Web & CMS
WordPress Site
Full WordPress management from the desktop. Manage content, media, files, plugins, themes, and users.
Plugin updates
Releases of the companion plugin installed on your site. The app checks for plugin updates automatically and can install them in one click.
Faster, lighter site metrics
New
- Daily rollups keep metrics fast on busy sites. The plugin now summarizes each day’s traffic once, so your charts stay quick to open even after months of history and heavy traffic. Older detail is folded into daily totals instead of being re-counted on every view.
- One-shot site reports. The app can now pull many metrics in a single request instead of one at a time, so health reports and dashboards assemble noticeably faster.
Improvements
- Lighter on every page load. Visit tracking now writes to the database after the page has finished rendering, and records each unique view with a single efficient write, so measuring traffic adds almost nothing to your visitors’ load times.
- Disk and database size charts never slow your site. These figures are measured in the background on a schedule instead of while you wait, so opening them is instant and cannot time out on large sites.
- Cleaner numbers. A wider net for bots, headless browsers, and uptime monitors keeps automated traffic out of your pageview and visitor counts.
- The plugin keeps its own data tidy. Traffic tables trim themselves once the daily summaries are in place, and connection logs are capped, so the plugin’s footprint in your database stays small.
Fixes
- Inactive-users report works everywhere. Fixed a report that could fail to load on some MySQL and MariaDB configurations.
Full-site backup and restore
New
- Full-site backup and restore. The plugin can hand the app a complete copy of your site’s database, streamed in safe chunks, and rebuild it on restore. Large sites back up and restore without timing out.
- Safe restores. Restored data is staged alongside your live site and swapped in one table at a time, so a failed or interrupted restore never leaves your site half-updated.
- Automatic rollback. If a restore does not finish cleanly, the plugin puts your original tables back exactly as they were.
Improvements
- Links stay correct across sites. When you restore a backup onto a different URL, internal links, image paths, and saved settings are rewritten safely, including data stored in serialized form.
- Cleaner restores. Temporary tables and files left over from a restore are cleaned up automatically.
Page categories stay out of SEO plugins
Fixes
- RightPlace page categories (the folders used to organize your pages) are now internal to the app. SEO plugins like Yoast, Rank Math, and All in One SEO no longer detect them, list them in their settings, or add them to your sitemap.
- No change to how you work: page categories still behave exactly as before inside RightPlace.
REST lockdown survival and expanded metrics
Features
- Stays connected when a security plugin locks down the REST API; the lockdown stays in force for everything else
- Health check now distinguishes a blocked REST root from blocked RightPlace endpoints
- Expanded metrics: WooCommerce, forms, SEO, backups, security activity, content health, and database bloat
- Copied health report includes detected security plugins
Fixes
- Connection status refreshes instantly after pairing
- Pairing works on symlinked WordPress installs
- Log files open reliably from the Logs view
Copyable health report
- Copy button on the Health tab: copies the full report including the 5 latest connection attempts, WordPress, server, and folder info
- The settings page now uses the native page scrollbar instead of a nested inner scroll area
Connection hardening
Fixes
- Database tables now create reliably on shared hosting (a character-set index width issue made table creation fail silently on some hosts)
- Transient database errors no longer cost you the pairing: the plugin answers with a temporary error instead of treating the device as revoked
Features
- Health checks run automatically when the settings page opens, with warnings surfaced on the Connection tab
- Clearer error messages for clock skew and rate limiting
First stable release
Features
- Built-in Metrics: server-side visitor and event tracking with daily snapshots
- Configurable Metrics settings and automatic data cleanup
- Everything from the release-candidate line: brokerless pairing, content and media management endpoints, file sync, health reporting
