<p>Have you had to make a working project publicly accessible for your client, yet still have to keep<br />
the site “private” to the general public?</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://demo.zanematthew.com/client-access/" rel="nofollow ugc">Demo</a></strong></p>
<p>Normally you’ll quickly hack in an allowed IP list, server-side password (htpasswd), etc. Why hack this in? With Client Access you can take the professional approach. Use a WordPress plugin to allow specific IPs, or those with the universal password the ability to access the work in progress.</p>
<h4>Allow by IP</h4>
<p>Once enabled via the settings tab, you can add a list of IPs to the textarea. These IP addresses are the <em>only</em> IP addresses that are allowed. Additionally you can add a comment per IP to better detail each entry.</p>
<ul>
<li>Provide a list of IPs that are allowed</li>
<li>Comments are allowed for IPs</li>
<li>Display a content message</li>
<li>Display a footer message</li>
<li>All IPs are validated against the latest IP protocols</li>
</ul>
<p>Example:</p>
<pre><code>// Office at 123 Main street
192.168.0.1

// My localhost
127.0.0.1

// Ana
123.456.789
</code></pre>
<h4>Allow by Universal Password</h4>
<p>Once enabled via the settings tab, you can create a universal password that is <em>shared</em> with all users. No user name is required.</p>
<p>Anyone that visits the website while this is enabled will see the default message you’ve added. The site will only be accessible to users that you have shared out the password with.</p>
<ul>
<li>Provide a universal password</li>
<li>Set an expire time</li>
<li>Display a content message</li>
<li>Display a footer message</li>
</ul>
<h4>Allow By Role</h4>
<p>Allow by role of choice.</p>
<ul>
<li>Choose any registered role</li>
<li>Display a content message</li>
<li>Display a footer message</li>
</ul>

They simply point, click and comment – BugHerd grabs a screenshot, saves technical details and creates a task for your team to track.</p>
<p>Install the BugHerd plugin once, send your clients or stakeholders a link, and they can start pinning feedback right away, directly onto any element of your live or WordPress staging site – no code changes, no browser extension, no client login or account setup required.</p>
<p>Used by web agencies, in-house dev teams, QA testers, freelancers, and marketing teams worldwide, the BugHerd visual website feedback and bug tracking tool is trusted by over 350,000 people across 10,000+ companies in 172 countries.</p>
<p>Every piece of feedback automatically captures a screenshot plus full technical metadata: browser, OS, screen resolution, URL, CSS selector, and more.</p>
<p>Feedback flows straight into BugHerd’s built-in Kanban board, or syncs with your favorite developer or PM tools.</p>

<h3>BugHerd Key Features</h3>
<h4>Feedback pinned to the exact element on a web page</h4>
<p>Clients and teammates click any element on your live WordPress site or WP Admin to leave a comment. Feedback is anchored to that specific element so your developer knows exactly what needs fixing – no more vague emails. <a href="https://bugherd.com/feature/easy-website-annotations?utm_source=wordpress&utm_medium=plugin_directory&utm_campaign=Details_page" rel="nofollow ugc">Learn more</a></p>
<h4>Automatic screenshot & full technical data captured</h4>
<p>A screenshot along with browser type, OS, screen resolution, and the exact URL are all captured automatically with every piece of feedback. Your team gets everything they need to reproduce and fix an issue without a single follow-up question. <a href="https://bugherd.com/feature/actionable-bug-reports?utm_source=wordpress&utm_medium=plugin_directory&utm_campaign=Details_page" rel="nofollow ugc">Learn more</a></p>
