About this plugin
CiviCRM Admin Utilities modifies CiviCRM’s behaviour in single site and multisite installs. It does a number of useful things:
- Supplies a theme for CiviCRM admin screens that is more in keeping with WordPress (see below)
- Modifies the styling of the CiviCRM menu to fix a number of issues
- Fixes the appearance of the Shoreditch extension in WordPress admin
- Fixes the appearance of the WordPress Access Control form where necessary
- Offers options to prevent various CiviCRM Stylesheets from loading on the front-end
- Adds a handy CiviCRM Shortcuts menu to the WordPress Admin Bar
- Allows you to choose which Post Types the CiviCRM shortcode button appears on
- In WordPress multisite, allows you to hide CiviCRM on sub-sites
- Allows you to remove “administer CiviCRM” capabilities from sub-site administrators
- Allows suppression of the “change of email” notification when a CiviCRM Contact’s primary email is changed
- Gives an overview of the relationships between Users and Contacts via the “Manage Users” screen
“Wellow Brook” RiverLea Stream
2 introduces a new theme (RiverLea Stream) for CiviCRM admin screens that is more in keeping with WordPress and respects the Administration Colour Scheme that you have chosen on your WordPress Profile screen. It can be enabled on the CiviCRM Admin Utilities settings page.
Feedback is welcome – please open an issue on the plugin’s GitHub repository if you find any bugs or have suggestions for improvements.
“Radstock” CiviCRM Admin Theme
5 introduced a theme for CiviCRM admin screens that was more aligned with WordPress styles. If you have enabled Radstock it will stay enabled, but it is recommended that you upgrade to Wellow Brook because Radstock will no longer be supported in future.
Requirements
39 but recommends you keep up to date with both.
Notes
If you have installed the Shoreditch extension for CiviCRM, then this plugin does its best to make it compatible with WordPress. 1-alpha25 now makes it very difficult to override the margin applied to the body tag on the front end of your site, so you will have to do this yourself.
