Feature Release: Unified Backup, Restore, and Data Transfer Permissions
We’ve combined the separate backup and restore collaborator options into a single checkbox. This update simplifies managing your team by putting all data-handling tools into one place, ensuring that related features, like the Data Transfer tool, work right away without needing to guess which checkboxes to turn on.
Updates & Navigation
One Single Checkbox: The old “Download Backups” and “Restore Site” options have been replaced by a single Manage Backups & Restores checkbox under your collaborator settings.
All-in-One Access: Checking this box automatically gives your collaborator full access to download backups, restore a site from a backup, and use the Data Transfer tool to move sites between environments.
Interruption-Free Access: To keep your team’s daily operations running smoothly, existing collaborators who already used either backup or restore tools have been moved to this new permission automatically.
How to Get Started
Log in to MyPressable, head to your Collaborators tab when editing a team profile, and use the new Manage Backups & Restores checkbox to adjust full data privileges for your team at once.
We’ve added a new, dedicated “Migrate Site” permission to the collaborator settings in MyPressable. This update decouples site migration rights from other account settings, allowing account owners and administrators to manage exactly who has permission to bring external sites onto the platform.
Updates & Navigation
Dedicated Permission Selection: A new Migrate Site checkbox is now available under the Content & Data permissions group when inviting or editing a collaborator.
Clean Action Menu Visibility: The “Migrate Here” option in the site dashboard will now automatically stay hidden from any collaborators who haven’t been given explicit migration permissions.
Interruption-Free Access: To keep your team’s daily operations running smoothly, existing collaborators who already used these migration tools have been granted this new permission automatically.
How to Get Started
Log in to MyPressable, head to your Collaborators tab, and use the permissions checklist to easily customize migration access for your team.
Feature Release: Public GitHub Integration API Endpoints
We have officially exposed all GitHub deployment configuration features to the public Pressable API. This addition transitions GitHub workflows from a user-interface-dependent model to a programmatic model, allowing developers and agencies to manage continuous integration and deployment routines natively through automated scripts.
Updates & Navigation
Endpoint Feature Parity: Introduced documented API endpoints covering the entire lifecycle of the GitHub integration, including token management, repository synchronization, branch queries, deployment triggering, and history retrieval.
OAuth Access Scopes: Added dedicated Read and Edit permission scopes to the API Applications panel, allowing administrative users to tightly restrict automated programmatic access based on security requirements.
Role Enforcement Mirroring: Connected the new API endpoints directly to existing site-level user roles, ensuring programmatic requests respect account permission hierarchies exactly like the dashboard interface.
Integration Eligibility Guard: Implemented validation logic to confirm site enrollment before processing API calls. Sites requiring account upgrades or setup adjustments will receive explicit messaging directing them to support for manual enrollment.
We’ve added a real-time progress indicator and a safety lock to the Data Transfer tool within MyPressable. Instead of relying on quick, temporary success messages that disappear, the dashboard now maintains a steady status view to give clear visibility into ongoing background site moves and prevent accidental duplicate transfers.
Updates & Navigation
Persistent Status Tracking: A new “In Progress” badge with a spinning icon stays visible on the Data Transfer card for as long as a background move is running.
Automatic Safeguard Locks: The button to launch a transfer automatically disables itself while a job is active, ensuring you can’t accidentally trigger overlapping data moves.
Status Notifications: Opening the tool during an active transfer displays a clear reminder that a move is already running and that a confirmation email will be sent when it finishes.
Smart Dashboard Resets: The page automatically detects when a background transfer wraps up and refreshes itself to immediately return the tool to its ready state.
How to Get Started
Head over to the Site Tools section of any site undergoing a data move. The Data Transfer card will show its real-time status and automatically unlock itself once the background process finishes.
We’ve introduced a self-serve control panel for PHP memory and worker allocations within MyPressable. This update gives eligible accounts instant management over server capacity, removing the need for manual assistance when scaling resource allocations up or down.
Note: This feature is not currently available on accounts with custom plans.
Updates & Navigation
Live Resource Wizard: A dedicated PHP Resources interface is now available under the Site Health sidebar, featuring drop-down selection tiers for PHP memory and an interactive scaling slider for worker counts.
Dynamic Cost Calculations: Integrated a live-updating cost summary and a memory-per-worker balance visualization that recalculates in real time as values are adjusted.
High-Volume Routing Checks: The wizard automatically detects requests exceeding baseline limits, seamlessly routing high-capacity worker requests to an assisted validation queue.
Lifecycle Integrity Warnings: Implemented contextual warning alerts across the site cloning, environment conversion, and ownership transfer modals to ensure active resource upgrades are cleanly handled or reset before major environment changes take place.
How to Get Started
Log in to MyPressable and look for the edit options next to the PHP fields on your site’s main overview card, or navigate directly to the PHP Resources section in the sidebar to scale site capacity instantly.
We’ve introduced the ability to edit existing Plugin Management schedules directly from the dashboard toolbar. This update removes the friction of having to delete and completely rebuild a complex multi-step schedule whenever a minor adjustment – like changing a health-check path or adding a single plugin – is required.
Updates & Navigation
Pre-Populated Editing Wizard: A new Edit Schedule button is available on the Plugin Schedules tab, which automatically loads all existing schedule criteria directly into the setup workflow for quick modifications.
Active Execution Locks: Built an automatic safeguard that disables the edit button and locks down the schedule settings while a routine is actively running, ensuring site updates are never disrupted or corrupted mid-execution.
