About this plugin
Dashbread adds a logged-in app at /app to any WordPress site. Your public site is untouched and keeps whatever theme it has. Signed-in members get something else: an app with its own sidebar, header, dashboard, notifications and pages, where every page or plugin you put inside it looks like part of one product instead of a stack of WordPress screens.
Members never have to see wp-admin.
Everything in this plugin is fully functional, with no usage caps and no expiry.

What you get
- The app at /app – a responsive app shell (sidebar, header, breadcrumbs, light/dark mode) at a route you choose, with a conflict check.
- Hosted pages – tick “Show in Dashbread app” on any page or post and it opens inside the app, with a menu link, an icon and optional role visibility. Shortcodes from your other plugins (forms, courses, shops, support desks) work there as usual.
- Menus – an app sidebar, header and account menu under Appearance › Menus, with icons and per-role visibility per item.
- Dashboard – a real WordPress widget area. Use any widget; members can hide or collapse the ones they don’t need.
- Notifications – an in-app bell and a full notifications page, with built-in notices and an API ( dashbread_notify() ) for other plugins.
- Profile – profile, avatar, email change with confirmation, password, notification preferences, appearance and account deletion requests.
- Sign-in screens – login, registration and password reset screens that match the app, with optional redirects away from wp-login.php and wp-admin for members.
- Shortcodes – [dashbread_app_link], [dashbread_login], [dashbread_logged_in], [dashbread_logged_out], [dashbread_role], [dashbread_show], [dashbread_protect], [dashbread_expire] and [dashbread_user] for your public pages.
- Admin – a single Dashbread menu with Dashboard, Settings, Hosted pages, Notifications, Pro & Add-ons and Help screens.
Dashbread Pro (optional)
A separately sold Dashbread Pro adds staff tools such as members and companies screens, plans and memberships, messaging, email delivery, a drag-and-drop dashboard, a field builder and a customizer, plus optional add-ons. Dashbread works on its own without it.
Source code
The admin screens and app scripts ship built in assets/build/. Their readable source is included in the plugin under app/ and is built with esbuild ( npm run build in the project repository).
External services
Dashbread does not connect to any external service. It makes no outbound requests, sends no data about your site or your members anywhere, and loads no files from other sites. )
- The plans and add-ons on Dashbread › Pro & Add-ons and the guides on Dashbread › Help ship inside the plugin ( assets/data/ ). They are updated with each release.
- Links to dashbread.com and to the WordPress.org support forum on those screens open only when an administrator clicks them, like any other link.
- Dashbread Pro, a separate plugin sold on dashbread.com and not part of this plugin, connects to dashbread.com for license checks, updates, live prices and guides, and support messages sent from the Help screen. Its own readme describes what it sends. Nothing in this plugin does so, with or without Pro installed.
