FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Never. The import adds and updates content from the package but never removes production-only posts, pages, or media. Your live site stays intact.
Yes — that is the primary use case. Export from your local WordPress, upload the package to production, preview with dry-run, and apply. URL rewriting handles domain changes automatically.
Yes. Elementor CSS is regenerated in place after every deploy. Templates, global widgets, and theme builder conditions are included in the package.
Pro adds custom post types, navigation menus, widgets, sidebars, theme customizer settings, redirects (Rank Math, EPS), ACF field groups, WooCommerce products/coupons/tax, and WPML/Polylang translations.
Lifetime. One key, every Pro feature, no renewals. Activate from MAD Deploy → Upgrade to Pro, paste your key, and click Activate.
Pro includes auto-push on publish, scheduled auto-exports, multi-target push, two-way sync (pull), bulk resync, and webhook/Slack/email notifications. Perfect for CI/CD workflows.
Yes. Free supports one staging environment. Pro allows unlimited environments — staging, development, QA, pre-production — with named deployment pipelines. You can push from any environment to any other with one click.
Most deployments complete in under 60 seconds for an average WordPress site. The plugin uses incremental sync — only changed files and database rows are transferred, so subsequent deployments are even faster. Large media libraries may take longer on the first sync.
Yes. Every deployment creates an automatic snapshot of your production site. If something goes wrong, you can roll back to the pre-deployment state with one click. Pro retains up to 30 days of snapshots with point-in-time restore.
Pro includes scheduled deployments. Pick a date and time, and the plugin deploys automatically — useful for coordinating launches, pushing updates during low-traffic windows, or syncing with your team’s release schedule.
Yes. Free syncs core WordPress tables (posts, options, users). Pro supports selective table sync, custom tables, WooCommerce order/product data, and table-level merge rules so you never accidentally overwrite production orders with staging test data.