Clean State Transitions: The dashboard interface automatically clears and resets when transitioning between the editing tool and the new schedule creator, avoiding any carryover data confusion.
How to Get Started
Log in to MyPressable, navigate to your site’s Plugin Schedules tab, and select Edit Schedule on any saved configuration to update its settings.
Feature Release: Automatic Licensing for New Plugin Schedules
We’ve introduced an optional account-level setting that automatically provisions a Plugin Management license whenever a new production site is launched. This update streamlines the site creation workflow for agencies and users managing multiple sites by removing the manual purchasing step from the provisioning process.
Updates & Navigation
Global Activation Toggle: A new management card has been added to the Settings → Sites menu, allowing account owners to enable or disable automatic licensing for all future setups.
Intelligent Provisioning Routes: The system automatically routes new sites to a free trial if the account is eligible, or directly provisions a paid license if prior trials have expired.
Environment Safeguards: Automated licensing is restricted exclusively to billable production environments, explicitly skipping sandbox, staging, free, or cloned sites.
Activity Audit Records: Every automated activation automatically logs a record to the site’s activity history, providing clear tracking for when a trial or license was applied.
How to Get Started
Log in to MyPressable, navigate to Settings → Sites, and flip the toggle on the new Plugin Schedules card to automatically license all upcoming production sites.
Feature Release: Custom Dashboard Views for Your Sites List
We’ve added a new Views picker to the main Sites dashboard in MyPressable, letting you choose exactly how your website list is displayed. This update gives you total control over your workspace, whether you prefer our traditional card layout or a clean, compact list layout built for scanning larger portfolios.
Updates & Navigation
Persistent Settings: Your layout choice is saved directly to your browser profile, meaning your dashboard will automatically stay in whichever view you used last.
On-Demand Details: The new Compact view maximizes screen space by hiding secondary information, but includes a three-dot menu next to each site so you can still check details like PHP versions or datacenters with a single click.
Intelligent Sorting: If you sort your dashboard by a hidden detail (like sorting by datacenter), the system is smart enough to temporarily reveal that specific information so your sort order always makes visual sense.
How to Get Started
Log in to MyPressable and use the new Views picker in the dashboard toolbar to swap between the Standard card grid or the new Compact list layout.
We’ve made it easier to securely share sensitive data with our support team by introducing a temporary credential vault directly within your account. Instead of sending passwords in plain text through open chat threads or support tickets, you can now pass sensitive information – like cPanel logins, SSH keys, or plugin licenses – through a secure channel that leaves no permanent record in your communication history.
Updates & Navigation
Secure Profile Vault: A new “Shared Secrets” option is now available under the user profile dropdown menu to create and manage up to 10 active credentials concurrently.
Single-Shot Access: The system automatically wipes the secret from the database the moment a support agent views it, ensuring the credentials can never be accessed a second time.
Configurable Lifespans: Self-destruct timers are built into the tool, allowing unviewed secrets to automatically expire and delete after a chosen window of 1, 24, or 72 hours.
Real-Time Statuses: Clear status badges (Active, Viewed, Revoked, Expired) let you monitor active permissions at a glance and hit “Revoke” to pull back access instantly.
How to Get Started
Log in to MyPressable, open the user-profile dropdown menu in the top-right corner, and click Shared Secrets to drop credentials into the secure form.
Feature Release: Site Metrics Infrastructure Rebuild
We have significantly expanded the Site Metrics dashboard, increasing the number of surfaced data points from 6 to over 50. This update provides a comprehensive view of site health by integrating detailed resource and traffic metrics into MyPressable.
Updates & Navigation
Four Categories: The metrics interface is now divided into Traffic, Caching, CPU, and Database sub-pages for more granular reporting.
New Performance Metrics: Added visibility for PHP CPU usage, rate limits, visitor statistics, and expanded MySQL performance data.
Layered Cache Insights: Introduced dedicated reporting for Edge Cache. Note that “Cache Hit Rate” (page cache) and “Edge Cache Hit Rate” (CDN) are reported as independent metrics to provide a clearer view of each performance layer.
UI & Accessibility: Implemented consistent summary stat boxes and topic-based chart grouping to improve readability across long data sets.
How to Get Started
Log in to MyPressable and access the Metrics tab for any site. You can then use the new sub-navigation menu to explore the full range of Traffic, Caching, CPU, and Database data available for your site, or simply visit your existing bookmarks to be redirected to the new Traffic view.
We’ve made it easier to troubleshoot site errors by adding a real-time filter to your PHP logs. Instead of scrolling through hundreds of lines, you can now instantly narrow your view by typing a keyword or plugin name – and as you click ‘Load More’ to fetch older entries, the filter will automatically update to include only those additional logs in your results.
Updates & Navigation
New Filter Input: A “Filter loaded logs…” text box is now available next to the severity dropdown on the PHP logs tab.
Refined Matching: The filter searches through log messages and file names. It is case-insensitive and updates as you type.
Consistent Behavior: The filter remains active when you click “Load More” to fetch more logs. It will reset if you change the severity level or refresh the list to ensure you are viewing a fresh set of data.
Improved Visibility: We’ve added a “No matching log entries” notification to clarify when your filter has hidden all loaded logs, distinguishing it from an empty server response.
How to Get Started
Log in to MyPressable and access the Logs → PHP tab for any site. Use the new input field to type keywords like “plugins” or “critical” to instantly narrow your results.
Note: This filter searches the log entries currently visible on your page. If you need to search further, simply click the “Load More” button to pull in more logs, and the filter will automatically check those too.
