Sandbox Site powered by Playground

Popis

With this plugin, you can:

• Create a copy of your site in a private WordPress Playground instance.
• Test plugins from the WordPress plugin directory without actually installing them on your site.

Your site is cloned in Playground by copying all the files and a database into WordPress Playground. It may sound scary, but your data stays safely with you and is not uploaded to any cloud service. Instead, your site’s data is shipped directly to your web browser where it stays only as long as you keep your browser tab open. That’s right! WordPress Playground runs a copy of your site directly on your device.
