Descrição

This plugin provides an easy way to get involved with Beta testing WordPress.

Once installed it will enable you to upgrade your website to the latest Beta or Release candidate at the click of a button using the built in upgrader.

By default once enabled it switches your website onto the point release development track.

For the more adventurous there is the option to switch to the bleeding edge (trunk) of development.

Don’t forget to backup before you start!

Definições extra

There is a setting to Skip successful autoupdate emails. It functions to disable sending emails to the admin user for successful autoupdates. Only emails indicating failures of the autoupdate process are sent.

The Definições extra tab may contain choices for testing new features in trunk that require constants to be set. A checked feature will add a constant to the user’s wp-config.php file in the format as follows:

define( 'WP_BETA_TESTER_{$feature}', true );

Unchecking the feature will remove the constant.

This plugin resets the constants in wp-config.php on plugin activation and removes them on plugin deactivation. Use the filter wp_beta_tester_config_path to return a non-standard wp-config.php file path.

If no settings are present there is no testing to be done that requires this feature.

PRs are welcome on GitHub.

Being able to choose bleeding edge nightlies vs. beta/rc is a very nice change.

I used this plugin to try/test beta version of wp before releasing in WordPress website. After using this plugin, I found so many positive changes on my websites. in my opinion, it is a must for every WordPress website. Thank you very much team for putting your time and effort for developing this useful plugin for free. God bless you.

Great plugin to install beta releases for testing plugins and themes. It would be helpful to see information about version numbers which will be installed.

I am a very new user of WordPress Beta Tester but I never show as a supporter as WordPress Beta Tester there has all item available and plugins also amazing. The installation system is very easy as a new member/user I am feeling exiting any hesitation wasn't working in my mind. I was thinking for a short time I am playing an interesting game.

So far looks good. Thank you for all your continuous effort to make WP better. It but would have been even nicer, to have a full set a built-in cookie disclaimer for GDPR compliance. Can you please add a cookie (may be filtered by cookies name) preference filter disclaimer with different level for visitors to choose from. Which disables all cookies deploy until the visitor accept one of the cookie level option. There could be a section where the WP developer/designer can have fields to add all the required cookie info and a option to categorise their importance for the filtering for the front end. Thanks. Kindest Regards Jay Vijay
