    With the latest WP package, you can go to app -> Email -> Do not configure mail settings. Then you can install any plugin you like and manage email sending entirely on your own inside WordPress.

    @coniunctio That shouldn't be required. imagemagick is already installed in the WP app container. Are you seeing any failure? If so, can you tell me how to reproduce this?

    @rmdes on the managed app, you cannot update WP. It will behave similar to what you faced i.e it will ask for credentials. This is because WP figures that it cannot write to the code directory and falls back to uploading code via FTP (a behavior I really dislike but I don't think this can be disabled).

    @girish I got it working (I think?) but I didn't change anything, I just rebooted again. I also used WebP express which is free and has more features than the paid options. thanks for checking though!

    A couple of those are still relevant, particularly Yoast and All-In-One SEO and SEOPress. But there is a newcomer that is quickly gaining ground and very popular lately too: Rankmath.

    My recommendations (especially if you don't have crazy unique needs) is to use either RankMath or SEOPress. They are my favourites so far. I've used Yoast before and it's pretty decent, but they charge an arm and a leg if you want additional features (they're way more expensive than the rest - to be fair they are the most established though too so they probably are fine sine large companies won't care about the price and want a reputable brand). So if you need to go to a "pro" level too, SEOPress is the cheapest, and then Rankmath, and both are far cheaper than Yoast. Generally speaking though most SEO plugins work just fine if the needs are basic as if most people's needs for most small business websites (unless they have multiple locations).

    @d19dotca I would add (if you're also moving domain) that in some cases there are remnants of the old domain, and so after doing pretty much what you describe above I tend to use the Better Search and Replace plugin to search for and replace any reference to old domain.

    @ruihildt Updates to packages are rolled out slowly. So if a user tries to check for an update manually (i.e they click for 'check for updates') and they are not part of the rollout, they get shown that message. Generally, it is safe to update anyway but we are just being careful here.

    @girish said in Feature Request (if even possible): Use Backup & Restore to Migrate between WordPress packages:

    Yes, would be great to have this but have to see if it's possible. The main issue is that most of the migrator plugins bring in the source code of WordPress and this is incompatible with the managed WordPress concept.

    I was only thinking Managed to Developer conversions which could be done from outside of WP easily. Just have to change the WP directory at the end of the conversion.

    Developer to Managed is more tricky. It would have to be destructive and overwrite all files that are read only but keep everything else. Possible - but more involved.

    @d19dotca Yup, they cover all sorts of obscure things for all countries, including cash on delivery and other random country-specific popular services. Ebay uses them now. Rates seem pretty fair. Certainly easier than setting them all up individually.
