Release Notes

We released our PowerTools add-on back in December 2020 and now we’re following it up with a new release containing one primary new feature and a bunch of tweaks. New: Key Charts Instead of trying to describe this feature, we’ll just show you how it looks and let the ole’ “A picture is worth a 1000 words” adage do its…

WPCloudDeploy v4.14.0 is a release focused on cleaning up the REST API and making it ready to be officially supported by our technical support team. We started the work for the api back in V 4.11.0. And, in our 2021 wrapup article we mentioned that the API would be a major focus in 2022. Thus, staying true to our promise…

As WPCloudDeploy matures, we find ourselves introducing functions that are only useful to a subset of our users. Therefore, we needed to find a way to make these functions available without cluttering up the core plugin. In fact, we got a couple of comments from folks on our Trello roadmap cautioning us against adding too many function points to the…

As you might expect, WPCD Version 4.13 will be our last release of 2021. It includes a number of items that customers have been asking for. Hopefully you find this to be a nice little holiday gift! Simplified Staging Sites WPCD has some very sophisticated staging functionality. However, many folks coming from classic hosting expect a much more simplified experience. …

This release is primarily a bug fix and clean up release. Many of you reading this might be disappointed since you’ve probably become used to us releasing awesome new features with every point update. Still, we always try to squeeze something in there. For this one, we have a new item that might get the more experienced among you excited…

WPCloudDeploy V 4.10 has two major new features and a few tweaks. Lets dive in and take a look at these changes. New: Copy Over An Existing Site You can now copy one site to another site, replacing the target site tables and files. This provides the foundation for making a temporary copy of a site as a “staging” site,…

WPCloudDeploy 4.9 introduces a killer new feature that builds on the BULK ACTIONS infrastructure we introduced in version 4.8. Because of the foundation introduced in that release we can now offer the ability to update plugins and themes from inside the WPCD dashboard. New: Update Plugins, Themes & WordPress There is a new tab for your sites – SITE UPDATES.…

VULTR recently introduced an update to their API, moving the primary version from ‘1’ to ‘2’. Version 2.0 is a significant change and, even though version 1.0 isn’t going away anytime soon, we decided to bite the bullet and create a new provider that targets their V2 api. As part of this update we’ve made the process of provisioning a…

We’ve been relatively quiet recently about WPCD. But that’s only because we’ve been busy working on some WPCD internal items such as automated tests and code standardization. Over the last year we’ve been through quite a number of rapid-fire releases, adding more than 100 functional points to the product. So, this summer we decided it was time to do some…
