
| 24 | + | |
| 25 | +https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5MLB3WMlCc | |
| 26 | + | |
| 27 | +Install it and admin screens become draggable, resizable windows. Edit a post while the Media Library sits open next to it. Drag an image from one window straight into the other. Keep comments open in the corner. Reload the browser and your window layout — open pages, positions, sizes, and window states — comes back where you left it. | |
| 28 | + | |
| 29 | +OpenStation itself is free, GPL, and opt-in per user. One click in the admin bar turns it on for you. One click turns it off. Nobody else on your site sees anything change, and deactivating the plugin restores the classic admin exactly. No Core patches and no lock-in. Optional AI providers may charge for their service. | |

| 22 | 32 | |
| 23 | -= A real desktop = | |
| 33 | += Work on more than one thing at once = | |
| 24 | 34 | |
| 25 | -* **Windows** — drag, resize, minimize, maximize, snap, tile. Every admin page works, including plugin pages. | |
| 26 | -* **Dock & taskbar** — the admin menu becomes an icon dock; open windows live in a macOS-style taskbar. | |
| 27 | -* **Virtual desktops (Spaces)** — one desktop for writing, another for the store, another for moderation. | |
| 28 | -* **Files on the desktop** — drop posts, media, and links onto the wallpaper, organize them into folders, trash them to the Trash. | |
| 29 | -* **Session restore** — reload the browser and every window comes back exactly where you left it. | |
| 35 | +Admin pages open as windows, including pages added by most other plugins. Drag them, resize them, snap them, tile them, minimize them to a taskbar. The admin menu becomes a dock of icons. Two editors open at once is one click away. | |
| 30 | 36 | |
| 37 | += Never lose your place = | |
| 38 | + | |
| 39 | +Moving between open windows leaves each page in place. Across reloads, OpenStation remembers your open pages, window positions, sizes and states, virtual desktops, and focus. Closing a window with unsaved changes warns you first. | |
| 40 | + | |
| 41 | += A desk you can actually put things on = | |
| 42 | + | |
| 43 | +Drop posts, media, and links right onto the wallpaper. Sort them into folders. Trash them to a Trash that actually holds things. The stuff you're working on this week can just sit out where you can see it. | |
| 44 | + | |
| 45 | += One desktop per job = | |
| 46 | + | |
| 47 | +Virtual desktops, the way your operating system does them. One for writing. One for the store. One for comment triage. One for that redesign you keep poking at. Switch between them without closing anything. | |
| 48 | + | |
| 49 | += Find anything with Cmd+K = | |
| 50 | + | |
| 51 | +The full WordPress command palette, plus slash commands from your plugins, all under one keystroke. Turn on the optional AI assistant and you can ask it things like "which post had the comment asking for the recipe?" and it searches your own content to answer. (Requires an AI provider configured in Settings → Connectors on WordPress 7.0+. Details under "External services" below.) | |
| 52 | + | |
| 53 | += See how your site fits together = | |
| 54 | + | |
| 55 | +The Corkboard is an interactive, zoomable map of how your posts, pages, and products link to each other. Pan around it. Find the orphans. Find the hubs. | |
| 56 | + | |
| 57 | += Running a store? = | |
| 58 | + | |
| 59 | +Orders, Products, Coupons, and Customers become browsable folders with stock and sale ribbons. Open a customer to see their lifetime spend and what they buy most. Follow a product to its buyers, or a coupon to who redeemed it. | |
| 60 | + | |
| 31 | 61 | = Make it yours = |
| 32 | 62 | |
| 33 | -* **Wallpapers** — color presets, animated scenes, or your own image. | |
| 34 | -* **Widgets & desktop icons** — pin live widgets and shortcuts to the wallpaper; plugins can register their own. | |
| 63 | +Wallpapers, from color presets to animated scenes to your own photo. Live widgets pinned to the desktop: drafts, stats, recent comments, a focus timer. Uploadable desktop themes, including a built-in Legacy theme that brings the old WordPress blue back in one click. And Mio, a soft-body desk companion that drifts across your wallpaper and gets bumped around by your windows. Off by default. You'll turn it on. | |
| 35 | 64 | |
| 36 | -= Superpowers = | |
| 65 | += For developers = | |
| 37 | 66 | |
| 38 | -* **AI Assistant (optional)** — press Cmd+K and ask *"Which post had the comment asking for the recipe?"* It searches your own content. Requires an AI provider configured in **Settings → Connectors** (WordPress 7.0+); see "External services" below. | |
| 39 | -* **Corkboard** — an interactive, zoomable map of how your posts, pages, and products link together. | |
| 40 | -* **Cross-window drag & drop** — drag an image from the Media Library window straight into the editor in another window. | |
| 41 | -* **Command palette** — the full WordPress command palette plus slash commands from plugins, all under Cmd+K. | |
| 67 | +Extend OpenStation through documented PHP and JavaScript APIs. Register windows, icons, wallpapers, widgets, commands, and settings tabs through stable `openstation_register_*` PHP APIs and a typed JavaScript API; customize dock items through documented hooks; add AI tools with the WordPress Abilities API. Copy-paste examples live in the [developer docs on GitHub](https://github.com/WordPress/openstation/tree/trunk/docs). | |

