Let me tell you how the plugin and it’s pages can be accessed. Any user can login from the front end. When an admin logins, he/she is redirected on the wordpress back-end dashboard. From there admin can access wpschoolpress dashboard. Like wise when any other user tries logging in, the will be redirected to their respective dashboards(not wordpress backend) with limited rights given.
Note: You can not access any page from the front end of your website, you can only log in from the front end.
Please use below links for login.
domainname/wp-admin/admin.php?page=sch-dashboard – this link will take you to the login page and once you login, you will be redirected to the school dashboard
domainname/wp-admin/ – this link will take you to the login page and once you login, you will be redirected to the wordpress dashboard.

· Create Daisy’s(student) profile and insert all her details as well as James (parent) details along with user name, email address and password
· Now create John’s(student) profile and in that before inserting parent details, you just need to insert email address and the rest of the details which you had inserted while creating daisy’s profile will be automatically loaded in John’s profile
· This is how 3 users are created.
· Now when you access James’ dashboard, you will be able to see 2 students in the students listing and all the information related to both his kids too like classes, teachers, exams, etc.
Note: Here you have created same parent for two students, now whenever you edit parent’s information from any of the student’s profile, the other profile’s parent information will be automatically updated.

There are many educational institutes or activity coaching institutes which need a management system. Their operationals are quite matching with WPSchoolPress but few functions need to be added or removed.
Case Study: A music school needs a student management system to manage students, classes, schedule and fees. They have a requirement of students registering online but with multi-class selection. Also they need a batch system for same classes along with a feature to upload documents. They do not need modules like Parents and Transportation. So these modules have to be removed. At last they want the plugin theme colours to be the colours of their website.
