Description

This plugin provides situational awareness of the Pantheon plaform from within your WordPress dashboard. It’s helpful to be reminded what environment you’re in, as well as providing quick links to get back to Pantheon’s dashboard, or to interface with your WordPress installation via the command line.

Pantheon HUD is in early stages of development. We want your feedback! Create a Github issue with questions, feature requests, or bug reports.

Installation

Installation is vanilla. The plugin should have no ill effect when the site is running locally or if you move your site off the Pantheon platform. It knows how to nerf itself in other environments.

By default, the Pantheon HUD appears for logged-in users with the manage_options capability. You can instead restrict it to specific users with the pantheon_hud_current_user_can_view filter:

add_filter( 'pantheon_hud_current_user_can_view', function(){
    $current_user = wp_get_current_user();
    if ( $current_user && in_array( $current_user->user_login, array( 'myuserlogin' ) ) ) {
        return true;
    }
    return false;
});
