StickyAdmin started as a simple project about two years ago and recently I came to the conclusion that it’d be impossible for only one individual to get it done the right way, so hereby I request everyone’s help to get involved in developing a better yet compatbile interface for the admin side of WordPress.

- Is StickyAdmin ready for production?
-
Not yet.
- What is failsafe mode?
-
Some installs may interfere with Sticky (something we don’t want) and this way the plugin triggers it’s failsafe mode which still gets the interface replaced no matter if there are JS or server errors in the stack. Logs can help us develpers figure what is conflicting.
