Copy&Paste Cleaner. If you want to quickly fill a post or a page with content that already exists, copy&paste is often used and it can destroy the layout of a website!
The basic problem is that if you copy&paste content from different sources into the visual editor, any formatting is copied over. Specifically, whether from text documents, other websites, online-shops and cms or even from social media, something comes along everywhere.
As there are often DIVs in addition to harmless HTML elements, these can cause the rendering of your own website to be faulty or interrupted.
To avoid this, this plugin checks the existing formatting and attributes and removes all those that could lead to a problem and then saves it directly.
If you copy and paste into the text editor, there is usually no problem.
Tested with these page builders:
<ul>
<li>Classic editor</li>
<li>Gutenberg</li>
<li>Divi 4.27</li>
<li>Elementor 3.33</li>
<li>WPBakery 8.7</li>
</ul>

This plugin processes the analyzed and converted HTML only within the respective website. No content is stored or transferred to other servers or services for processing. Data protection in accordance with the GDPR is therefore guaranteed at all times.

Test WordPress plugin updates safely before applying them on the live site.
This plugin adds a “test update” button when plugin updates are available. Clicking it will trigger the creation of a sandbox where you can safely test updating plugins without affecting the live site. Once finished testing the plugin, you can go back to the live site and do the real updates if all is well.
The sandbox works similarly to how WordPress multisite works. We basically tell WordPress to temporarily use a different database prefix and a different plugins directory while in the sandbox, which means while you test the update, no changes are made to the live site.
Disclaimer
Please make sure to always have backups of all your WordPress files and database before updating plugins or themes. We are not responsible for any misuse, deletions, white screens, fatal errors, or any other issue arising from using this plugin.

WP Safe Updates

Title says it all. This plugin could remove so many headaches when users update plugins on a live site and then run into problems that they struggle to resolve. Could it also be extended to include the updating of themes?



Brilliant plugin - should be in core

Just appreciating the effort to solve this tough problem. Would make the life of many site owners and developers easier.



Five stars for the effort alone!

Especially useful for testing and support.



Very helpful
