## Descripción

WPShift Companion connects a WordPress site to [WPShift](https://wpshift.io), a 
hosting and server management platform for WordPress. The plugin is the bridge between
your site and your WPShift dashboard.

**What the plugin does:**

 * **Connect your site** — link this WordPress site to your WPShift account with
   a guided authorization flow. No passwords are exchanged; the connection uses 
   a revocable token.
 * **One-click migration** — move this site onto a WPShift-managed server. The plugin
   builds a complete backup (files and database) in the background and hands it 
   to WPShift, which restores it on your new server. Migration always requires an
   explicit confirmation from a site administrator before anything is transferred.
 * **Magic login** — open this site’s WordPress admin directly from your WPShift
   dashboard, without typing a password.
 * **Managed SMTP** — when your WPShift server provides outgoing email, the plugin
   applies that SMTP configuration to WordPress automatically, so site email is 
   delivered reliably.
 * **Performance optimizer** — a set of opt-in tweaks: disable emojis, embeds and
   jQuery Migrate, control the Heartbeat API, clean up header output, lazy-load 
   media, and harden common attack surfaces (XML-RPC, login hints, author archives).
 * **Database cleanup** — remove revisions, auto-drafts, trashed posts and comments,
   spam, expired transients, and orphaned metadata.

The optimizer and database cleanup work on their own; connecting to WPShift is only
required for migration, magic login, and managed SMTP. A WPShift account is available
at [wpshift.io](https://wpshift.io).

### External services

This plugin connects to the WPShift platform at **app.wpshift.io** (operated by 
WPShift, https://wpshift.io). Without this connection the migration, magic login,
and managed SMTP features cannot function. Data is only transmitted after you connect
your site to a WPShift account, except where noted.

**What is sent, and when:**

 * **Connecting your site** — your site’s URL, site name, and the admin email address
   are sent to app.wpshift.io to establish the connection and identify the site 
   in your dashboard.
 * **While connected** — the plugin periodically exchanges site status and site 
   health information (WordPress version, plugin version, connection state, and 
   WordPress Site Health results) with app.wpshift.io so your dashboard can show
   the state of the site. WPShift can request this information through a token-protected
   endpoint on your site.
 * **Managed SMTP** — the plugin fetches your server’s SMTP configuration (host,
   port, credentials) from app.wpshift.io and applies it to outgoing WordPress email.
   The credentials are cached briefly on your site; they are not sent anywhere else.
 * **Magic login** — when you use magic login from the WPShift dashboard, a one-
   time token is verified against app.wpshift.io before you are signed in.
 * **Migration** — when you explicitly start a migration, a full backup of your 
   site (all files and the complete database) is transferred to the WPShift-managed
   server you are migrating to. This is the entire purpose of the migration feature
   and only happens after an administrator confirms it.

No data is sent to any service other than WPShift. See https://wpshift.io for WPShift’s
terms and privacy information.

### Third Party Libraries

This plugin includes the following third-party libraries:

#### Alpine.js

 * Version: 3.14.1
 * License: MIT
 * Source: https://github.com/alpinejs/alpine
 * Website: https://alpinejs.dev

Alpine.js is used for reactive UI components in the admin interface. The minified
file `assets/js/alpine.min.js` is built from the official Alpine.js repository.

To build from source:
 1. Clone https://github.com/alpinejs/alpine 2. Run `npm install`
3. Run `npm run build` 4. The built file will be in `packages/alpinejs/dist/`

## Instalación

 1. Upload the `wpshift-companion` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, 
    or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to Dashboard  WPShift to connect your site to your WPShift account.

## FAQ

### Do I need a WPShift account?

You need a WPShift account for the connected features (migration, magic login, managed
SMTP). You can create one at https://wpshift.io. The performance optimizer and database
cleanup work without an account.

### Can I use this without migrating my site?

Yes. You can connect to WPShift for magic login and SMTP without migrating, or use
the optimization tools without connecting at all.

### How does the migration work?

After you confirm the migration in your WordPress admin, the plugin builds a complete
backup of your site (all files plus a database export) in a protected temporary 
directory, then transfers it to WPShift, which restores it on your WPShift-managed
server. Large sites are processed in small background steps so the migration survives
page reloads. Temporary files are removed when the migration finishes or is cancelled.

### Is my data secure?

Communication with WPShift happens over HTTPS. Your WordPress password is never 
sent to or stored by WPShift; the connection uses an access token stored in your
site’s database, and migration backup downloads are protected by one-time tokens
that expire automatically. You can disconnect at any time from the plugin’s Settings
tab, and deleting the plugin removes all of its stored data from your site.

### Does the plugin work on multisite?

The optimizer and cleanup tools work per site. Migration of multisite networks has
specific handling and limitations; the plugin will tell you before you start if 
your setup is not supported.

## Registro de cambios

#### 1.1.1

 * Security: the «Disable XML-RPC» setting now actually blocks XML-RPC. It previously
   only refused methods that log in, leaving `pingback.ping` open — the endpoint
   attackers use to make your site issue outbound requests on their behalf. If you
   rely on XML-RPC (some older mobile apps and remote editors do), leave the setting
   off.
 * WPShift screens no longer show notices from other plugins. Those notices are 
   relocated by WordPress to sit under the first heading on a page, which put unrelated
   banners inside the migration panel. Notices elsewhere in wp-admin are untouched.
 * Migration reliability: a failed restore now keeps the uploaded archive so a retry
   does not re-upload the whole site, and reports the real reason it failed instead
   of a generic message.

#### 1.1.0

 * Redesigned admin interface.
 * Safer, more robust migration: free-disk-space checks before a backup starts, 
   better handling of very large files, multisite detection, and migration state
   that survives object-cache (Redis) evictions.
 * Security hardening: a migration now always requires explicit confirmation by 
   a site administrator before any data is transferred; backup downloads are protected
   by one-time tokens that expire automatically; magic login resolves strictly to
   the intended user account.
 * Full internationalization: translations now load correctly and a translation 
   template ships with the plugin.
 * Complete uninstall cleanup: deleting the plugin now removes all options, migration
   state, transients, scheduled events, and temporary files — on multisite, for 
   every site.

#### 1.0.0

 * Initial release
 * Site connection and authentication
 * Site migration functionality
 * Magic login support
 * SMTP configuration
 * Performance optimization tools
 * Database cleanup utilities
