It\u2019s built upon the WordPress Core, the software you can download from <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/download\/\" rel=\"noopener\">WordPress.org<\/a>, that can be customized and enhanced by means of <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/wordpress-plugin-administration\/\" rel=\"noopener\">different plugins and themes<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The looks of a website is determined by its theme, and WordPress requires users to choose a theme for each site, or they can go with the default theme. Luckily a huge ecosystem of <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/go\/elegant\">WordPress Themes<\/a> is available on both free and premium sites, so everyone can find the theme that the best suits to their needs. It\u2019s less known though that <strong>it\u2019s also possible to install a custom theme for the admin area<\/strong> of a WordPress site.<\/p>\n<p class=\"note\"><strong>Read more: <\/strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/wordpress-admin-color-scheme\/\" rel=\"noopener\">How to customize the WordPress Admin color scheme<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Why Use An Admin Theme<\/h2>\n<p>An admin theme can <strong>give a unique look and feel to a site<\/strong>, which is not only important aesthetically but also from the aspect of user-friendliness, as an admin theme can add a more intuitive user interface to the dashboard.<\/p>\n<p>This is especially valuable for sites that have <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/wordpress-multi-author-plugins\/\" rel=\"noopener\">many authors and contributors<\/a> who all use the admin area. If you make a WordPress site for a client you may also want to <strong>simplify the dashboard<\/strong> to make it easier to use.<\/p>\n<h2>How Admin Themes Work<\/h2>\n<p>Admin themes cannot be found in the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/themes\/\" rel=\"noopener\">WordPress Theme Directory<\/a> among the regular front-end themes, as they are not themes but <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/\" rel=\"noopener\">plugins<\/a>, and therefore need to be installed.<\/p>\n<p>Because of that, if you are not careful enough, <strong>you might activate more than one admin theme at the same time<\/strong> \u2013 this happened to me when I tested the themes for this post. So if your dashboard looks awkward, it\u2019s worth to check if you haven\u2019t accidentally activated two admin theme plugins at once.<\/p>\n<p>Before you install an admin theme, you need to set the Admin Color Scheme to default under the <strong>Users &gt; Your Profile<\/strong> admin menu.<\/p>\n<p>Each admin theme has its own colour scheme that is usually built upon the default WP colour scheme. That\u2019s why <strong>it can happen that an admin theme doesn\u2019t look good with another predefined Admin Colour Scheme<\/strong> (\u201cLight\u201d, \u201cBlue\u201d, \u201cCoffee\u201d, etc.) activated (e.g. white letters on white background). You can install admin themes as regular plugins.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/wordpress-admin-themes\/wp-colour-schemes.jpg\" alt=\"WP Admin Colour Schemes\" width=\"700\" height=\"369\"><\/figure>\n<h2>1. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/material-admin-theme\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Material Admin Theme<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>If you are a fan of Google\u2019s new <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/flat-20\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Material Design<\/a>, the <strong>Material Admin Theme<\/strong> is an excellent choice for you. It looks modern and fresh, and provides a <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/high-contrast-color-design\/\" rel=\"noopener\">better colour contrast<\/a> than the original WordPress dashboard, so it offers greater accessiblity and a more friendly user experience.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/wordpress-admin-themes\/material-admin-theme.jpg\" alt=\"Material Admin Theme\" width=\"700\" height=\"373\"><\/figure>\n<h2>2. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/fancy-admin-ui\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Fancy Admin UI<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>The <strong>Fancy Admin<\/strong> theme simplifies the user interface of the WordPress dashboard by making it <strong>cleaner and easier on the eye<\/strong>. It doesn\u2019t only changes the design of the admin panel but also the Admin Bar on the top. Its default colours are blue and grey, but you can customize the colour scheme at the bottom of the <strong>Settings &gt; General<\/strong> admin page.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/wordpress-admin-themes\/fancy-admin-ui.jpg\" alt=\"Fancy Admin UI\" width=\"700\" height=\"401\"><\/figure>\n<h2>3. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/slate-admin-theme\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Slate Admin Theme<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>The main goal of the <strong>Slate Admin Theme<\/strong> is to improve the content writing experience on a WordPress site, so if you run a multi-author blog, it can be a great idea to give this beautiful admin theme a try. It also makes the Admin Bar simpler, and <strong>visibly separates it from the vertical admin menu<\/strong> on the left-hand side.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/wordpress-admin-themes\/slate.jpg\" alt=\"Slate Admin Theme\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\"><\/figure>\n<h2>4. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/tamed-admin-theme\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Tamed Admin Theme<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>The <strong>Tamed Admin Theme<\/strong> intends to tame the WordPress backend by decreasing the number of visual clutters, raising the contrast, and using a calm and clean colour scheme. This way the theme provides a <strong>less chaotic and stressful user interface<\/strong>. As Tamed is responsive, it can also be used on mobile.