wp-plugin-update-server

Such a shame this isn't in the .org repository anymore. So many useless plugins here and this one is removed…

Hi, I have read the entire documentation, installed a dedicated WP server for the plugin and managed to get the licensing and distributing the packages properly. Now I am going to set up/test the repository! 🙂 I did have some issues others where having regarding licensing, but it was a server configuration issue. In my case, I am using nginx, and I did not set-up rewrite rules correctly. It did take some time to debug, but with time and patience, so far so good! Thank you very much for developing this plugin! It is exactly what we needed!

I developed some client specific plugins and this plugin provided an easy update option. Thank you!!

The author responded quickly and fixed the issue with packages not being downloaded from gitlab in less then a day. Thank you for this awesome plugin and your quick response.

Granted, the first reply to my support question went unnoticed for a while. But one has to take into consideration that this is a rather niche plugin, there were no previous support requests here and the developer states that support is mainly via direct mail or GitHub. When the reply came the author was apologetic (although it was my fault!). The author was incredibly forthcoming and helpful way beyond what I expected. It's hard to find payed plugins with that level of support – and this one's free. Oh, and it obviously helps that the plugin works as intended 🙂 It is very useful and a real time saver if one has to roll out private plugins to a lot of sites.

Everything works as described. Also, Alexandre gives a great support. All recommendations!
