Set up White-Label
With White Label you replace the plugins' branding with your own. That affects the plugin interface itself first, but through a second card also the entry in the WordPress plugin list and the menu item. Every field is saved immediately after you enter it, and it is applied only with the “White-Label active” switch.
Changing over the interface
- Open the plugin's entry in the WordPress menu and click “White Label” (in German: „White-Label“) in the sidebar under “System”
- Switch on the “White-Label active” toggle
- Enter your own name under “Brand name” — it replaces “KakapoWP” in the sidebar and the header
- Choose your own color under “Accent color”; it overrides the product color
- Enter the address of an image file under “Logo” if the product icon is to be replaced
- “Hide KakapoWP notice” replaces the note “KakapoWP Suite” in the footer of the sidebar with the brand name
- “Footer text” replaces that line with a text of your own and takes precedence over the generated line
- The logo is limited to 19 pixels; a square image fits best
- The “Preview” card right at the bottom shows the brand name next to the product icon — your own logo does not appear there, but at the top of the sidebar after a reload
Appearance in WordPress
The second card is called “Appearance in WordPress” and takes effect outside the plugin page. Empty fields each leave the original value in place there.
- “Plugin name” and “Plugin description” replace the name and the text in the plugin list
- “Provider” replaces “By …”, and “Provider address” links that name
- Without a provider address of your own, the link is dropped entirely instead of continuing to point to the manufacturer
- In the row below the plugin, entries that point to wordpress.org or to KakapoWP are dropped; the version number stays
- “Menu label” renames the entry in the WordPress menu, “Menu icon” swaps its icon
- “Support address” appears as an email link in the footer of the sidebar
- If “Plugin name” stays empty, the name is formed from the brand name and the product name; if “Provider” stays empty, the brand name appears there
What is permitted for the menu icon
Permitted are a Dashicon class or an embedded SVG that begins with data:image/svg+xml;base64,…. An external web address is rejected, because the icon sits in every admin page and would load from outside on every call. An embedded SVG is decoded and looked through: scripts, event attributes, embedded images and references to the outside lead to rejection, as does anything longer than 32768 characters.
