Easily update to prerelease versions of WooCommerce for testing and development
|
|
purposes.
|
|
|
|
== Description ==
|
|
|
|
**WooCommerce Beta Tester** allows you to try out new versions of WooCommerce
|
|
before they are officially released.
|
|
|
|
**Use with caution, not on production sites. Beta releases may not be stable.**
|
|
|
|
After activation, you'll be able to choose an update channel:
|
|
|
|
1. Beta - Update to beta releases, RC, or stable, depending on what is newest.
|
|
2. Release Candidate - Update to RC releases or stable, depending on what is
|
|
newest.
|
|
3. Stable - No beta updates. Default WordPress behavior.
|
|
|
|
These will surface pre-releases via automatic updates in WordPress. Updates will
|
|
replace your installed version of WooCommerce.
|
|
|
|
**Note**, this will not check for updates on every admin page load unless you
|
|
explicitly tell it to. You can do this by clicking the "Check Again" button from
|
|
the WordPress updates screen or you can set the `WC_BETA_TESTER_FORCE_UPDATE` to
|
|
true in your `wp-config.php` file.
|
|
|
|
== Frequently Asked Questions ==
|
|
|
|
= Does this allow me to install multiple versions of WooCommerce at the same
|
|
time?
|
|
|
|
No; updates will replace your currently installed version of WooCommerce. You
|
|
can switch to any version from this plugin via the interface however.
|
|
|
|
= Where do updates come from? =
|
|
|
|
Updates are downloaded from the WordPress.org SVN repository where we tag
|
|
prerelease versions specifically for this purpose.
|
|
|
|
= Does this rollback my data? =
|
|
|
|
This plugin does not rollback or update data on your store automatically.
|
|
Database updates are manually ran like after regular updates. If you downgrade,
|
|
data will not be modified. We don't recommend using this in production.
