What it does
If you host client sites on Pressable and manage them with MainWP, you usually end up switching between two dashboards. This extension closes that gap. It requires MainWP and connects to one or more Pressable accounts using your Client ID and Secret, then pulls your Pressable sites into the dashboard you already use. It matches those sites by primary URLs and custom domains, so each one lines up with the right MainWP entry.
Once connected, the hosting tasks sit in one overview table. You can create new WordPress or WooCommerce sites with a chosen PHP version and data center, disable or delete sites, and move between production and staging. Backups can be listed, downloaded, restored or applied to another site, and phpMyAdmin opens straight from the dashboard. Bulk actions help agencies that look after many Pressable sites at once.
Best for
- Agencies hosting many client sites on Pressable
- Freelancers already managing sites through MainWP
- Developers who want backups and databases in one place
