Something else on your mind?
Ask the people behind PanelKindYes. PanelKind Free works without an account or licence. It includes one active custom client View, three widgets, one private information page, one custom role, all seven widget types, all twelve themes and every colour control. Download the ZIP, upload it to WordPress and get started.
Every paid plan includes the same Pro features. The only difference is the number of separate WordPress installations covered: 1 for Single site, 5 for Small studio and 1,000 for Agency. Plans are billed annually in GBP, excluding VAT. Technical configuration limits apply to all Pro plans.
PanelKind works inside WordPress administration. It helps you tailor the dashboard, navigation, guidance and access for signed-in users. It does not redesign the public website or create a public client portal.
Yes. Save a draft and preview the actual WordPress admin as a role or user before publishing. The preview is browse-only, so you can inspect the experience without changing live content. Drafts, preview, revision history and recovery are included in Free.
Your published workspaces and existing restrictions are retained. Whether Pro features continue depends on the licence’s feature entitlement; updates require valid update entitlement. If the installation falls back to Free, adding new Pro capacity or changing paid settings requires an active entitlement. Your published setup is not deleted.
A single-site WordPress installation running WordPress 6.6 or newer and PHP 8.1 or newer. WordPress Multisite is not supported. In version 1.7.2, Free updates are installed manually from a newer ZIP; paid updates use Freemius while update-entitled.
Start with Free. Make it yours. Grow when you’re ready.
