問題與答案:
- Simple LaunchPad 在 WordPress 管理員介面中以什麼方式出現？
Simple LaunchPad以第一個選單項目的形式出現，提供對於20個精心組織的按鈕的即時存取。
- 為什麼這個外掛存在？
這個外掛的存在是因為管理多個具有不同外掛的 WordPress 安裝的使用者可能會遇到的問題，即外掛開發人員隨機決定其選單項目的出現位置，導致核心 WordPress 選單項目如主題、外掛和設定在側欄上上下移動。透過 Simple LaunchPad，這些最常使用的管理頁面可以預測性地出現在管理員選單的頂部位置，避免用戶不斷滾動尋找相同的常用選項。
- 誰最能受益於 Simple LaunchPad？
Simple LaunchPad 最適合網站管理員想要更快導覽、代理機構管理多個客戶網站、需要快速存取工具的開發人員、專注於特定管理區域的內容團隊，以及依賴螢幕閱讀器和可預期導覽的視障用戶。
原文外掛簡介
Simple LaunchPad appears as the first menu item in your WordPress admin, providing instant access to 20 carefully organized buttons across four categories: Content Management, Appearance, Administration, and WooCommerce.
Why This Plugin Exists
If you manage multiple WordPress installations with different plugins (like I do), you know the frustration: plugin developers arbitrarily decide where their menu entries appear, constantly pushing core WordPress menu items like Themes, Plugins, and Settings up and down the sidebar. One site has “Plugins” at position 5, another at position 12, and yet another at position 8. You’re forced to scroll endlessly, hunting for the same common entries you use every day.
I got tired of complaining about it, so I did something about it.
Simple LaunchPad puts all your most-used admin pages in ONE predictable location at the top of your admin menu. No more scrolling. No more hunting. Just click and go. This is my contribution to the WordPress community—a solution to a problem we’ve all experienced but rarely talk about.
Perfect for:
* Site administrators who want faster navigation
* Agencies managing multiple client sites
* Developers who need quick access to tools
* Content teams focusing on specific admin areas
* Users with visual disabilities who rely on screen readers and predictable navigation
Accessibility Features
Simple LaunchPad is fully WCAG 2.1 AA compliant and specifically designed to help users with visual disabilities navigate WordPress more efficiently.
Why This Matters for Accessibility:
When you manage multiple WordPress sites with different plugins, the admin menu becomes unpredictable. One site has “Posts” at position 3, another at position 7. Plugin developers arbitrarily inject their menu items anywhere, constantly shifting core WordPress items up and down. For sighted users, this is frustrating. For screen reader users, this is a nightmare.
Every time a screen reader user logs into a different site, they must:
– Navigate through the entire menu structure to find familiar items
– Re-learn where “Posts”, “Pages”, “Plugins”, and “Settings” are located
– Tab through dozens of unfamiliar plugin menu items just to reach core WordPress functions
Simple LaunchPad solves this by providing ONE predictable location at the top of the admin menu where all essential WordPress areas are always accessible.
Accessibility Compliance Features:
✓ Keyboard Navigation: Full keyboard support with visible focus states
✓ Global Keyboard Shortcut: Press Alt+Shift+L (Windows/Linux) or Control+Option+L (Mac) to instantly open LaunchPad from anywhere in WordPress admin
✓ Screen Reader Support: Proper ARIA labels and semantic HTML structure
✓ Skip Links: “Skip to admin shortcuts” link for faster navigation
✓ Descriptive Labels: Each button includes clear, descriptive aria-labels (e.g., “Go to Posts”, “Go to Settings”)
✓ Icon Accessibility: All icons are properly marked as decorative (aria-hidden="true")
✓ Semantic HTML: Proper use of navigation landmarks and heading structure
✓ Large Click Targets: 64px icons with generous padding meet WCAG touch target guidelines
✓ Focus Management: Clear visual focus indicators with high contrast
✓ Consistent Location: Always appears as the first menu item for predictable navigation
Real-World Impact:
Instead of tabbing through 20+ menu items that change position on every site, screen reader users can:
1. Log in to WordPress
2. Tab once to “LaunchPad” (always first in the menu)
3. Access any of 15 core WordPress areas with predictable, consistent labels
This reduces cognitive load, speeds up navigation, and makes WordPress administration accessible to everyone—not just sighted users who can visually scan the menu.
