Manual for environments syncing

  • On all environments (local, stage, production) install 3 plugins for DB syncing already mentioned above. Tools -> Migrate db. In Settings tab add permissions for push and pull (check both checkboxes on every environment).
  • From the tab Connection info from stage i.e., copy API URL. Then, on local i.e., check Push and past copied URL. With this, we'll copy local base to the stage. Optionally, check Media files if we want to copy media's as well.
  • For copying files between environments we'll use git.
  • After creating custom fields with ACF PRO, in Custom fields -> Tools, generate PHP code, copy and paste it in the theme file inc -> custom-fields.php. Be aware that every change done on the custom fields needs new generating and copying the same code.
  • Enjoy ;)