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/wordpress-admin-themes\/tamed.jpg\" alt=\"Tamed Admin Theme\" width=\"700\" height=\"390\"><\/figure>\n<h2>5. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/shift-short-wp-admin-theme\/\" rel=\"noopener\">SHIFT Short WP Admin Theme<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>The <strong>SHIFT Short WP Admin Theme <\/strong>completely removes the Admin Bar from the top of the dashboard, and moves the Profile-related \u201cHowdy\u201d menu to the left-hand side. This solution is smart, because if you click on the little house icon left to the profile picture, you can jump to the front-end at once where the Admin Bar appears again.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/wordpress-admin-themes\/shift-short.jpg\" alt=\"Shift Short WP Admin Theme\" width=\"700\" height=\"396\"><\/figure>\n<p>As the SHIFT Short admin theme <strong>makes the dashboard menu more straightforward<\/strong>, it can be an ideal choice on a WordPress site that\u2019s managed by a client.<\/p>\n<h2>6. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/reimagined-admin\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Reimagined Admin Theme<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>If you like bright colours and extravagant design, you\u2019ll love the <strong>Reimagined Admin Theme<\/strong>. It has its own custom options under the <strong>Appearance &gt; Reimagined<\/strong> menu where you can set the icons and the background of the admin area, change the logo and the background of the login page.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/wordpress-admin-themes\/reimagined.jpg\" alt=\"Reimagined Admin Theme\" width=\"700\" height=\"385\"><\/figure>\n<p>On top of that you can also add a custom logo to the Admin Bar, remove the default admin bar links linking to WordPress.org, and change or hide the copyright text and the version number in the admin footer. So if you need a white-labelled trendy dashboard, it\u2019s definitely worth to consider the <strong>Reimagined<\/strong> admin theme.<\/p>\n<h2>7. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/blue-admin\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Blue Admin<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>The <strong>Blue Admin<\/strong> dashboard theme uses a lovely white and blue colour scheme, and a nice drop-down effect in the Admin Bar. It also allows you to <strong>add custom navigation menus<\/strong> to the Admin Bar. Blue Admin smartly makes use of flat design, and offers a more clear, relaxed, and intuitive admin interface.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/wordpress-admin-themes\/blue-admin.jpg\" alt=\"Blue Admin\" width=\"700\" height=\"382\"><\/figure>\n<h2>8. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/ot-admin-theme\/\" rel=\"noopener\">OT Admin Theme<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>The <strong>OT Admin Theme<\/strong> allows you to change the colours of the WordPress dashboard on your own. It adds a new menu item to your dashboard where you can customize the colour of the admin interface, the admin menu text in default and active states, and the background colour of the active menu item.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/wordpress-admin-themes\/ot-admin.jpg\" alt=\"OT Admin Theme\" width=\"700\" height=\"389\"><\/figure>\n<p>The OT Admin Theme doesn\u2019t add a different design to the dashboard, it only makes it easy to <strong>change the 8 predefined admin colour schemes<\/strong> to whatever you want.<\/p>\n<h2>9. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/live-admin-customzier\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Live Admin Customizer<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Live Admin Customizer<\/strong> is a powerful tool that enables you to create a fully customized admin panel. You can create your own admin themes with the help of this handy plugin, and you can save and edit them without writing a single line of code.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/wordpress-admin-themes\/live-admin.jpg\" alt=\"Live Admin Customizer\" width=\"700\" height=\"398\"><\/figure>\n<p>You can <strong>change the colour of basically everything on the dashboard<\/strong>, such as action buttons, secondary buttons, links, menu icons, avatar frames, and many others.<\/p>\n<h2>10. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/fix-admin-contrast\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Fix Admin Contrast<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>The <strong>Fix Admin Contrast<\/strong> plugin doesn\u2019t change too much about the admin area, it \u201conly\u201d improves the visibility of form fields (input fields, checkboxes, text areas) and tables by <strong>properly raising the contrast where it\u2019s necessary<\/strong>. You can take a look at the difference on the two screenshots below, the first one was taken with the plugin activated, and the second one without it.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/wordpress-admin-themes\/fix-admin-contrast-with.jpg\" alt=\"Fix Admin Contrast plugin activated\" width=\"700\" height=\"570\"><\/figure>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/wordpress-admin-themes\/fix-admin-contrast-without.jpg\" alt=\"Fix Admin Contrast plugin deactivated\" width=\"700\" height=\"571\"><\/figure>\n<p>If you are okay with the look of the WordPress admin area, but the lack of contrast and low visibility frustrates you, it may be worth to check out the Fix Admin Contrast plugin on your site.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WordPress has become the most popular content management system mainly because of its high customizability.
