wisegear Admin Lab

wisegear Admin Lab makes supported WordPress admin screens feel like your workspace. The free Appearance edition works indefinitely without a license key, account, subscription, or connection to wisegear.

• Light, dark, system, and native WordPress appearance.
• Site or agency name, logos for light and dark backgrounds, and a brand color with derived accessible control colors.
• Comfortable or compact spacing, reduced motion, and higher contrast.
• Personal appearance and comfort preferences in each user’s profile.
• An optional native WordPress admin color scheme that respects a person’s existing color choice.
• A toolbar appearance switch, native-appearance recovery, and a temporary per-user safe mode.
• A site-wide WGAL_SAFE_MODE recovery constant.

Appearance starts disabled. Preview your settings at Settings > Admin Lab, then enable when ready. Styling is limited to supported core admin screens; it does not restyle arbitrary third-party plugin pages or your public website.

The separate paid Admin Lab edition adds Copy, Environment, Toolbar customization, Notices, Dashboard customization, Menu, Roles, and Fleet tools. Those modules are not included in this plugin. Free Appearance has no time limit. Learn about the paid edition at https://shop.wisegear.com/admin-lab.

Privacy and external services

This free edition does not include analytics, telemetry, Freemius, licensing calls, or an external updater. It makes no plugin-initiated requests to external services. WordPress.org handles updates through WordPress. Documentation and product links open only when you choose them. Logos are selected from your own WordPress media library.

Settings and personal preferences are stored on your WordPress site. Deactivation and uninstall retain them so reinstalling or switching editions preserves your setup. Images remain in the media library. See the documentation for data retention and removal instructions.
