<p>Statixly helps you create a static copy of your WordPress website, facilitating faster content delivery and reducing the security risks on production hosting.</p>
<p>The admin screen provides the following capabilities:</p>
<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>
<p>Statixly systematically crawls website URLs, renders content, rewrites links for static output, and packages the results for deployment.</p>
<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 <strong>Generate/Export Static Site</strong> 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 <strong>Plain</strong>.</li>
<li>Keep the Statixly export tab open while export is running.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Not for e-commerce, etc.</h4>
<p>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.</p>
<p>Contact forms will not work. The contact form requires immediate backend processing upon submission by the user. However, this is on our roadmap.</p>
<h4>Advanced Opt-In Options</h4>
<p>Statixly includes two optional safety/compatibility flags (both disabled by default):</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p><code>statixly_prefer_temp_storage_above_document_root</code><br />
Set to <code>true</code> (in the options table) only if you explicitly want Statixly working directories outside <code>wp_upload_dir()</code>. By default, Statixly uses WordPress uploads paths.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>statixly_allow_insecure_local_http_fetch</code><br />
Set to <code>true</code> (in the options table) only for local/self-signed certificate environments where same-site HTTPS fetches fail TLS verification. This disables SSL verification for local same-site fetches.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h4>Need Help?</h4>
