Project Manager Pro

Manage project work from your WordPress site

Project Manager Pro extends the Project Manager add-on with frontend project access, visual planning, time tracking, and billing tools. Selected users can work with projects and tasks on the website without backend access. Administrators can view all projects; other users see projects and tasks assigned to them according to their roles and permissions.

Teams can assign work, set deadlines, follow progress, and coordinate around milestones. These processes can support internal or distributed teams, client portals, and service projects. Project reports, task reports, and visitor activity reports let administrators review project progress and team activity.

Choose a board or timeline view

Customizable Kanban boards show tasks by status. Their default columns are Open, In Progress, Done, and Overdue. Create unlimited boards, sort tasks by status, move them between columns with drag and drop, and add tasks while working on a board. This gives teams a direct view of current assignments and recurring work.

For scheduled work, the interactive Gantt chart shows tasks along a project timeline. Adjust task start and end dates, map dependencies, and view subtasks in relation to the wider project. The timeline can help remote teams coordinate milestone tracking and longer delivery schedules.

Track task time and prepare invoices

Users can start, stop, or pause a timer on a task. Recorded time can be reviewed as total time spent per project, giving hourly teams and service work a record of project effort for billing, productivity tracking, or performance monitoring.

Project Manager Pro can generate invoices from tracked time and project details. Invoices can then be marked as paid, connecting task activity with billing administration.

Set up projects and participants

Install Project Manager Pro as a WordPress add-on, then configure projects, users, roles, and permissions for the intended workflow. Create or organize projects, assign tasks, and pick which participants need frontend access. To plan visually, make Kanban boards and add the relevant tasks. For scheduled work, enter dates and dependencies in the Gantt chart.

If billing is part of the workflow, enable task timing, record project hours, and use the resulting project details to generate invoices. Review project, task, and user activity reports to see progress and team activity.
