JAMStackPress – Power-up you WordPress backend
This plugin extends the WP-JSON API by adding a new useful set of fields to the WP-JSON API response, this new set of fields will make your front-end development easier. JAMStackPress also applies some optional filters 
to the content in order to make it front-end ready (no need to make replacements or ad image width and height attrs at front-end level). Finally we also adds to more endpoints to the WP-JSON API (contact form and sitemap) very useful! 
We think about the possible scenarios of development for your static website, so in other words, we’ll try to make your life easier, so that you only think about developing your decoupled front-end.
<h3>Extra fields (jamstackpress object)</h3>
We include some extra fields that can be activated in the plugins administration page, that will make your front-end development easier:
<ul>
<li>
Human readable date field (uses the locale defined in your WordPress panel): 
<code>"readable_date": "March 26, 2018"</code>

<h3>Extra endpoints</h3>
JAMStackPress includes 2 optional endpoints, always with the porpoise in mind of making your front end development tasks much more easier

<li>Fill and save the rest of the options related to the contact endpoint: Contact email, Contact Fail Message, Contact Success Message and reCaptcha Secret Key (google reCaptcha V3). </li>
<li>
Send a request to the custom contact form endpoint, here is an example of a call to the contact form endpoint using js fetch()
<code>fetch('https://example.com/wp-json/jamstackpress/v1/contact?',{ 
method: 'POST',

}, 
body: JSON.stringify({ 
name: 'Name', 
email: 'example@example.com',

recaptach_token: 'xxxxxxxxxxx'}) 
})</code>
</li>
</ol>

This endpoint will return a full list of posts and categories slugs, here is a sample of returned list: 
 <code>["/sapiente/eveniet-velit-et-aut-est-et-inventore/","/sapiente/aliquid-aut-ut-eius-excepturi-magni/","/nulla-molestias/eius-ratione-mollitia-aliquam/","/uncategorized/aut-qui-repudiandae-nihil-iste/","/uncategorized/test/","/aliquam/","/ipsa-ratione/","/nulla-molestias/","/perferendis-modi/","/sapiente/","/uncategorized/","/unde-temporibus/","/ut-quo/"]</code>
<h3>Content filters & Deploy tools</h3>
Content filters 
– Replace your WordPress base URL with the front-end URL defined in the plugin settings. 
– Add image width and height attributes to every image placed at the content. 
– Add _blank target to every external link at the content.
Deploy tools 
– Trigger front-end build: You can specify a build webhook url for triggering a deployment in your front-end site, directly from your WordPress back-end. This 
is specially useful to keep your front-end site always updated with the latest content, without having to manually trigger a deploy.

