Install

Download source zip No release zip yet

This is the repository archive. It installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow.

Install straight from GitHub with WP-CLI:

wp plugin install https://github.com/ruhulaminrevens/rar-admin-studio/archive/refs/heads/main.zip
No built-in updater. New versions won't appear under Dashboard → Updates. Install new releases yourself, or let Git Updater track the repository.
Readme github.com/ruhulaminrevens/rar-admin-studio ↗

Branded sign-in page, modern wp-admin design, role-aware Command Center dashboard, per-role menu cleanup and sign-in protection for the Nabiad WooCommerce store (nabiad.com).

Version 1.0.0 · WordPress 6.5+ (tested 7.1.3) · WooCommerce 8.0+ (tested 11.2.1) · PHP 7.4+ (tested 8.3) · HPOS on and off.

Install / update (Hostinger)

  1. Back up first: hPanel → Files → Backups (or download wp-content/plugins) and export the database in phpMyAdmin.
  2. WordPress → Plugins → Add Plugin → Upload Plugin → choose rar-admin-studio-v1.0.0.zip → Install → Activate.
  3. LiteSpeed Cache → Toolbox → Purge All (so the admin bar and sign-in page load the new CSS).
  4. Settings → Admin Studio:
    • Brand: upload a light/white logo for the dark panel; check the three colours.
    • Roles & menus: press Suggest under Shop manager and your staff role, review the ticks, save.
    • Security: if the site goes behind Cloudflare, switch How to read the visitor's network address to Cloudflare.
  5. Open /wp-login.php in a private window and sign in as a shop manager to check the result.

Rollback: deactivate the plugin (nothing else changes), or add define( 'RAR_AS_DISABLE', true ); to wp-config.php to switch everything off while keeping settings.

What it changes

Area Behaviour
Sign-in page Brand panel (logo, headline, text, optional photo), clean form, Caps Lock hint, "Signing in…" state. Field names, nonces and hooks unchanged, so "Sign in with Google" and password reset keep working.
wp-admin Side menu, top bar, page background, buttons, fields, list tables (sticky header), cards, notices, order-status and stock labels. Block editor, Elementor and Woodmart Theme Settings keep their own UI. Extra exclusions: Workspace → Excluded screens.
Dashboard Command Center: booked sales today / month / 7 days, orders to handle, latest orders, stock watch, best sellers (30 days), 14-day chart. Non-admins see only the Command Center (optional).
Roles & menus Hide menu items per role (never for administrators), optional 403 for hidden screens, landing page per role after sign-in.
Security Pause after 5 wrong passwords per network + username (20 per network), 20-minute pause, generic error, last sign-in per user, admin unpause list.

Figures on the Command Center

  • Booked sales = order totals (including shipping and tax as stored by WooCommerce) of orders created in the period, excluding pending, failed, cancelled, refunded, checkout-draft, trash; partial refunds created in the period on included orders are deducted. Site time zone (Asia/Dhaka).
  • Today vs yesterday compares with yesterday up to the same clock time.
  • Orders to handle = all orders not completed, cancelled, refunded, failed, draft or trash (custom statuses such as Confirmed are included).
  • Running low = stock-managed items with stock above 0 and at or below their own low-stock amount, else the store default.
  • Best sellers = quantity sold and line totals after discounts, excluding tax and shipping, last 30 days, included orders only.
  • Cached for 5 minutes; cleared when an order is created, changes status, is refunded or stock changes. Refresh recalculates at once.
  • These are operational figures, not accounting revenue. WooCommerce Analytics / Tally remain the reference.

Filters for developers: rar_as_excluded_statuses, rar_as_closed_statuses, rar_as_ui_excluded_screens; action rar_as_login_locked.
