Manage Plugins in Bulk or Individually

Controlling WordPress plugins at the same time is one of the key features of MainWP, as it allows you to manage all plugins across your Child Sites from one place.

So, stop wasting time updating your plugins manually on each WordPress site separately.

Auto-check for Abandoned Plugins

It checks the last updated status of plugins and alerts you if they are not updated in a specific amount of time. This gives you insight into if the author may have abandoned a plugin.

By default, MainWP Dashboard checks for possibly abandoned plugins and themes once per day.

Group Frequently Used Plugins

The quickest and easiest way to bulk install your frequently used plugins to another Child Site is to create a group of favorite plugins, and pull them on a Child Site(s).

So, no more searching or trying to remember the name of all the plugins that you use regularly!

Deactivate & Delete Plugins

With the easy plugin manager by MainWP, you can deactivate plugins on each website or search for a plugin on selected Child Sites, then deactivate it in just a click.

Once deactivated, you can easily delete plugins in bulk or individually on selected Child Sites.

Install & Activate Plugins

Bulk installing and activating plugins is one of the essential features of MainWP. Search from the repository, upload a zip file, or install from your favorite plugin’s directory.

In just a few seconds, you can install a WordPress plugin on one, a few, or all of your connected Child Sites.

Administrators Love MainWP

We have been using MainWP since 2014; we took a little break from it for less than a year testing out ManageWP but we were missing the flexibility, stability and control over our WordPress maintenance tool. So, in Sept 2019, we moved back over 75 sites back to MainWP and it was the best decision we ever make....

As WordPress Expert and WooCommerce Specialist I offer maintenance and service contracts to business customers. To keep track of updates, perform backups and bulk edit content I was in need of centralized, reliable and powerful management solution. Thank you MainWP for having my back...

MainWP makes it possible to have a business managing websites for others. I have tried other tools such as ManageWP and InfiniteWP but while those ultimately failed to work and let me down, MainWP has worked reliably and consistently for years. It's the best choice out there for my business.

Tim Colling

President at A Servant's Heart Web Design and Marketing

As plugin developers we use a lot of websites with different setups etc so we can test our plugins. MainWP helps us manage all our testing and production environments from one central dashboard. It made it really easy for us to simply change the setup of a handful of websites with just a few clicks.

Robert Abela

CEO at Melapress

I absolutely love MainWP. It makes maintaining a fleet of WordPress websites a snap. It’s so easy, that once it is set up, there is not much else to do. Freeing up tons of time to roll out new website designs for your clients. But don’t think that the power of MainWP stops at maintenance, with dozens of extensions, it has the power to do so much more…

We have almost five years with MainWP pushing updates to Wordpress sites. By triggering a site-backup in Wordpress, restoring is a breeze without the hassle with server backups. MainWP has years of proven reliability and trouble-free usage for us!
