Admin Columns is made for you

Developers

As a developer, you usually work on creating a WordPress website, store, or application. Making sure your client is happy is often an important aspect, even if you are your own client. This is where Admin Columns will come in to help your client see, find and manage their content in a very user-friendly way. The result? Happier clients who need less support! The more content your client has, the more you can rely on Admin Columns to keep it organized.

Admin Columns will let you choose what works best for your client. Decide if they can override your settings, have your settings as a fallback or just let them take over. As you usually have a good idea of what your client’s needs are, you can configure useful overviews for them beforehand. Whether you want to do that directly on production, seed it from export, or push it with Git is entirely up to you.

You can take advantage of our integrations with other plugins. Especially the tight integration with Advanced Custom Fields is being appreciated widely by developers. Other popular integrations with developers are WooCommerce, Gravity Forms, JetEngine, and Meta Box.

The list of features is too long to list here (but worth it to check out) so we’ll stick to what is most important: developers tell us they love using custom field columns and the ability to filter, sort, and edit them directly from the overview pages.

Varying per use case, Admin Columns can easily save a couple of hours or even days per project. Making it an easy make-or-buy decision. And with a money-back guarantee, it’s also a safe decision. And if you need support, we got your back. And that’s not just what we say about that.

And last but not least, there are some things that are only for developers, just for you:

• Storing columns in PHP, which allows for integration with Git and deploying your code to production
• We have hooks and filters in place to accommodate those edge cases or custom wishes
• Support for Composer to install and update Admin Columns
• Export and import settings. Very useful for backup, seeding, or debugging
• We have a special section in our documentation 💙

It’s super easy to use and adds really great functionality. I just think it’s brilliant.

Technical managers like CTO’s

Professionals managing developer teams are constantly on the lookout for new ways to help their highly skilled team members save time.

Writing custom code in the open source WordPress community is only a necessity when there are no other options left. So why use code for customizing your list tables when you can benefit from Admin Columns Pro to improve the WordPress admin?

The uses of our plugin depend of course on the field of expertise of our CTO customers, but vary amongst:

• Realizing increased productivity of the WordPress admin for hybrid WordPress or WooCommerce websites
• Getting more out of plugins such as Advanced Custom Fields and Gravity Forms when these plugins result in a lot of data or content creation (for instance, our plugin lets you alter Gravity Forms entries from the list table view!)
• Saving time by realizing functional list tables which you can save to create custom dashboards

Are you curious about all the add-on possibilities we offer? On our integration page you can learn all about them.

Admin Columns is one of those plugins that you enjoy using and coming up with new use cases for.

Digital Agencies

Our customers working for digital agencies have their clients’ marketing goals in mind when building WordPress websites for them. Moreover, their clients are at a non-developer skill level and need the WordPress admin to work more intuitively.

The main purposes that agency professionals have in mind when using Admin Columns Pro are:

• Making sure the WordPress admin is clean and clear, removing unnecessary data from WordPress list tables, by combining almost all our features
• Helping clients to easily update their content without needing the help of their (external) developer, by showing them bulk or inline edit
• Preparing customized list tables for different users, saving their clients the time to keep looking for data manually
• Making sure that SEO improvements such as title updates or optimizing meta descriptions can be processed quickly by working from the list tables with inline edit or bulk edit (and yes, we offer an integration with Yoast SEO 😊)

Event management

Some of our agency customers build WordPress websites for their clients that are in the event business. Subsequently, our plugin is more than useful for optimizing the WordPress admin of event platforms.

Check out our business example for events and our integration with the events calendar plugin.

Much needed functionality, great code and a very good group of developers behind it. Just awesome!

Ecommerce specialists 

Webshop owners and other ecommerce specialists working for digital platforms use our plugin for very specific needs, mostly related to their WooCommerce website. Like other content heavy websites, managing custom post types can become very time consuming, and improving the WordPress admin can become quite crucial.

Our ecommerce customers use our plugin mostly to:

• Update prices in a very fast way or bulk edit WooCommerce products themselves by using our bulk edit feature
• Adjust specific WooCommerce products without having to open product pages or custom posts separately with inline edit
• Organize their media library very effectively by displaying custom field data for alt values, thumbnails and other image descriptions and be able to alter them fast with bulk edit or inline edit
• Building customized list tables for reporting and letting users have their own custom product views with sorting and smart filtering
• Checking their inventory and exporting WooCommerce products and list table data by exporting them to .csv
• New WooCommerce users sometimes need to migrate product data from their previous platform to their WooCommerce website. The additional overview functionality that Admin Columns Pro offers helps you in making sure migrating all the custom posts and (product) pages goes as planned
