WP Lifeline is a break-glass recovery plugin for WordPress sites that need a dependable path back into maintenance mode when the normal dashboard is failing.

After activation, WP Lifeline creates a private recovery URL and installs a must-use recovery loader. If a theme conflict, plugin fatal, or broken update locks you out of wp-admin, that recovery URL still opens a protected dashboard with emergency controls.

Features include:

  • Private recovery dashboard with token-based authentication and lockout protection
  • Disable all plugins while keeping WP Lifeline active
  • Re-enable plugins one by one for conflict isolation
  • Switch to a default WordPress theme
  • Reset administrator passwords or create a temporary emergency administrator
  • One-click Safe Mode for a cleaner wp-admin recovery session
  • Recovery readiness score with setup checklist
  • Recovery package export with system info, snapshot diff, logs, and a support-ready runbook
  • Access logging, cleanup routines, and inline admin guidance