| 45 | -Every significant behavior is hookable. Register windows, dock items, wallpapers, widgets, desktop icons, commands, settings tabs, and AI tools from your own plugin — stable `openstation_register_*` PHP APIs, a typed JavaScript API, and copy-paste examples in the [developer docs on GitHub](https://github.com/WordPress/openstation/tree/trunk/docs). | |
| 71 | +No external service is required for OpenStation's desktop interface. The optional AI Assistant, two user-initiated enrichment features and an optional feedback form on deactivation make the external requests described below. | |
| 46 | 72 | |
| 47 | -= External services = | |
| 73 | +**AI Assistant** | |
| 48 | 74 | |
| 49 | -This plugin's optional **AI Assistant** sends data to the **AI provider you configure in WordPress's Settings → Connectors** (for example OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google). Generation is routed through WordPress 7.0's built-in AI Client, which supplies the credentials stored in Connectors — the plugin never handles an API key itself. With no provider configured in Connectors, no external AI requests are made. | |

Generation is routed through WordPress 7.0's built-in AI Client, which supplies the credentials stored in Connectors. The plugin never handles an API key itself. With no provider configured in Connectors, no external AI requests are made. | |
| 50 | 76 | |
| 51 | 77 | When the AI Assistant is enabled and a user invokes it (via Cmd+K or the slash-command palette): |
| 52 | 78 | |
| 53 | 79 | * **What is sent:** the user's prompt, the conversation history for the active session, and tool-call metadata. The plugin's built-in tools (`search_posts`, `search_pages`, `search_comments`) run WordPress's native keyword search and may include excerpts of the matching posts/pages/comments in tool results, which are then sent back to the provider as part of the agentic loop. |
| 54 | -* **When it is sent:** on user-initiated AI requests, and (if an administrator enables "Score new comments with AI") on comment-save hooks for spam analysis. Posts, pages, and taxonomy terms are not sent automatically. | |
| 80 | +* **When it is sent:** on user-initiated AI requests only. Nothing is sent automatically — posts, pages, comments and taxonomy terms are never analyzed in the background. | |
| 55 | 81 | * **Why it is sent:** to obtain model completions and tool-call decisions that drive the AI Assistant. |
| 56 | -* **Who provides the service:** whichever provider you configured in Settings → Connectors. Which provider (and endpoint) receives the data depends entirely on that configuration — review the chosen provider's own terms and privacy policy (e.g. OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google). | |
| 82 | +* **Who provides the service:** whichever provider you configured in Settings → Connectors. Which provider (and endpoint) receives the data depends entirely on that configuration. Review the chosen provider's own terms and privacy policy (e.g. OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google). | |
| 57 | 83 | |
| 58 | -No other external services are contacted by this plugin. | |
| 84 | +**URL shortcut favicons** | |
| 59 | 85 | |
| 86 | +When an authorized user creates a desktop shortcut to an external URL, OpenStation asks that URL for its page HTML and favicon so the shortcut can display the site's icon. The request is made from your WordPress server and sends the requested URL, the server's IP address, an OpenStation user-agent string, and normal HTTP request metadata to the operator of that site. This happens only when a user creates the shortcut. The destination site's terms and privacy policy apply. | |
| 87 | + | |
| 88 | +**Deactivation feedback** | |
| 89 | + | |
| 90 | +When an administrator deactivates OpenStation, a dialog asks one optional question about why. Nothing is sent unless you click **Send and deactivate**; **Skip and deactivate** sends nothing, and both deactivate the plugin. | |
| 91 | + | |
