Use of “Jump to WP Admin” with Child Sites Protected by HTTP Basic Authentication

If your child site is protected by HTTP Basic Authentication (commonly added via .htaccess), the “Jump to WP Admin” feature in your MainWP Dashboard will not work for that site.

This is due to how browsers handle HTTP Basic Auth. Browsers and HTML forms don’t support passing authentication credentials as part of a link or form submission in a way that would allow the Dashboard to bypass the auth prompt.
