Overview

Nativus Dashboard replaces the stock WordPress admin experience with a calm, branded workspace for you and your clients. Choose the dashboard widgets that matter, design a login screen that looks like your brand, and move noisy third-party admin notices into one tidy place, without replacing any WordPress core feature. It will be free on WordPress.org and takes a few minutes to set up with the guided wizard.

Login Page Studio

Design the login, register and lost-password screens with templates, backdrops, a contrast overlay and a live desktop, tablet and mobile preview. Built on the core login form, so 2FA and security plugins keep working.

Colour schemes and branding

Seven preset schemes (Default Slate, Deep Dark, Emerald Garden, Royal Purple, Sunset Orange, Ruby and Light Mode) or full hex control, plus your own logo, support email and footer credit.

How It Works

STEP 01

Install and activate

Add Nativus Dashboard from Plugins, Add New (or upload the zip) and activate it. A guided setup opens on first run.

STEP 02

Run the setup wizard

Choose your dashboard widgets, a colour scheme, your branding, a login screen style and admin experience options, with a live preview at every step. Skip it any time.

STEP 03

Control who sees what

Set role and user permissions, hide plugins from client menus without disabling them, and tidy noisy third-party admin notices into the Notice Center.

STEP 04

Hand it to your client

Add YouTube, Vimeo or MP4 tutorials to the dashboard so clients can help themselves, and white-label the footer with your agency details.

Frequently asked questions

Is Nativus Dashboard really free?

Yes. It launches free and open source (GPL v2 or later) on WordPress.org and will update through WordPress.org.

Will it break WordPress core or my other plugins?

No. It styles and organizes the admin and keeps core update, security and maintenance screens native. Hiding plugins from a role is non-destructive and reversible.

Does the Login Page Studio work with 2FA and security plugins?

Yes. It is built around the core WordPress login form, so two-factor and security plugins keep working. An emergency constant in wp-config.php restores the default login URL if you ever need it.

Does it work with WooCommerce?

Yes. Optional dashboard widgets show revenue, orders, inventory and top products, with Chart.js bundled locally.

Does it send my data anywhere?

Only when you use a feature that needs an outside service, such as the optional Google PageSpeed widget or YouTube thumbnails. Every external service is documented in the plugin readme.
