Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →
WP PlugIndex currently records WP Mechanic version 1.7.0 as active, updated 5d ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
WP Mechanic connects your site to a family of companion Android applications. Scan a QR code once on the plugin screen and the app can list and edit your WordPress users, browse WooCommerce orders, products and customers, and more – without you ever typing an admin password into a phone.
Included applications (all pair from the “WP Mechanic” menu)
WordPress Users
WordPress Users Management
WordPress Acrobatics (approve a temporary login from your phone)
WooCommerce Customers, Orders and Products
Alphabetic Pagination, Woo Coming Soon and WP Docs
Security by design
Pairing QR codes expire after a few minutes and work only once.
Every paired device gets its own random key; keys are never printed in a web page.
Repeated wrong keys from one IP address are throttled.
Temporary logins (Acrobatics) must be approved by a paired app, expire quickly and are single use.
Optional Pro add-on
A separate “pro” folder can be dropped into the plugin directory to unlock extra tools (activity log, per-device key revocation, access controls, IP allow-list, users CSV export). Remove the folder and everything above keeps working. org.
WP Mechanic does not call any external service. It only shows links that open when you click them:
Google Play (play.google.com) – download links for the companion apps on the plugin screen.
Google Meet (meet.google.com) – optional “need help” link shown on a product page when?help is added to the URL; the link can be changed per product with a meeting-link custom field.
