This seems cool, but can a WP management tool really be powerful if it isn’t just embedding the actual WP admin page? Since it means you can’t configure plugins

This seems cool, but can a WP management tool really be powerful if it isn’t just embedding the actual WP admin page? Since it means you can’t configure plugins that add their own configuration and stuff…
- toomuchtodo 2y agoCould be making the same http/rest calls?
- mikeywazowski 2y agoYeah this is what I plan to do, although it's not implemented yet.
- aprilnya 2y agoSure but adding support and UI for every single WP plugin that exists isn’t feasible
- toomuchtodo 2y agoOnly need to support the most popular ones.
- aprilnya 2y agoThere are so many WP plugins that “support the most popular ones”, depending on your criteria, either still means supporting thousands of plugins, or means it won’t support the plugins I use
- mikeywazowski 2y agoIndeed. The extension to WP-CLI is open source so if you're seriously interested, make a PR and I'll update the UI to accommodate it.
- mikeywazowski 2y agoYeah that's a fair point. The purpose of the application isn't to provide fine-grained control over plugins etc yet.. However, I do intend to add settings configuration for some plugins. Which plugins I'll do this for depends on their popularity and whether they have WP-CLI compatibility built in. In the meantime I may see if I can also embed the WP admin page so the user has quick access if they want to change anything. Thanks for your feedback!
