Description

The Dashboard Lock / Clean And Lock add-on restricts access to the WordPress dashboard of managed child sites by hiding menus, plugins, and administrative screens that the end customer doesn’t need to see. Built for agencies and service providers that manage multiple sites via MainWP, it keeps the sub-site interface clean and protected, preventing users from changing critical settings or accessing sensitive wp-admin areas.
