Click Save Changes at the bottom of the page to apply your settings.

Available Tools options include:

Site Password Protection,
Maintenance Mode,
Duplicate Posts/Pages,
Duplicate Menus,
Insert Custom Code.

Site Password Protection

Secure your entire website behind a password wall.

This is ideal for staging sites, internal wikis, or sites under development. This feature restricts access for both public visitors and search engine crawlers.

Site Password: Set the master password required to view the site.
Whitelisted IPs: Enter specific IP addresses (one per line) to allow them to bypass the password prompt automatically.

Bypass URL Parameter: A powerful alternative to IP whitelisting. Set a "key=value" pair to create a secret access link.
- Setup: Enter a string like access=granted .
- Usage: Access your site via https://yourwebsite.com?access=granted .
- Pro Tip: To bypass the password and go straight to the login screen, use https://yourwebsite.com/wp-login.php?access=granted .

When accessing the login URL with the Bypass URL Parameter enabled, use the wp-login.php option.

Example: https://yourwebsite.com/wp-login.php?access=granted

Maintenance Mode

Inform visitors that your site is undergoing brief updates. This prevents users from seeing broken layouts during plugin updates or design tweaks.

Disabled: Your website is available as usual.
Simple Template: Customize a basic landing page with a Simple Heading, Simple Content message, and a Simple Background Image.
Custom Template: Select a pre-made template from OceanWP > My Library.
- Note: Requires the OceanWP theme and Ocean Extra plugin.

The Custom Template option is currently available only to OceanWP theme users.

Duplicate Posts/Pages

Duplicate Posts/Pages adds a "Duplicate" action link to your Post and Page rows in the WordPress admin area.

Duplicate Menus

Duplicate Menus option enables a dedicated menu cloner.

Once enabled, go to Appearance > Duplicate Menu (refresh the page if you're not seeing the new option). Select your source menu, click Duplicate, and find the new copy under Appearance > Menus.

Insert Custom Code

Easily inject scripts (like Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or custom CSS/JS) into specific areas of your site's HTML without editing theme files.

Available options include:

Header Code: insert code into the website's <head> HTML element. Common use cases: Meta tags, Analytics, CSS.
Body Code: insert code right after the website's <body> HTML element, aka website's <body> open tag. Common use cases: Tracking pixels, GTM snippets.
Footer Code*: insert code right before the website's </body> HTML element, aka website's </body> closing tag. Common use cases: Heavy Javascript, Chat widgets.

Security Warning: Code entered here is not sanitized or escaped to ensure it functions correctly. Only paste code from trusted, verified sources.

*this name is not a mistake. The </body> HTML element (body closing tag) is the last part of the page before the document ends, therefore it's often referred to as the footer when it comes to code insertion/injection.
