**WPSigner for MainWP** is an official addon that brings WPSigner contract workflows into the [MainWP Dashboard](https://mainwp.com/). Agencies manage e-signature documents on the **same WordPress site** that runs MainWP and WPSigner — associated with MainWP Clients and Sites — without installing WPSigner on child sites.

> **note**
Current addon version documented here: **1.5.8**. Requires **MainWP Dashboard** and **WPSigner** active on the Dashboard site.

## What This Addon Does

| Capability | Description |
|------------|-------------|
| **Agency-owned contracts** | Documents live in WPSigner on the Dashboard; child sites are never signing hosts |
| **Client & Site linking** | Each contract can be associated with a MainWP Client, Site, or both |
| **Create from templates** | Multi-signer create with variable prefill from Client/Site data |
| **Send & remind** | Trigger WPSigner emails from MainWP (single or bulk) |
| **Quick create** | One-click create & send from Client/Site cards when a default template is set |
| **Access modal** | View PDF and (when allowed) signing links without leaving MainWP |
| **History** | Audit who created, sent, reminded, or linked from the Dashboard |
| **Alerts & columns** | Pending-signature banners and Manage Sites / Clients columns |

## Architecture

          ▼              │ (no WPSigner on children)
   Child Site A    Child Site B
```

**Important:** The addon does **not** push WPSigner to child sites. Contracts, PDFs, signers, OTP/KYC, and email all run on the Dashboard.

Link metadata is stored in `{prefix}wps_mainwp_links`. Dashboard actions are logged in `{prefix}wps_mainwp_activity`.

## Quick Start (5 Minutes)

1. On your **MainWP Dashboard** site, install and activate **MainWP Dashboard**, **WPSigner**, and **WPSigner for MainWP**.
2. Enable the extension under **MainWP → Extensions**.
3. Open **MainWP → Extensions → WPSigner**.
4. Go to **Settings**: choose a **Default template** and optionally set a **Default agency signer**.
5. Open **Create**, pick a Client/Site, confirm Signer rows, and send.

For OTP or KYC on individual contracts, set WPSigner **Security & Compliance** policies to **Choose per document** first — see [Creating Contracts → Identity checks](/addons/mainwp-creating-contracts/#identity-checks-otp--kyc).

## Who Should Use This

- Agencies running **MainWP** that already (or will) host **WPSigner** on the Dashboard
- Teams that sign MSAs, SOWs, NDAs, or maintenance agreements tied to Clients/Sites
- Operators who want create/send/remind without switching to the full WPSigner Documents UI for every action
