Agency Toolkit

The Agency Toolkit plugin provides a lightweight way for agency owners, freelancers and website owners to quickly debug, optimize, and streamline the WordPress experience without needing a dozen or more additional plugins. This plugin came out of a need for our own agency to standardize the WordPress settings across all of our maintenance clients. This plugin saves time and maintenance by reducing the need for many other third party plugins and ensures only privileged users can access these settings.

Each setting can be enabled or disabled as needed to keep things light and customized to your own needs. Currently, we support the following with more to be added:

General Settings:

What if I lock myself out of the Agency Toolkit interface?

We have you covered. com’ is the WordPress website root domain and ’email’ is the email associated with your WordPress admin user account. This will send a new email to your email address with a link to reset the ‘Limit the users who can view the Agency Toolkit Settings Page’ setting.

This way all WordPress admin users can access access the Agency Toolkit plugin interface. You can then re-select the users who should be able to access the interface in that setting.

Enjoy!
