If you make the effort to test your website’s changes in a staging environment, it makes sense to want an easy way to sync them with your production environment.
We’re excited to share that we have introduced additional options built-in syncing tool that lets you further fine-tune what you sync and where. You can read more about how to use this enhanced method here.
These new options include:
- Theme Files and Directories Sync: Synchronize theme-related files and folders.
- Plugin Files and Directories Sync: Synchronize plugin-related files and folders.
- Media Uploads Directory Sync: This synchronizes the media uploads directory. (Please note that syncing the entire database is necessary for files to display correctly in the Media Library.)
- WP-Content Files and Directories Sync: Synchronize files and directories within the wp-content folder, excluding themes, plugins, or uploads.
- Web Root Files and Directories Sync: Synchronize files and directories located in the root directory, excluding the wp-content folder.
- Database Sync: This process will entirely overwrite the database on the destination site.
If you want to get even more technical, you can choose the Environment Type for your destination site, selecting from local, development, staging, production, or default.
These options are also available for use through our API – you can read documentation about this here.
We hope you find this helpful for your workflows!