| 92 | +* **What is sent:** the reasons you ticked, the optional details you typed, the OpenStation, WordPress and PHP versions, your site language, whether the site is a network, how long OpenStation was installed, whether anyone on the site had turned it on (how many people, and how many days after install the first one did), whether the person deactivating had it on, the number of active plugins, and where the dialog was shown. Nothing that identifies you or your site: no URL, no site id, no email, no user name, no plugin names, and no IP address is stored. Each submission carries a random id used only to ignore an accidental retry. | |
| 93 | +* **When it is sent:** only when you click Send in the dialog shown on deactivation. There is no background ping. | |
| 94 | +* **Why it is sent:** to learn what did not work so it can be fixed. | |
| 95 | +* **Who provides the service:** the request goes from your server to [openstation.blog](https://openstation.blog/), the plugin's own site, operated by Automattic. Review the [Automattic Privacy Policy](https://automattic.com/privacy/). Site owners can turn the dialog off with the `openstation_deactivation_feedback_enabled` filter. | |
| 96 | + | |
| 97 | +**WordPress.org plugin information** | |
| 98 | + | |
| 99 | +When an authorized user opens or refreshes parts of OpenStation's Plugins window, OpenStation may request public plugin details, update metadata, and review excerpts from WordPress.org. These requests send plugin slugs, the site's locale, and normal HTTP request metadata to WordPress.org. This information is used only to display and manage plugins.

| 73 | 116 | == Frequently Asked Questions == |
| 74 | 117 | |
| 118 | += Isn't this just a gimmick? = | |
| 119 | + | |
| 120 | +The desktop look is the visible part, so it's a fair question. But the look is a consequence, and the mechanism underneath is the point: windows hold their state, so switching tasks stops costing you your place. wp-admin is a single-document interface where every navigation destroys the last screen. OpenStation replaces that with the same concurrency model your operating system has used for decades. The research behind it goes back to Henderson and Card's "Rooms" paper at Xerox PARC in 1986. The wallpaper is just what that model looks like when you build it. | |
| 121 | + | |
| 122 | += Will this slow down my site? = | |
| 123 | + | |
| 124 | +OpenStation's desktop interface and browser assets are loaded only inside wp-admin, and only for users who have turned it on. Its PHP integration still participates in normal WordPress request handling where needed, including tracking content changes, but visitors never receive the desktop UI. | |
| 125 | + | |
| 75 | 126 | = Does this change anything for users who don't opt in? = |
| 76 | 127 | |
| 77 | 128 | No. The classic admin is untouched until a user toggles OpenStation on for themselves. Deactivating the plugin restores vanilla Core exactly. |
| 78 | 129 | |
| 130 | += Does it work with my other plugins? = | |
| 131 | + | |
| 132 | +Most plugin admin pages open as windows without special integration. Plugins that depend on running in the top-level browser context or use unusual navigation may need compatibility work. Plugins can also register their own native windows, widgets, and commands for a deeper integration. | |
| 133 | + | |
| 79 | 134 | = Does the plugin require an external service to function? = |
| 80 | 135 | |
| 81 | -No. The desktop shell, windowing, dock, taskbar, virtual desktops, widgets, wallpapers, and all extension APIs work entirely on-site. The AI Assistant is the only feature that contacts an external service, and it stays inert until an administrator configures an AI provider in Settings → Connectors. See "External services" in the description. | |
| 136 | +No. The desktop shell, windowing, dock, taskbar, virtual desktops, widgets, wallpapers, and extension APIs work without an external service. The optional AI Assistant requires a configured AI provider. OpenStation also makes limited, user-initiated requests to resolve URL-shortcut favicons and display WordPress.org plugin information, and offers an optional, one-click feedback form when you deactivate. See "External services" in the description. | |

