Free vs paid

Core PUSH is free. Live Push adds a dedicated full-site workflow.

Core 0.8.18 includes GET, Migration, manual and scheduled backups, item-level review, preview-first PUSH, and live publishing. Live Push 0.2.7 replaces the PUSH screen and adds licensed add-on updates in WordPress admin.

Use cases

How this page fits into real WordPress release work.

Evaluate before purchase Install the free core and test staging, migration, backups, item-level review, and live PUSH on the real host.

Budget discussion Explain that the paid add-on sells a dedicated full-site workflow and licensed add-on updates, not production publishing itself.

Subscription objection Position the $77 one-time license against recurring migration or backup tools.

Support triage Point users to the core PUSH screen or the dedicated Live Push workflow without treating either as a feature lock.
