  1. WP STAGING 4.20.0Latest

    • New: Add a setting to switch a staging site to a live site. (Pro)
    • New: Add custom search and replace rules to the push setup modal, applied after the automatic URL rewrite. (Pro)
    • New: Record when a staging site last copied the live shop orders, the baseline for pushing a shop without losing them. (Pro)
    • UX: Redesign the backup restore confirmation modal.
    • Security: This release includes security hardening. Updating is strongly recommended.
    • Fix: A scheduled backup no longer stays queued for hours when the cron run that tries to restart it has no memory or time left to take it.
    • Fix: Copy every row of tables with gaps in their IDs when creating, updating, resetting or pushing a staging site with the Next-Gen engine.
    • Fix: Keep staging site creation, push and backups fast on large tables with a composite primary key, and stop locking them while they are backed up.
    • Fix: Keep the search and replace of staging, push and backup restore jobs from stalling or running out of memory.
    • Fix: Retry a background backup step once when its worker dies, and tell the owner when the retry dies too, so a backup never finishes without the file it was on.
    • Fix: A background backup no longer re-adds the same file again and again in one request once its time to add files has run out.
    • Fix: Show an error instead of hanging when the staging process gets a server response it cannot act on.
    • Fix: When neither the WordPress root nor wp-content is writable, say how to fix it instead of asking Free and unlicensed Pro users for a custom path they cannot set, and show that error on the Classic engine instead of a stalled progress screen.
    • Fix: Preserve existing plugins, themes, mu-plugins, and other files by default during subsite restore. (Pro)
    • Fix: Retry a Dropbox backup upload whose last step failed, instead of reporting it as uploaded. (Pro)
    • Plus 27 more fixes.
