In the event that our team needs hands-on access to your WordPress site for troubleshooting, testing, or collaboration here’s how to securely grant temporary access and revoke it.

Summary / TL;DR

Sharing site access with Shifter support is based on the teams feature available for all tiers excluding free and free trials.

1. Create a new team for this purpose or use an existing team

2. Add your site to that team

3. Invite our support account hello@getshifter.io to join the team with the highest member role.

Sharing access

Create a new team

Some users choose to create a unique team for this purpose since sites can be a part of more than one team. For example, creating a team called Shifter Support can be helpful to quickly identify what accounts you’ve share access with.

If your site is not a part of any team yet this may be the preferred option.

Using an existing team

Using an existing team is fine as well. Using an existing team may be helpful for our support team if we need to collaborate with multiple members based on their availability such as location and preferred language.
