Getting Started
How SiteNivo is organized in wp-admin, what to enable first, and how content modeling connects to site tools.
Who should use SiteNivo
Site builders & agencies who want CPT + fields + utilities without stacking ten plugins. Developers who need sn_get_field() and optional PHP export so types can live in a theme later.
Admin menu layout
After activation, open the top-level SiteNivo menu. The WordPress flyout only shows Dashboard; every other module is in the SiteNivo sidebar (and still works via direct URL).
| Area | Modules |
|---|---|
| Build | Post Types, Taxonomies, Field Groups, Options Pages, Post Columns, Code Generator |
| Tools | URL Replace, Permalink Manager, Redirections, SMTP, Header & Footer, Visitor Tracking, Social Buttons |
| Secure | Security, Disable Comments |
| Ops | Rollback, Maintenance Mode, Coming Soon, WP Reset, Import / Export, Settings |
Recommended first hour
Install & activate
Follow Installation. Confirm the SiteNivo menu appears.
Create one CPT + field group
Walk through First Steps so you see values on the edit screen.
Enable only the tools you need
SMTP if mail fails, Security on public sites, Social Buttons if you want a floating contact bar. Leave unused modules Off.
Read values in the theme (optional)
Use Template Functions when building templates.
Performance tip
SiteNivo modules are modular. Toggles that are Off stay out of your way — enable Visitor Tracking, Social Buttons, or Maintenance only when you need them.
