WP Deployer 1.0.0-beta8

  ( 03-Dec-2024 )

    Fixes and enhancements for specific install scenarios

  • Enhancement : Due to configuration changes, a refresh must be performed (Updates > Refresh the deployment config). Please backup your configuration / DB if needed before updating.
  • Enhancement : On activation, WP Deployer now assigns a fake date to the indexed items so that they are not shown in the export / import pages. Indeed, on activation, we must assign items a track date, but due to the fact that they are not modified yet, they will get assigned a similar track date. By assigning a fake date, we prevent the user from selecting a date that may trigger an export / import page rendering failure due to too many listed items. As an exception, posts (and their postmeta) will get their modification date (post_modified_gmt) assigned as their track date; this will help support more activation scenarios, such as the one when the posts to deploy have already been created before the WP Deployer activation.
  • Enhancement : WP Deployer now supports the install scenario when posts to deploy have already been contributed before WP Deployer activation. WP Deployer will attempt to find the latest matching post (article, page, menu, anything in the posts table) between dev and prod instances, and assign all the previous* posts the same UUID if a combination of values match (ID, post_date_gmt, guid, post_type). (*: previous by ID, not date.)
  • Enhancement : When changing the production instance URL in the settings, WP Deployer now re-tracks (re-indexes) all the local items from scratch. This is required because WP Deployer has to match the local items with the items on the newly declared production environment.
