Saves me a lot of time – should have moved to MainWP much earlier.
Lost time
by vellkan·2 months ago
I really wanted to give this plugin a chance, but in the end I just wasted my time.
I prepared a local installation for safety reasons – after computer upgrade, it stopped working despite importing the database and files from old one.
OK, I understand, I can set it up again, I’ll export and import the data. Unfortunately, import pages doesn’t work, so I have no choice but to reconfigure over 50 pages…
It should save me time, but if I have to managed this one and check if updates are working on my clients – I will back to log in individually.
Perfect
