    Shame there is no compatibility for Safari. Hopefully that is on the roadmap.

  • Hey Dennis.

    Looks good. Is there a way to connect it to a dashboard behind .htacess/.htpasswd protection?

    One day it would be really nice to connect to more than 1 dashboard too.

    Cheers!

      Hi Steve,

      We are adding support for .htaccess/.htpasswd and HTTP Basic Auth in the next version of the extension.

      Please feel free to make a suggestion about multi-Dash support on our feedback site. That way, others can vote for it, letting us know which features our users want the most. https://feedback.mainwp.com