Statixly converts your WordPress site into a fully static HTML website — eliminating PHP, databases, and server-side dependencies from your production host. The result: faster load times, a reduced attack surface, and the freedom to deploy on any web server or CDN.
⚡ Benefits: Why Statixly?
<ul>
<li>🚀 Faster page loads: Static websites load 3 to 5 times faster than WordPress sites by serving pre-rendered HTML without PHP execution or database queries.</li>
<li>🔒 Reduced attack surface: Static sites have no login page, database connection, or server-side code on your production host. This eliminates primary attack vectors such as SQL injection and brute-force attacks.</li>
<li>🌍 Deploy anywhere: Host on Cloudflare Pages, GitHub Pages, AWS S3, or any standard web server. No PHP, MySQL, or WordPress dependency is required in production.</li>
<li>💰 Lower hosting costs: Static files can be served from free or low-cost CDN-based hosts instead of a PHP-capable server. Managed WordPress hosting typically costs $25 to $100 or more per month, while static hosting is often free or very affordable on platforms like Cloudflare Pages or Netlify, which offer unmetered bandwidth on their free tiers.</li>
<li>🛠️ Zero production maintenance: Your live site is pure HTML. With no WordPress running in production, there are no security patches, plugin updates, or server-side dependencies to manage on your public host.</li>
<li>🎛️ Live export control: Start, pause, resume, or abort the export from the admin screen and monitor progress in real time.</li>
<li>📦 One-click download: The entire static site is packaged as a ZIP file, ready for extraction and upload.</li>
<li>🔄 Auto-resume on interruption: If internet connectivity drops during export, the job resumes automatically once the connection is restored.</li>
</ul>
🔍 SEO Benefits
<ul>
<li>📊 Better Core Web Vitals scores: Static HTML loads faster, directly improving Time to First Byte (TTFB) and Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), which are metrics Google uses as ranking signals.</li>
<li>🤖 Improved crawl efficiency: Search engine bots fetch plain HTML instantly, with no server-side rendering delay. This signals high crawl health and allows engines to index content more effectively.</li>
<li>⏱️ Higher uptime reliability: Static files served from a CDN experience near-zero downtime, helping avoid Google ranking penalties for frequently unreachable URLs.</li>
<li>🧹 No WordPress footprint in production: Common WordPress paths such as /wp-admin and /wp-login.php are removed from the live site, reducing spam crawling and preserving crawl budget.</li>
</ul>
The admin screen provides the following capabilities:
<ul>
<li>Start a static export job</li>
<li>Monitor live export status in real time</li>
<li>Pause, resume, or abort the export</li>
<li>Download the generated static site as a ZIP file</li>
<li>Download or delete export logs</li>
<li>Delete temporary export directories</li>
</ul>
Statixly systematically crawls website URLs, renders content, rewrites links for static output, and packages the results for deployment.
<h4>Typical workflow</h4>
<ol>
<li>First, build and set up your site as you normally do in WordPress. Make sure all content and settings are finalized before exporting.</li>
<li>Next, open the Statixly admin screen and select the Generate/Export Static Site button to start the export process.</li>
<li>After the export finishes, download the generated ZIP file containing your static website.</li>
<li>Extract the files from the ZIP archive. Upload the extracted files to your chosen static hosting provider. For example, use your website’s document root on a web hosting server, Cloudflare Pages, GitHub Pages, AWS S3, etc.</li>
</ol>
<h4>Important Requirements</h4>
<ul>
<li>If the current WordPress website is on example.com and you want to make the static website available on example.com as well, move the WordPress website to a subdomain and protect it with HTTP Basic Auth, or move it to your localhost computer using a backup and migration plugin such as Duplicator.</li>
<li>Permalink structure must not be set to Plain.</li>
<li>Keep the Statixly export tab open while export is running.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Not for e-commerce, etc.</h4>
Statixly will not work on any WordPress website that generates content dynamically based on user interaction, e.g., an e-commerce or subscription-based website.
Contact forms will not work. The contact form requires immediate backend processing upon submission by the user. However, this is on our roadmap.
<h4>HTTP Basic Authentication</h4>
If your WordPress install is protected with HTTP Basic Auth (for example, a staging or subdomain install), enter your credentials under Statixly → Settings → Security so Statixly can authenticate during export.
Credentials are encrypted before storage and never exposed in logs or diagnostics output.
<h4>Advanced Opt-In Options</h4>
Statixly includes two optional safety/compatibility flags, both disabled by default and configurable from the Statixly → Settings → General screen.
<ul>
<li>
Allow insecure local HTTP fetch 
Enable this only for expired, invalid, or self-signed certificate environments where same-site HTTPS fetches fail TLS verification. This turns off SSL verification only for local same-site fetches.
</li>
<li>
Prefer temporary storage above document root 
Enable this only if you explicitly want Statixly working directories outside <code>wp_upload_dir()</code>. By default, Statixly uses WordPress uploads paths. Please note that this option works only if the intended directory is readable and writable by the web server user.
</li>
</ul>
Both flags can also be set directly in the options table if preferred.
<h4>Need Help?</h4>
If you face any issues after installing the Statixly plugin, please open a support ticket with detailed information, and we will be happy to fix the issue.
