Introducing: Easier Migrations and a Domain Setup Wizard

We’ve recently released some improvements to our migration process, making it easier than ever to move your WordPress sites to Pressable!

When you’re ready to move an existing site over to your Pressable account, you’ll still start by adding a site inside your MyPressable Control Panel. However, you can choose the “Create as a migration placeholder” option when setting up the installation.

This will kick off a smart workflow that automatically creates tailored migration instructions for your specific site.

You can read more about the migration steps that follow here.

Of course, the intelligent updates don’t stop there… We’ve heard you share that DNS updates can be tricky, especially when you’re helping on a client-owned domain.

This is why we’ve introduced our new Domain Setup Wizard, which allows you to connect your domain to your Pressable site by automatically detecting the DNS provider and adding the records needed. Simply enter your domain name and the wizard will take care of the rest!

With this workflow, you can make easy work of updating domains where you may not have registrar access. Simply select the “forward login to someone else” option and they can securely log in on their end without needing to do anything else — the wizard will take care of the rest!

More information on the Domain Setup Wizard can be found here.

As always, our team is also available to assist with migrations if you’d rather not handle things yourself. Simply open a new chat and let us know.

Press on!