| 127 | -* The site folder is now WP Explorer, and OS Settings is now OpenStation Preferences. | |
| 128 | -* A new palette and typography, with four wallpapers: Galaxy (the new default), Space, Holomesh and Pulsemesh. | |
| 129 | -* Desktop Mode (Legacy) — a built-in desktop theme that puts the previous look back in one click, WordPress blue included. | |
| 130 | -* Mio — a soft-body desk companion that drifts across the wallpaper and gets pushed around by your windows. Off by default; turn it on from the dock. It also ships as a standalone script you can drop on any page, WordPress or not. | |
| 131 | -* Holographic controls — switches, primary buttons and selected items catch an iridescent mesh on hover and press. | |
| 132 | -* New Switch component, and a searchable Components tab in OpenStation Preferences. | |
| 133 | -* Select more than one thing at a time — click, Ctrl-click, Shift-click, marquee and Cmd+A on the desktop and in every folder window, with WordPress's own bulk actions and multi-item drag. | |
| 134 | -* Custom post types now appear in WP Explorer, grouped into a folder named after the plugin or theme that registered them. | |
| 135 | -* Post tiles show their featured image instead of a generic icon, which turns a catalogue into a photo grid. | |
| 136 | -* WooCommerce — Orders, Products, Coupons and Customers as browsable folders, with out-of-stock, low-stock, backorder and sale ribbons, and a details pane showing price, stock, order totals, line items and coupon usage. | |
| 137 | -* Open a customer for their lifetime spend, what they buy most and their recent orders, and follow a product to its buyers or a coupon to who redeemed it. | |
| 138 | -* The editor's preview companion follows your typing in the classic editor too, and opens straight away instead of waiting on a save. | |
| 139 | -* Plugins can accept files dropped onto their own desktop icon, via `wp.os.files.registerTilePayloadHandler()`. | |
| 140 | -* The Games leaderboard refreshes the moment a run finishes, instead of waiting for a reload. | |
| 141 | -* Fix the Media Library's uploader button opening a window instead of the inline uploader, and uploaded files not reaching the grid until the window was reopened. | |
| 142 | -* Fix context menus opened near the bottom of the screen running off the edge, which put most of their options out of reach. | |
| 143 | -* Fix Quick Edit and Bulk Edit going dead once a list refreshed in place. | |
| 144 | -* Fix the classic revisions screen opening in a browser tab instead of a window, and restoring a revision leaving a stale editor behind. | |
| 145 | -* Fix closed windows reappearing after a refresh, and window state being lost when several windows were closed in quick succession. | |
| 146 | -* Fix the widget column rendering empty. | |
| 147 | -* Desktop icons and file tiles now fade out in Overview, so they no longer collide with window thumbnails. | |
| 148 | -* Fix `wp.os.activity.subscribe()` never receiving events — channel names containing a slash were silently rejected. | |
| 149 | -* The portal URL moved from `/desktop-mode/` to `/openstation/`. Reinstall the app if you added OpenStation to your home screen. | |
| 150 | -* For plugin authors: `wp.desktop` is now `wp.os`, `<wpd-*>` components are `<os-*>`, PHP functions and hooks use the `openstation_` prefix, and activity channels moved from `desktop-mode/<event>` to `os/<event>`. Stored data — options, meta, custom tables, REST namespaces and the WordPress.org slug — is unchanged. | |

