As a WordPress user, I have been absolutely blown away by the WordPress Manager for WHMCS. This plugin has completely transformed the way I manage my WordPress websites and has made my job so much easier.
Firstly, the WordPress Manager for WHMCS is incredibly user-friendly and easy to use. It has a sleek and intuitive interface that makes it simple to manage multiple WordPress installations from a single location. This has saved me a lot of time and hassle, as I no longer have to log in to each website individually to make updates.
The plugin also provides a wide range of features and functionalities that have allowed me to customize my WordPress installations to suit my specific needs. I have been able to manage themes, plugins, and even perform backups and restorations all from within the WordPress Manager for WHMCS. This has been a real game-changer for me, as I now have complete control over my WordPress websites in one place.
Additionally, the support from the team at WHMCS has been outstanding. They have been quick to respond to any questions or concerns I've had, and have been very helpful in resolving any issues I've encountered. This level of support is truly impressive and has given me a lot of confidence in using this plugin.
Overall, I would highly recommend the WordPress Manager for WHMCS to anyone looking for a powerful and user-friendly tool to manage their WordPress installations. It's an excellent plugin that has made a real difference to my work, and I would give it a well-deserved 5-star rating.
Richard Madison @richard1130
I would buy this module just for the WordPress staging feature, which simplifies things for our customers. Add to this all of the amazing other features, and buying this is a no-brainer. This module increases our customers' satisfaction with our hosting and leads to less churn. Thanks MG.

We have been customers of ModulesGarden for a few years and we have been following its growth and also the evolution of its modules. Today we already use many of the modules, more than 10, and WordPress Manager is a strong partner in our business model. The module has improved a lot. Our customers loved the interface and many replaced the softaculos for WordPress Manager. The module works very well and has been improving and fixing bugs over time. There are still some things missing, like being able to create a plugin pack with custom plugins and not just WordPress.org. Improving the translation, because with each insertion of new features, there is a lot to translate and this has been a lot of work. But if your language is English this won't be a problem. We use Lagom Theme and the complete integration with Lagom is seamless. We are very satisfied. WordPress Manager was not the first product we purchased. But it was the main encouragement for us to gain confidence in MadulesGarden and today we enjoy the use of more than 10 of its modules. You can buy. It's 5 stars for sure. Their support has improved a lot too and you should take the time difference into account. We had a lot of trouble with that, until we understood that they are in Poland, friend. And there is a difference of 05 or 06 hours here for us. When we understand this, the support time has already been considerably resolved. We have been very well attended. And I must mention the documentation. Everything is well documented for you to be able to do a smooth installation and updates. We never had problems with installation or updates. I think that's it.

It's a good concept to manage wordpress installation from the client area, but unfortunately my clients found it hard to use since was requiring php memory limit tp be increased to be able to see their installed themes and plugins. I don't know if im the only one with this issue, but non experts clients found it difficult to use.
Joanna Byjoś @JoannaModulesGarden
Let me leave a word of explanation here in addition to what I already made clear via ticket. Thanks to your feedback, WordPress Manager For WHMCS has been updated with optimizations aimed specifically at the particular area of operation that your clients may have previously found problematic. Please feel free to reach me anytime, and I will gladly provide you with a free dev license so you can experiment with this new functionality before introducing it officially to your clients.
Owner@ModulesGardenDylan Jackson @dylan6920
Really good plugin for managing Wordpress inside the client area of WHMCS. If allowing your clients to create staging sites, install or backup their wordpress websites right inside the client area sounds good to you, then this module is what you need. The team behind it is also extremely professional and helpful should you ever need it.
InfoBahn Sales @infobahn7009
Great products, works as advertised. When we suggested some features to this module they were kind enough to add it to their roadmap.
A G @alexis5997
We are users of ModulesGarden, of this particular module for several years. In general terms, this module is part of the core of our line of business, it is vital to our offer and it is great.
Certainly, with certain updates it tends to present bugs, however the ModulesGarden support has evolved for the better over time and we are quite satisfied with this module.
