A MCO2, além de configurar e instalar o WordPress na versão mais atualizada para seus clientes, disponibiliza o plugin WP SafePress, um sistema exclusivo que salvaguarda e melhora seu site ao mesmo tempo.

Por que a Hospedagem WordPress funciona melhor na MCO2?

A Hospedagem WordPress funciona melhor pois a MCO2 possui servidores otimizados para WordPress. A instalação de WordPress é diferente de uma instalação trivial, pois habilita imediatamente recursos como otimização de imagens, proteção da página de login, bloqueio de atividades maliciosas diretamente no firewall, cache avançado e HTTPS ativado por padrão. São plugins que potencializam seu WordPress para a máxima segurança e o máximo desempenho.

The Login as a User WordPress plugin lets you see the site exactly as another user sees it.

A customer says “my order is missing”. A member cannot open a course. A subscriber sees the wrong menu. Instead of asking for their password, you click Login as… next to their name. You are now that user. When you are done, click Go back to admin. That is the whole plugin.

Full setup, settings, and integrations are in the official documentation.

👉 Try the live demo. Credentials are shown on the login screen.

How it works

1. Go to Login as User → Users (or Users → All Users).
2. Click Login as next to the person you want to help.
3. You land on the frontend as that user. Use Go back to admin in the message bar (or the WordPress admin bar) to return to your own account.

No password is requested, stored, or exposed. You can also start from the user’s profile page. See Accessing the Settings.

Source Code

All PHP, JavaScript, and CSS in this plugin ship as readable source. The files named .min.js and .min.css in admin/ and public/ are not minified. The only minified file is the bundled Select2 library (admin/lib/select2/), whose source is at https://github.com/select2/select2.

External Services

The free version does not connect to any external service. Nothing leaves your server: settings are stored in your WordPress database, and switching users uses WordPress’s own login cookies.