| 279 | +* Add close all windows keybinds. | |
| 280 | +* Multisite: support the network admin, and scope desktops per site | |
| 281 | +* App Framework — a window in one PHP file (.osx.php + optional .os.ts), Code Blue & WP Explorer rebuilt on it | |
| 282 | +* App Framework DX: warn on the silent footguns, trace dispatches, open client views to third parties | |
| 283 | +* Trash: the Recycle Bin rebuilt on the App Framework — 659 lines against 1,869, the frozen id claimed, the legacy window deleted whole | |
| 284 | +* Station Home: the native Dashboard rebuilt on the App Framework — 931 lines against 1,323, no client script, the legacy window deleted whole | |

| 289 | +* [Proposal] Workspaces — desktops that know what they're for | |
| 290 | +* Fix portal redirect: leave sub-resource fetches alone, so Jetpack's admin-bar sparkline renders | |
| 291 | +* Multisite: Site Spaces — another admin opens on its own desktop | |
| 292 | +* App Framework: find an app's client bundle without its TypeScript source, so packaged installs open client-view apps | |
| 293 | +* Code Blue: read the error without resizing, and a read-only skill that investigates it | |
| 294 | +* Drafts: name a draft's window after the draft, not the whole row | |
| 295 | +* Mobile: the phone layer — wp.os.mode, full-screen apps, switcher, tab bar | |
| 296 | +* Mobile: one desk on a phone — fold every desktop, switch workspaces off | |
| 297 | +* Mobile: fit the installed app to a phone — display stamp, no zoom, anchored tab bar | |
| 298 | +* Mobile: the native apps on a phone — one tap, one pane, pinch, and a self-updating PWA | |
| 299 | +* PWA: the shell never reloads itself — a waiting worker, a build stamp, and a Reload the user takes | |
| 300 | +* Chromeless: fix in-page title actions a plugin has grouped | |
| 301 | +* Drafts: fix the row's interaction states and name its actions | |
| 302 | +* App icons: full-bleed tiles, three purposes, and an apple-touch-icon | |

| 304 | +* Apps: Posts, Pages, Users, User Edit, Plugins and Comments become App Framework apps | |
| 305 | +* Mio: the inner line the artwork always had | |
| 306 | +* Preserve rapid extended options saves | |

| 312 | +* Shell screen: boot the desktop from its own admin page instead of riding on the Dashboard | |
| 313 | +* Register --wp-admin-theme-color so chromeless documents never compute it to transparent | |
| 314 | +* Sync active Post/Page tab when navigating to Add Post from the Dock | |
| 315 | +* Attribute columns save to active window id | |
| 316 | +* Hotfix: a dock flyout holds a rail out, it never summons a parked one | |
| 317 | +* Revisions: open the revision browser in its own window | |
| 318 | +* Two low-contrast fixes in native windows: the shell document leaves quirks mode, and a neutral crumb stops pinning its paint inline | |
| 319 | +* Window channels: one set of books, so a window can leave its loading overlay | |
| 320 | +* Command palette: a harvested command that throws says so, instead of nothing at all | |
| 321 | +* Widgets: declare the card's token contract, so a widget's muted text stops landing at 3.81:1 | |
| 322 | +* In-window navigation: ask before painting, so a cancelled "Leave site?" stops stranding the window | |
| 262 | 323 | |

| 326 | +* Native-window script data ships once per handle, not once per window (boot document −8.9%) | |
| 327 | +* The boot config ships references, not copies (boot document −12.8%) | |
| 328 | +* The shell-bundle diet — five features leave desktop.min.js (−21% vs the v1.1.3 release) | |
| 329 | +* Tooling: mirror docs/ into the GitHub wiki on every trunk push | |
| 330 | +* Purge pre-1.0 history and reconcile every page with the code | |

| 358 | +* Trash: localize config before the lazy payload harvest | |
| 359 | +* Corkboard: disc nodes by default, pins one row away | |
| 360 | +* Unfocus effects: split view is not "behind" | |
| 361 | +* Menu-refresh probe: attach script data before the payload harvest | |
| 362 | +* Windows: companion stylesheets, and the Woo CSS stops riding every page | |

| 285 | -* Resizing a window and accidentally letting go over the desktop no longer minimizes everything | |
