Environment Indicator adds a prominent visual indicator to the WordPress admin bar showing the current site environment. This high-visibility indicator helps prevent accidental changes on production sites by making the environment instantly recognizable to logged-in users.<\/p>\n\n
Perfect for developers, agencies, and teams managing multiple environments (development, staging, production) across different sites.<\/p>\n\n
Smart Environment Detection<\/strong>\n* Automatically detects environment using WordPress core constants ( Customization Options<\/strong>\n* Custom Colors<\/strong> - Match your branding or personal preferences for each environment\n* Custom Labels<\/strong> - Rename DEV\/STAGING\/LIVE to LOCAL, UAT, PRODUCTION, or anything you prefer\n* Role-Based Visibility<\/strong> - Control which user roles can see the indicator (great for client sites)<\/p>\n\n Visual Enhancements<\/strong>\n* Admin bar label (always visible)\n* Full admin bar background coloring (high-visibility option)\n* Browser tab prefix - instantly identify environments across multiple tabs\n* Top border in wp-admin screens\n* Admin footer watermark\n* Dashboard widget showing environment status and system information<\/p>\n\n Export\/Import<\/strong>\n* Export settings as JSON to deploy across multiple sites\n* Import settings from JSON file\n* Perfect for agencies managing client sites with consistent configurations<\/p>\n\n Multisite Compatible<\/strong>\n* Full support for WordPress multisite installations\n* Network-wide settings when network-activated\n* Per-site settings when activated on individual sites<\/p>\n\n Detection runs in this order:<\/p>\n\n You can always override automatic detection and manually select the environment.<\/p>\n\n The indicator only displays for logged-in users. Public visitors see no performance impact or visual changes.<\/p>\n\n Development of this plugin happens on GitHub: https:\/\/github.com\/BSolveIT\/environment-indicator<\/p>\n\n Bug reports and feature requests are welcome!<\/p>\n\n\n The indicator will appear immediately in your admin bar using automatic detection.<\/p>\n\n\n No. The indicator only displays for logged-in users who can see the WordPress admin bar. There is zero impact on public visitors.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes! Enable custom colors in Settings \u2192 Environment Indicator and choose any color for DEV, STAGING, and LIVE environments.<\/p><\/dd>\n Absolutely. Enable custom labels and rename them to anything you want: LOCAL, UAT, PRODUCTION, or company-specific terms.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. When network-activated, settings are managed network-wide from Network Admin \u2192 Settings \u2192 Environment Indicator.<\/p><\/dd>\n Environment Indicator automatically detects environments on:\n* WP Engine (WPE_ENVIRONMENT)\n* Pantheon (PANTHEON_ENVIRONMENT)\n* Kinsta (KINSTA_ENV_TYPE)\n* Flywheel (FLYWHEEL_CONFIG_DIR)\n* Any host using WP_ENVIRONMENT_TYPE or WP_ENV constants<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. Enable role-based visibility and select which user roles can see the environment indicator. This is useful for client sites where you don't want clients to see the indicator.<\/p><\/dd>\n No. Environment Indicator is visual only. It does not restrict editing, block actions, or change how WordPress behaves. It simply provides a clear visual reminder of which environment you're working in.<\/p><\/dd>\n If no environment constants or recognized subdomain patterns are found, the site defaults to LIVE. You can override this using manual mode in the settings.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes! Use the Export\/Import feature to download your settings as JSON and import them on other sites. Perfect for agencies deploying the same configuration across client sites.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes! Enable \"Browser Tab Prefix\" in Visual Enhancements and your page titles will show the environment, e.g. [DEV] Dashboard or [LIVE] Edit Post. This makes it easy to identify environments when you have multiple tabs open.<\/p><\/dd>\n Add one of these lines to your For WordPress 5.5+:\n define( 'WP_ENVIRONMENT_TYPE', 'development' ); \/\/ or 'staging' or 'production'<\/p>\n\n For legacy Bedrock:\n define( 'WP_ENV', 'development' ); \/\/ or 'staging' or 'production'<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\nWP_ENVIRONMENT_TYPE<\/code>)\n* Supports popular hosting providers: WP Engine, Pantheon, Kinsta, Flywheel\n* Legacy Bedrock constant support (WP_ENV<\/code>)\n* Subdomain-based heuristics (dev.example.com, staging.example.com)\n* Manual override option for custom setups<\/p>\n\nHow It Works<\/h4>\n\n
