Prepare the first site
Put the client’s everyday menus in order and add dashboard guidance. Here, Pages comes first, with a client guide and a publishing checklist close at hand. Menu visibility never changes WordPress permissions.
Cedar House · A configured client workspaceView full size Review the next site’s changes
Export your configuration profile. On the next site, preview the current and incoming values before applying the import. Nothing is saved until you confirm.
Harbor House · Review before importingView full size Make the workspace their own
Apply the reviewed profile. The same menu, guidance and styling now greet the next client, with the welcome heading using their site’s name. Images need re-selecting on the destination site; personal preferences stay with each person.

For ongoing standards, use role defaults and multisite policies. Admin Lab does not provide a hosted dashboard for managing client sites. Network controls run within WordPress; optional signed Git synchronization requires technical setup.
Free Appearance · version 1.1.0
Make the editor feel familiar.
Free Appearance 1.1.0 provides light or dark Appearance, branding and comfort settings. Paid 1.2.2 includes these same tools alongside its workspace controls.

Common questions
Where do I get Free Appearance?
Install the separate Free Appearance 1.1.0 edition from the WordPress.org plugin directory. It does not require an account or license.
What happens if a paid subscription expires?
Installed paid features remain usable and locally editable after ordinary expiry. The last applied Fleet state stays in place. Renew for updates, paid support and new remote Fleet changes. Activation follows Freemius rules and your site allowance. Exhausted automatic-renewal retries cancel the license and pause paid features. Cancelled, revoked or unpaid blocking licenses do not gain continued use.
Can I move from Free Appearance to paid?
Yes. Back up the site, deactivate the free plugin, install the paid package and activate your license. The editions retain the same Appearance and personal preference data. Use one edition at a time.
Does a development or staging site use a paid slot?
Recognized nonproduction copies do not use a production allowance. A custom staging hostname may need an exception from support.
