Features & Capabilities

The MainWP Browser Extension empowers WordPress site managers to stay updated effortlessly. It connects to your MainWP Dashboard through the REST API, enabling you to monitor available WordPress core, plugin, theme, and translation updates without logging into the dashboard. You can customize the update check interval from 15 minutes to once daily, ensuring timely notifications tailored to your preference.

Beyond monitoring updates, the extension tracks changes made to plugins and themes outside of the MainWP Dashboard. Featuring quick access links to relevant Dashboard pages, it streamlines maintenance actions. Compatible with all Chromium-based browsers, setup is simple by generating and inputting API keys via your MainWP Dashboard. This tool is ideal for developers and site managers seeking efficient multisite update management in a single glance.

User Reviews

It causes styling/rendering issues with multiple sites. One good example is Slack in the browser where it changes the text color and can't see what you write

Unfortunately it is causing rendering issues on unrelated websites. Like sidebars appearing on the wrong side of the page and things like that. I just barely got it set up and already deactivating.

Installed and konfigured, but it does not sync. It also interferes with the display of various websites.

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

MainWP Browser Extension requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