E.J. A @ernie1996
Having being Impressed by their coding practices and great design in their products, I've already purchased about 3 of their modules - cPanel Extended, WordPress Manager, and DNS manager. Their modules are superior to any of their competitors and they have a knowledgeable team that can assist with the configurations of modules. Above satisfied!
Hamed @hamed2279
This module give clients a best user experience and reduced a lot of tickets that are submitting.
Great experience and recommend to everyone.
Ganje Host @hamze3147
It is about 1 year that we have installed this module. in this 1 year this module has reduced tickets that are opening in technical department.
I highly recommend this efficient module...
Yuri Karamian @yuri3009
Great experience for the user and nice to have features.
5 stars, as the module deserves.
Brian Z @brian7625
This module saved us a ton of manual work to offer our clients a much better user experience. I just hope they soon restore the integration with the latest cPanel Extended module.
Thomas G. @thomas3584
A great module for hosting providers who centralize around WordPress. This module integrates with ModuleGarden's other module cPanel Extended which I highly recommend for all cPanel hosting providers.
Ravi Raj @ravi2272
Highly recommended product for hosting provider to make WordPress easy to handle using WHMCS itself. works smoothly with no issues so far it's effective to use and provider focused function on WHMCS itself.
Aubrey Clark @aubrey4662
This is an addendum to my prior review.
As a web designer since 2000 I have dealt with a lot of customer service nightmares. Some are due to language barriers, some are due to the company simply offering customer service as a second though and some are due to incompetence.
Module Gardens customer service is all three. It is easily the worst customer service that I have ever encountered.
I will give you a brief description of my CURRENT issue, this is not addressing the issues that have been ongoing since the inception of this plugin, this is just my current issue.
We changed from cPanel to Direct Admin on July 23rd. After the switch I decided that I would PAY modules Garden ($49) to reinstall their Wordpress module for me since I was already dealing with a learning curve from moving to DirectAdmin.
As of this writing, 8-17-20 we still do not have a working product. I am not going to spend the time listing the countless times we have had to try to get them to fix all of the errors and set the cron so that the module works because it's well over a dozen times.
The person who replies to this from Module Gardens is going to tell you that we did not give them full server access. We Did. In fact, we have given them access on three different occasions. Once when we signed up (through their password dropdown) Next in the body of our ticket and finally we replied to the ticket and let a copy of our credential 150 times so that we were sure they could not miss it for the third time.
My review above from 8 months ago was harsh because we had a similar problem with them. The company apologized, gave us half price on the product and installed it correctly. We altered our review at their request.
It is apparent that that bad experience was not the exception, but it is the rule with ModulesGarden.
DO NOT GET THIS PRODUCT UNLESS YOU ARE PREPARED TO HAVE PROBLEMS AT EVERY SERVER CHANGE, AND FOR IT TO NOT DO ALL OF THE FEATURES THAT IT CLAIMS IT WILL DO.
I have documentation of everything I have said, and sooooo much more.
Joanna Byjoś @JoannaModulesGarden
Aubrey, back in 2020 we put in place unique compensatory measures to respectfully address the inconvenience, and afterwards made countless attempts to discuss this further with you - every single one of the messages can be easily reviewed in our client area. Hopefully this brief note will encourage you to answer our emails as we remain resolute to reach a conflict-free settlement.
Owner@ModulesGardenKevin Perrow @kperrow
This is such a unique and awesome module for WHMCS if your business is WordPress focused.
John Cook @john5199
It has some nice features but isn't a complete product. It has a major design flaw that makes it unworkable in one situation. If wordpress is configured to install on hosting account module creation it doesn't include a username or password, and those details are then missing from the email.
Support hasn't been spectacular either. The entire free trial was wasted waiting for a reply, so it has now cost them a $100 a year sale.
A disappointing experience and result as I genuinely like another product of theirs I'm using
Joanna Byjoś @JoannaModulesGarden
Hi John! Your last emails let me believe that you felt willing to give WordPress Manager For WHMCS another try, especially since the feature you requested was implemented into the module back in July 2020. I have been trying to fix you up with a free trial for the last few months, but sadly cannot seem to reach you. If you see this reply - please get in touch!
