Sync Code Snippets using WPChangeSync

Your Code Snippets are functionality you do not want to copy-paste between sites. Move them as version-controlled files instead.
Why

Why sync Code Snippets using WPChangeSync?

Core capability

Keep Code Snippets identical across every site

Code Snippets stores your PHP, CSS and JS snippets in the database, where they are easy to lose in a migration. WPChangeSync exports them as Git-friendly JSON, so the snippets you tested on staging deploy to production deliberately, with a dry run and rollback, like shipping code, because it is.

FAQ

Common questions about syncing Code Snippets

What Code Snippets data can I sync with WPChangeSync?
WPChangeSync moves your snippets, snippet settings, tags and settings as Git-friendly JSON you can review, move between sites and roll back.
Does Code Snippets need to support WPChangeSync?
No. Code Snippets does not need to know about WPChangeSync. You sync its data yourself with a no-code custom data source in Settings, and it works today.
Will syncing Code Snippets overwrite my live site?
No. WPChangeSync previews every change as a dry run and lets you choose exactly what to apply, with backups and one-click rollback if anything looks wrong.
Do I need Code Snippets active on both sites?
Yes. Keep Code Snippets active on the source and the target so its data has somewhere to land. WPChangeSync moves the configuration, and Code Snippets renders it.
