Features

Hi Dave,
We are working on a data selector that will allow you to fine tune the extracted data. Currently you can turn on/off exporting of database, media files, plugins, and themes.

In about one week time we expect to have picker for:
– database tables
– media files
– plugins
– themes

In about 2 weeks, we expect to have a nicer interface that lets you select database data with friendlier/wordpress terms (posts, pages, users).

Thank you for the question!

Thanks.

I have manually imported posts from a live site to a beta site and I’ll need to regularly update the beta site with posts from the live site.

I have not been able to find a reliable plugin to handle importing posts from another site without having to delete all of the existing posts.

@dave…

A while ago I was searching for this feature and I found :

Thanks! But I need something that is automated. Every 4 hours I want blog 1 to import new posts from blog 2, but I can’t use an RSS importer because I need to import custom-field data as well.

I’d like to update you guys, that we are working on a new feature that will let you define cron jobs where you can automatically import/export blog data from/to a server.
The free version will ship with one or two cron jobs (we haven’t decided yet) while the commercial version will have unlimited cron jobs.
The other feature that we will add, import to and from a server – free version will let you define just one server while the commercial version will allow unlimited servers.
I’d like to ask you for your input on the features that we include in the free and in the commercial version. What do you think is a good ratio as we don’t want to overlimit the free version. We want it to be useful for blog owners with one to two blogs. But if you have more than 2 blogs that are large in size then you would naturally go for the commercial version.
What do you think?

In my case I use wordpress very often with 3 different environments: dev, staging and production.

I would love to have a cron that would update the files and posts from production to dev.
And going from dev to production with a manual action.

Another great feature would be an option to delete the transient records on the targeted environment… Sometimes from one environment to another I have some bugs when the serialized object is to complex on the transient.
