One feature I would like to see is

(thinking…)

Add a "Copy Staging to Live" button.

The Copy to Staging button is so useful for upgrading plugins and testing everything. If everything is good it would be helpful to have a button to send the changes to production. This is a must-have feature in my opinion.

With our addition of WP Merge, this functionality (although more robust than a single button) is now available to Managed WordPress and Managed WooCommerce customers. If you do not yet have this on your account but you would like to have it added, please contact our support team and we will gladly assist you. Thanks!

    I agree with Tanya. This needs be an open feature request. Being told to use WP Merge or some other change tracking plugin AFTER the staging site has already been updated isn't helpful. Need a built-in solution for pushing staging to live. These are features you find on other Managed WordPress hosts. It's a bit misleading to advertising the staging features yet not provide a way to push to live.

    Hi!
    Although this request has been marked 'complete' the solution Jessica is referring to is not actually the one-click solution 'Copy staging to Live' requested. It's another plugin.

    Can we have this request re-activated? There are other WP managed solutions out there that make the copy from live staging available within the managed wordpress dashboard without having to sift through the support articles listed below.

    This would be a much appreciated feature!

    I would love this as I'm changing a site's theme on staging right now and making major changes. Other WordPress hosts have Copy/Push Staging to Live built in and it's disappointing this isn't available yet here. I hope it gets prioritized soon.

    I'm with Adam. This really makes the staging area next to useless short of just double checking a plugin update doesn't break the site.

    Would love to see this too. I like seeing it's planned but that post is from 6+ months ago and it's not there....

    I would like to see this too. Can someone point me to the existing "official" staging-to-live process?
