Title: Deploy with NetlifyPress Author: Nahid Ferdous Mohit Published: August 28, 2019 Last modified: October 19, 2020 --- Search plugins ![](https://ps.w.org/deploy-netlifypress/assets/banner-772x250.png?rev=2146696) This plugin **hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress**. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://ps.w.org/deploy-netlifypress/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=2146696) # Deploy with NetlifyPress By [Nahid Ferdous Mohit](https://profiles.wordpress.org/nfmohit/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/deploy-netlifypress.1.1.1.zip) * [Details](https://pcd.wordpress.org/plugins/deploy-netlifypress/#description) * [Reviews](https://pcd.wordpress.org/plugins/deploy-netlifypress/#reviews) * [Installation](https://pcd.wordpress.org/plugins/deploy-netlifypress/#installation) * [Development](https://pcd.wordpress.org/plugins/deploy-netlifypress/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/deploy-netlifypress/) ## Description Instead of going into [Netlify](https://netlify.com) and triggering a deploy everytime you make a change in WordPress, automate and make things easier with the **Deploy with NetlifyPress** plugin. **Deploy with NetlifyPress** lets you trigger deploys in [Netlify](https://netlify.com) (automatically!) without having to leave your WordPress Dashboard. ### Use Cases So, you’ve build a headless static front-end for your WordPress site and hosted it on [Netlify](https://netlify.com), good job! Wondering how would you trigger a deploy in [Netlify](https://netlify.com) everytime someone updates a post in WordPress? Forget going inside everytime an update is made and triggering a build manually, install **Deploy with NetlifyPress** and let it run a deploy for you automatically on each update. If you’re looking for a real-life example, I’ve build my personal site [nahid.dev](https://nahid.dev)( [GitHub](https://github.com/nfmohit/nahid.dev)) using [GatsbyJS](https://www.gatsbyjs.org/) with its source as WordPress and am hosting it on [Netlify](https://netlify.com). I use **Deploy with NetlifyPress** to automate deploys when I update pages and posts. ### Core Features The core features of the plugin include the abilities to: * Automatically trigger deploys on post publish * Automatically trigger deploys on post update * Automatically trigger deploys on post trash * Filter the post types for which you want automatic deploys to run * Add a button for manual deployments on the top admin toolbar. ### Requirements This plugin requires you have a site hosted on Netlify and a Build Webhook URL set up. Here’s how you can get a Build Hook URL: 1. Log into [Netlify](https://app.netlify.com/). 2. From the list of sites, enter the site you want to set up **Deploy with NetlifyPress** for. 3. Go to _Site settings_. 4. From the left sidebar, go to _Build and deployContinuous Deployment_. 5. Scroll down to the “_Build hooks_” section. 6. Click the “_Add build hook_” button, enter a preferred name for the webhook (e.g. “Deploy from WordPress”), choose the [Git](https://git-scm.com/) branch to build and hit _Save_. 7. You’ll be given a Build Hook URL that can be used in **Deploy with NetlifyPress**. ### Installation Installation of the **Deploy with NetlifyPress** plugin is very simple. Follow along with the installation procedure in the dedicated [**Installation** tab](https://pcd.wordpress.org/plugins/deploy-netlifypress/?output_format=md#installation). ### Usage 1. [Install](https://pcd.wordpress.org/plugins/deploy-netlifypress/?output_format=md#installation) and activate the plugin 2. Go to your _WordPress DashboardNetlifyPress_ 3. On the “_Connect with Netlify_” tab, enter your Netlify Build Hook URL. 4. On the “_Automatic Deployment_” tab, choose if you want to use Automatic Deployment, on which actions should it trigger and which post types the actions should apply to. 5. On the “_Manual Deployment_” tab, choose if you want to add a “Trigger Netlify Deploy” manual trigger button in the top admin toolbar. ### Support If the above usage steps don’t answer your question(s), if you want to report an issue or if something is not working as expected, please create a topic in the [Support Forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/deploy-netlifypress/). ### Roadmap I have plans for the following features/improvements in the coming days (subject to user feedback and usage): 1. Admin options migration to Settings API with Ajax support. 2. Success/failure message on auto deploy trigger. 3. Success/failure message on auto deploy status (after completion). 4. Scheduled deployments. 5. Deployment logs. ### Contribute If you want to contribute to the plugin by reporting issues, implementing new features and so on, [here’s its development repository on Github](https://github.com/nfmohit/deploy-netlifypress). ### Sponsor You can sponsor this project and support my open-source development by [becoming a Patron](https://www.patreon.com/nfmohit)! ## Screenshots * [[ * NetlifyPress Build Hook Input page. * [[ * Automatic Deployment configuration page. * [[ * Manual Deployment configuration page. * [[ * A deploy in Netlify triggered from WordPress, using NetlifyPress. ## Installation ### Requirements This plugin requires you have a site hosted on Netlify and a Build Webhook URL set up.

This plugin works beautifully with almost no configuration (just get the build URL from Netlify and paste it in). The interface is nicely designed, and allows for custom tweaking on what actions trigger rebuilds. I pushed “publish” on a post and the rebuild kicked off without a hitch. This plugin’s all I hoped it would be. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/c338021cdbe1c6cf6a8eaf3b5ede11b47e4f24798f778ac6f18ed5b376c1b806? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Simple, Effective plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simple-effective-plugin-9/)󠁿 [zekecato](https://profiles.wordpress.org/zekecato/) March 12, 2020 3 replies Clean plugin that simply triggers a build webhook when changes are made to the site. Dev was also helpful when I had an issue. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/50d7414c06d7efe76cbd3416b729a8838e27da77c52ea056245f3824f9e928a1? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Stable, High-Quality, Great Plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/stable-high-quality-great-plugin/)󠁿 [sahandnayebaziz](https://profiles.wordpress.org/sahandnayebaziz/) January 17, 2020 1 reply I’ve been using this plugin on multiple installs. The Netlify deploys have descriptive titles and the UI within Wordpress is very helpful. Further, the owner of this plugin was very supportive and communicative when I reached out with an inquiry. Overall highly recommend this plugin.
