About White Label Branding for WordPress 4.2.1

White Label Branding is for developers and web designers who hand WordPress sites to clients. It lets you replace WordPress branding in wp-admin and on the login screen, and decide which menus and features each user role can see.

The listing also describes a role and capability manager, including a fake administrator account that hides the real administrator from the users list. The file on record is version 4.2.1, released in May 2018, so test it with current WordPress on a staging site. Some listed options relate to WordPress 3.3 and are marked as deprecated.

Requirements

WordPress

Key features

Branding options: Add a favicon, developer logo, name and URL in the footer, and set a custom From email name and address.
Dashboard tool: Create unlimited custom dashboard metaboxes that accept HTML and shortcodes, and remove default dashboard widgets.
Menu control: Hide, rename and drag-and-drop reorder top and sub-level menus, and change menu icons.
Role and capability manager: Create roles, assign capabilities and set up a fake administrator account.
Admin bar and screen options: Hide admin bar items and set default Screen Options layouts for all users or one user.

Is it right for you?

A good fit for

Agencies delivering WordPress sites that should look like the agency's own product.
Developers who need to limit what clients can see in wp-admin.

Look elsewhere if

Multisite networks that need network-wide branding; the listings include a separate multisite version.
Anyone who wants end-user features instead of admin customisation.

How to install White Label Branding for WordPress 4.2.1

1
Download the file
Open My Account → Downloads and download the product. If the archive contains several zips (documentation, child theme, licensing files), you need the one named after the product.
2
Upload it to WordPress
In your dashboard go to Plugins → Add New Plugin → Upload Plugin and choose the zip.
3
Install and activate
Click Install Now, then Activate. If an older or free copy is already installed, WordPress offers to replace it with the uploaded version.

Notes for this product

Access control on dashboard metaboxes by user role needs the vendor's separate Pages by User Role plugin.

Setup: using White Label Branding for WordPress 4.2.1

Test on a staging site. The file dates from May 2018, so check it with your current WordPress version.
Activate and open the settings. Look for the plugin's menu in wp-admin after activation.
Enable branding. Add your logo, footer credit and email sender details.
Hide menus. Choose which menus and admin bar items to hide for client roles.
Check as a client. Log in as a test user with the client role and confirm what is visible.

Common problems and fixes

You hid a menu and now cannot reach a setting you need.

Why it happens: Menus hidden for your own role disappear from the sidebar.
How to fix it: Use the plugin's administrator exception feature to keep your own account unrestricted, or reverse the setting.

“The link you followed has expired.” when uploading

Why it happens: The zip is larger than your server's PHP upload limit (upload_max_filesize / post_max_size).
How to fix it: Raise the upload limit in your hosting control panel, or unzip the file and upload the folder to wp-content/plugins with your host's file manager or SFTP.

“The package could not be installed. No valid plugins were found.”

Why it happens: The uploaded zip is a bundle (or a theme), not the plugin itself.
How to fix it: Unzip the download once and upload the inner zip named after the plugin.

“Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.”

Why it happens: Usually a PHP version older than the plugin needs, or a second copy of the same plugin (for example the free version) still active.
How to fix it: Check your PHP version under Tools → Site Health → Info, deactivate any other copy of the plugin, and enable WP_DEBUG_LOG to see the exact error.

Licence or “updates unavailable” notices

Why it happens: The developer's licence key isn't included. Features that call the developer's servers (template libraries, cloud APIs, automatic updates) need it.
How to fix it: Everything that runs locally works without it. For a newer file, use Request an update from your account.
