I’ve been testing some experimental changes in this new add-on. The add-on requires the latest version of WP2Static 7 from git. It comes with five settings:
Add URLs Detected While Crawling – This can pick up some pages, images, CSS, JS files, etc. that might not get detected normally.
Crawl Chunk Size – The add-on crawls in chunks, which changes the performance. You can tweak this setting if speed is an issue.
Crawl Only Changed URLs – Don’t use this. It’s a work-in-progress to avoid the need to crawl the entire site. Currently it will detect when a post has changed, but it won’t realize that the pagination pages have changed.
Crawl Sitemaps
Detect Redirects from the Redirection plugin – We can’t support regexes, but this will pick up any normal redirects. Not all of the deployment add-ons support redirects yet, but the S3 add-on definitely does.
Hey John! Thanks for the addon!
Crawl Only Changed URLs – looks very promising!
Mb it’s more stable now? Also I’m using a wp2static build from May27 so I assume the addon won’t work with it?
It’s pretty stable. I’ve been using it on all of our sites for a while now. But I don’t think it will work with the newer WP2Static builds. The addon’s latest build works with WP2Static 7.1.6, which came out in December. There were a lot of changes in WP2Static after that, and I never updated.