Owner@ModulesGardenAubrey Clark @aubrey4662
This plugin is amazing, there's nothing better on the WHMCS marketplace. They do have some work to do on their customer service, at least the person who was helping me. After my initial customer service experience, a supervisor got evolved and properly addressed our issue. I look forward to using other Modules Garden modules in the future.
Waranugraha @waranugraha6026
Im very interested with this module, is there any free trial to try implemented this module on my web hosting?
maazouz @maazouz5247
Hi,
I am looking for a module to create wordpress themes for my customers and make them available the essential plugins, is this one going to help me do that? and can you please provide me more photos to see closer how to do that.
thanks a lot for your response
Dominika Sondej @dominika7563
You have definitely come to the right place! With WordPress Manager For WHMCS you can create fully customizable instance images and let customers add WordPress installations using these very images of WordPress.
Formerly@ModulesGardenYou are most welcome to consult the module’s documentation which explains through both written instructions and screenshots how to do that: https://www.docs.modulesgarden.com/WordPress_Manager_For_WHMCS#Instance_Images
If you still have further questions about the module’s tools, we will love to have a chat with you via a ticket: https://www.modulesgarden.com/support/ticket/product-presales
Ashley Russell @ashley7058
Great product and great support. Highly recommended.
Savas Network @savasnetwork
We are using WordPress Manager for nearly 6 months. I can easily say that this is one of the most innovative plugin for WHMCS. Providing an user interface for developers and marketing companies to control multiple WordPress installations with one control panel is a powerful feature for web hosting business.
Kevin Lengele @kevin7085
I have had no luck with ModuelGardens WordPress Manager or really any of their plugins. I would love that they really spend some time on WordPress Manger as it could be really useful. We have had lots of problems with WordPress Manager detecting WP installs. So far its junk and so is their support. I would not recommend this plugin or any of their plugins.
To be honest I think most of these reviews are not real reviews and have not even used their software.
Joanna Byjoś @JoannaModulesGarden
As explained via ticket, problems may occur if you keep using the module in a version that is not compatible with your version of WHMCS. However, according to your feedback shared with the WHMCS community, all encountered issues have already been successfully disposed of with the help of our team.

Che Guevara @che2881
Not support Plesk.
Joanna Byjoś @JoannaModulesGarden
Plesk integration has already been included in our official development schedule, and as such can be expected in the next module's updates.
Owner@ModulesGardenTaylor George @taylor3908
Absolutely essential for so many reasons. I use this actually not for clients, but for my developers. I give them access to create those wordpress dev urls via this panel. Really great option to have inside of WHMCS.
Charles Hoagland @charles8203
WordPress Manager for WHMCS is the tool we have been looking for. One of our favorites from MG. And we have quite of few of their products. Thanks Guy!
James Allsup @james2712
WP Manager is excellent, we encourage our users to interact from our site instead of logging directly into cpanel and this really fits the bill. We have several products from Modules Garden and all are great - most also compliment each other in some ways too. Although WP is becoming more embedded with cpanel/whm and is available through the standard typical script installers - nothing offers a standard this high.
Rav G @ravvv
Very bad support,
Code encrypted and hooks not responding,
Not recommended at all.
Joanna Byjoś @JoannaModulesGarden
The module's code is encrypted because you have yourself purchased the license of WordPress Manager For WHMCS, and not its open source version. If you would like to gain access to the complete source code, you are always welcome to request the upgrade, whereby your license is switched into the lifetime-valid open source version of a module.
Owner@ModulesGardenNicholas Sansom @My-Global-Solutions-Group
The WordPress Manager for WHMCS, created and developed by the #1 Modules company "ModulesGarden" is just fantastic, it has been really efficient and also provided our support team with new ways to provide quick turn around support to our customers.
This module is highly recommended and I can't wait to see what other features are added in future versions.
