Hi, I’m Niko Vittaniemi, a WordPress and WooCommerce consultant, trainer, and all-around WordPress nerd from Finland.
I run WP-opas, where I create practical WordPress and WooCommerce guides, and I’m the founder of WPWoofi, a Finnish WordPress community for professionals, business owners, and beginners.
In my day-to-day work at Innovitale, I build, optimize, troubleshoot, and maintain WordPress and WooCommerce sites, with a particular focus on e-commerce and solving real-world problems for online merchants.
Session
I Built a Custom WooCommerce Dashboard for My Clients – Here’s Why
Lightning Talk
11:55 – 12:10
Complexity: Medium
Intended Audience: WordPress and WooCommerce developers, freelancers, agencies, and anyone who builds or maintains WooCommerce stores for clients.
WooCommerce gives store owners a lot of tools and data – but not always in the easiest places to find them.
In this lightning talk, I’ll show a custom WooCommerce dashboard I built for my maintenance clients and explain why I decided to build it. The goal was simple: give store owners one clear place for the things they actually need, from store management and sales data to maintenance information and getting support.
I’ll share what ended up being useful, what I learned while building it, and how small improvements to the WordPress admin experience can make everyday life easier for both clients and the people maintaining their sites.
