How to Use Collaborator Access in BionicWP
Overview
Collaborator access allows you to grant limited, secure access to a specific WordPress site inside your BionicWP dashboard — without sharing your full account credentials. This is perfect for developers, team members, or contractors who need to work on a specific site without managing billing or other sites.
How It Works
You can invite collaborators to any individual site in your account. Once added, they’ll receive an email invitation to create their own login. From there, they can manage that site just like you — but only the one(s) you’ve shared.
Collaborators can:
Access the BionicWP dashboard for assigned sites
Manage backups, staging, plugin updates, and other tools
Launch into WordPress admin via 1-click login
They cannot:
See or manage your billing details
Access other sites in your account
Add or remove other collaborators
Step-by-Step Instructions
To Add a Collaborator:
Go to your BionicWP Dashboard
Click into the site you want to share access to
In the sidebar, select Collaborator Access
Click Add Collaborator
Enter the person’s name and email address
Click Send Invite
The collaborator will receive an email with login instructions
To Accept the Invitation (Collaborator Instructions):
Log into your BionicWP account (or create one if prompted)
Go to Collaborator > Supervisor tab
Accept the pending invitation
Once accepted, navigate to Sites > Shared Sites to access the shared project
To Remove a Collaborator:
Go to the Collaborator Access tab for the site
Click the trash icon next to the user’s name
Confirm removal
Pro Tip: Use collaborator access instead of sharing your login — it’s more secure and gives you full control over who sees what. Perfect for handing off dev work or site maintenance to a freelancer or internal team member.
