WP-CLI support

Terminal interface WP-CLI for the management of WordPress websites is availabe on our shared hosting solutions out-of-the-box. ie. right after the connection you can start to use the commands starting on wp. Without the manual installation. The only thing you need is an active SSH access


$ cd sub
$ wp core download --path=dev/wp-cli

Using WP-CLI

The use of WP-CLI is not limited in any way except:

  • Limited duration of SSH connection – without the premium console the SSH will last only 1 hour after activation. 
  • Commands regarding to databases – Our web and database servers are separate. Commands such as wp db create will not work.
