Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →
WP PlugIndex currently records Wonderful Sync version 1.0.3 as active, updated 5d ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
You rebuild a site on a staging copy. Meanwhile the live site keeps taking orders, comments and form entries. Copying the whole database back would wipe all of that.
Wonderful Sync moves only what you changed on staging:
Changes since the clone: record a baseline right after cloning. Wonderful Sync lists every page, layout, menu, medium and design setting that is new, changed or deleted since then.
Divi first: Theme Builder templates and layouts, Divi Library, theme options, presets, global colors and variables. Divi’s CSS cache is cleared after every transfer.
Conflicts instead of overwrites: if a page was also changed on live since the clone, you see it and decide. Nothing is overwritten silently.
IDs and URLs fixed on the way: new objects may get other IDs on live; references in Divi modules, menus, Theme Builder templates and the front page setting follow. Staging URLs become live URLs, also in JSON and serialized data.
Snapshot and rollback: the live site saves every object it is about to change. A transfer can be rolled back; objects edited on live since then, or whose state is unknown after an interrupted transfer, are only restored when you confirm it. Keep a regular backup as well.
Never synced by design: users, comments, orders, form entries, stock and sales figures, SMTP and payment settings, site URL, search engine visibility, caches. The live site applies these rules itself and refuses such data even inside a bundle. Fields whose names look like licence or API keys keep the live value, and values that cannot be inspected safely (stored PHP objects) are not transferred. Plugins that store secrets under ordinary names are not recognised automatically: classify them with the wonderful_sync_classify filter and check the Inventory tab before the first transfer.
Plugins and themes: never copied. The preview lists plugins and themes that are missing, inactive or in another version on live, and blocks Divi data if Divi on live is older.
Transfer directly over the REST API with an application password, or as a bundle file you upload on the live site. Everything also works with WP-CLI ( wp wsync ), for scripts and AI agents.
Full walkthrough (4 minutes): live to staging, Divi presets, media, menus, block editor posts.
