Accepted Answer

Use the manual deployment button in the plugin's settings page, or call the jamstack_deployments_fire_webhook action programmatically in your code for custom triggers.

Question 4

JAMstack Deployments vs WP2Static – which is better for automation?

Accepted Answer

JAMstack Deployments is lighter and focused on webhook triggers for existing JAMstack setups, while WP2Static handles full static site generation. Choose JAMstack Deployments if you only need build automation; WP2Static for complete static export.

The plugin doesn't retry or notify by default. You must implement custom error handling using the jamstack_deployments_after_fire_webhook action or rely on external monitoring tools.

How to customize which post statuses trigger deployments?

Accepted Answer

Use the jamstack_deployments_post_statuses filter in your theme or plugin code to modify the array—default includes 'publish', 'private', and 'trash'—adding or removing statuses as needed.
