LifePress

Deskripsi

LifePress is a calendar-based personal journal designed to help you consciously record, reflect, and grow through your life events.

Instead of scattered notes or forgotten logs, LifePress gives you a visual timeline of your life β€” allowing you to look back, recognize patterns, track progress, and move forward with clarity.

Each logged-in user gets their own private journal calendar, with unlimited entries, color-coded categories, rich descriptions, images, and now custom data metrics and a lunisolar (moon phase) calendar view.

You are the creator of your life experiences. LifePress helps you record them with intention.

Create unlimited custom fields and attach them to journal entries to track meaningful data alongside your notes.

Supported metric types include:

  • Text fields
  • Checkable (yes/no) fields
  • Multiple selectable values

Perfect for tracking things like:

  • Mood, energy, or focus
  • Habits and consistency
  • Health, fitness, or learning progress
  • Any personal or professional metric that matters to you

Your journal becomes a living dataset of your life.

πŸŒ™ Lunisolar Calendar – Moon View (New in 2.2)

Switch from the standard calendar to a moon-phase (lunisolar) view and align your journaling with natural rhythms.

Center your life awareness around:

  • New moons
  • Full moons
  • Waxing and waning cycles

This view is ideal for those who prefer to plan, reflect, and reset in harmony with nature’s cycles rather than purely linear time.

πŸ† 21 days to make a change in your life

Research suggests it takes around 21 days of consistent effort to form a habit.

LifePress provides a powerful way to:

  • Record daily practice attempts
  • Visually track streaks and breaks
  • Reflect on when you started, paused, or recommitted

Whether you’re building a habit, learning a skill, or healing through consistency, LifePress makes progress visible and honest.

πŸ’ͺ Own your personal Journal Data

Your data stays fully under your control.

  • All entries are stored in your own WordPress database
  • Journals are private by default
  • Each user only sees their own LifePress calendar
  • No external services, no data harvesting

Your life data belongs to you.

🌐 Business Applications

LifePress is also ideal for organizations and professionals who want to empower people through self-tracking:

  • Life coaches
  • Fitness instructors
  • Therapists
  • Educators
  • Wellness communities

Users record daily entries privately, while admins can support and guide progress β€” making LifePress a powerful accountability and growth tool.

πŸš€ Future Plans!

LifePress is actively evolving, as we too use it daily for our personal journalling. Next we plan to add: List View and Lifespan/ long-term timeline view.

Tanya Jawab

Some months do not load entries, what could I do?

In version 2.0.2 we added option in LifePress setting “Month data loading method” switch this to “Load fresh data at all times”. This will force the calendar to load a fresh copy of data from database everytime a month is switched, instead of using previously loaded month data.

Can users see other’s data?

No, only the user with administrator permission can see all the entries from backend. Event entry records are saved for each user.

Is there a limit to how many entries I can submit?

No, there is no limit to how many entries you can submit. It is unlimited.

Can I set the default view style?

Yes, you can set default view style from month view to week view from Settings > LifePress Settings > Default Dashboard View

Can I display the dashboard on any page?

Not at this moment. Right now it is only visible on the lifepress page created automatically.

Can I show other post types in the lifePress dashboard?

No, only the lifepress created custom post types with slug lp_entry can be shown in the dashboard.

This is a fantastic journaling, diary, solution and easy to install and use whether it be for coordinating a business or using personally it works really well a must have for all WordPress communities or personal sites that need to journal or a diary. Very useful for developers who wish to communicate and share nots and tags easily categorize things. Well done to th developer you have given something here which I feel WordPress should have as default.

I just installed the plugin – it looks great. One small problem: in the “Month view”, the day of the week is wrong. It displays the previous day of the week – it’s off by one. The “Week view” is correct. This should be an easy code fix – can you correct this error and issue an update?
