Hostgator WordPress Plugin

WordPress plugin that integrates a WordPress site with the HostGator control panel, including performance, security, and update features.

Installation

Find the wp-plugin-hostgator.zip asset for your preferred version at: https://github.com/newfold-labs/wp-plugin-hostgator/releases/.

Alternatively, check the updater endpoint for the latest version at: https://hiive.cloud/workers/release-api/plugins/newfold-labs/wp-plugin-hostgator, this also includes a download link to the latest zip file or use this link to access the latest download: https://hiive.cloud/workers/release-api/plugins/newfold-labs/wp-plugin-hostgator/download/.

Releasing Updates

This plugin has version number set in 3 distinct places in 2 files:

  • the plugin header info (wp-plugin-hostgator/wp-plugin-hostgator.php line 14) - this is used in the plugin php code.
  • the constant HOSTGATOR_PLUGIN_VERSION (wp-plugin-hostgator/wp-plugin-hostgator.php line 34) - this is used by WordPress.
  • in the package.json version value (wp-plugin-hostgator/package.json line 5) this is used by the build step to place the release files within a matching version directory for convenient cache busting. All 3 instances need to be incremented in conjuction with new releases via github tagging. (In a perfect world, we have a runner increment and/or validate this)

Languages & Regions

There are some parts to the hostgator plugin that adapt depending on the region and/or language which is chosen. This not only relies on the language setting (which is set automatically on installs in HostGator Latam Brazil for example), but also on the mm_brand value being set to hostgator-latam and an additional option hg_region being set to BR in the case of Brazil. Features should all function in both US and BR setups. See the region.cy.js and region-help.cy.js cypress integration tests for example.
