Description
Preserve MainWP‘s connection details from being overwritten by WP Migrate and severing the connection when pushing or pulling.
If you use MainWP to manage your WordPress sites and WP Migrate to clone sites between environments, you’ll find that your site’s connections to MainWP are constantly being disconnected by the push/pull operations of WP Migrate. This plugin prevents the database fields used for MainWP’s connection details from being overwritten by WP Migrate during both Push and Pull operations, saving you from having to reconnect the site after every migration.
