Selective staging sync for managed hosts
WP Engine, Kinsta, Cloudways & SiteGround.
Premium WordPress hosts provide convenient staging environments, but their 'Push to Live' features are blunt instruments that copy the entire database or require complex table exclusion rules. EZ Page Sync gives you surgical, page-by-page deployment control on top of your existing managed hosting infrastructure.
Key Specifications
The Problem
The Limitation of Host-Provided Staging Pushes
Host staging buttons are designed for site migrations, not day-to-day editorial workflows.
All-or-Nothing Database Clones
Clicking 'Push to Live' on WP Engine or Kinsta replaces the live database with staging data, obliterating live form submissions and customer activity.
Complex Table Exclusion Checkboxes
Trying to manually exclude tables during a host push is confusing and risky — miss one table and you get database schema errors.
Slow Deployment Times & Server Restarts
Host-level database syncs take 5-15 minutes, flush object caches aggressively, and can trigger 502/504 gateway timeouts on live sites.
The Solution
The Surgical Alternative to Host-Level Merges
EZ Page Sync works over standard HTTPS REST API, running on top of any WordPress host without server root access or SSH keys.
Host Agnostic Compatibility
Works seamlessly on WP Engine, Kinsta, Cloudways, SiteGround, Flywheel, RunCloud, or custom VPS servers.
Instant 2-Second Deployments
Push a single landing page update in seconds instead of waiting for a 15-minute host database clone.
Zero SSH or SFTP Setup Required
Installs as a lightweight plugin. Communicates via authenticated REST endpoints with end-to-end encryption.
Reverse Proxy & Cloudflare Ready
Supports trusted proxy IP allowlisting, working perfectly behind Cloudflare, Fastly, and host-level CDNs.
Workflow
How it works in practice
Install on Staging & Production
Add the plugin to your host's staging site and production site, then enter your shared secret key.
Push Granular Page Revisions
Select individual pages or posts to deploy without touching your host's global database backup tool.
Live Production Updates Instantly
Your changes go live in 2 seconds with zero host downtime or cache flushing delays.
Frequently Asked Questions
Questions about Managed Hosting
Can I use EZ Page Sync alongside my host's built-in staging?
Yes! You continue using your host's staging environment to build and preview pages, but you use EZ Page Sync to push individual pages to live instead of clicking the host's risky full-database merge button.
Does it work if my production site is behind Cloudflare?
Yes. EZ Page Sync supports trusted reverse-proxy headers (`X-Forwarded-For`, `CF-Connecting-IP`) so IP allowlisting and security verifications work seamlessly behind Cloudflare.
Do I need SSH access or database credentials?
No. All communication takes place securely over WordPress REST API authenticated with SHA-256 HMAC tokens.
