We have expanded the central Bulk Operations suite to include two new automated design management utilities: Install Themes and Remove Themes. These additions allow agency administrators and portfolio managers to batch-deploy active themes and purge unused theme files across multi-site fleets.
Updates & Navigation
- Install Themes Command: Added an operation to fetch, install, and activate the latest version of a WordPress.org directory theme using its directory folder slug (e.g., astra). Applies the theme as the primary active design across selected sites.
- Remove Themes Command: Added an operation to permanently delete specified theme files across multiple sites using folder slugs (comma or space-delimited).
- Execution Safeguards: Automatically prevents the deletion of a site’s currently active theme and bypasses inactive or offline site environments.
- Asynchronous Background Processing: Dispatches installation and removal tasks asynchronously across target environments, logging initial job requests and skip states per row in the Bulk Operations history view.
How to get started
Log into MyPressable, navigate to the Tools > Bulk Operations panel, select your intended theme utility, enter the theme slug(s), select your target site list, and run the batch process.
