Configuration Overview

Configurations let you predefine technical settings for new WordPress sites. Instead of re-selecting PHP versions, server regions, or plugins every time, you can store these preferences once and reuse them across multiple projects.


Configuration Overview


InstaWP Configurations are designed to standardize and speed up your site creation workflow. Agencies, developers, and product teams often juggle multiple sites with different requirements. Configurations ensure consistency while reducing repetitive setup steps.



You’ll be able to save the following details for the configurations you create, modify or use:


Option

Description

WordPress Version

Choose the core version to install on your site (latest or older releases).

PHP Version

Select the PHP runtime for compatibility and performance testing.

Server Location

Pick from global data centers to optimize latency for your audience.

Suffix Domain

Add a custom suffix to your site’s temporary URL for easy identification.

Site Language

Select from available WordPress languages.

Multi Site Installation

Enable WordPress Multisite during setup.

Pre-install Plugins/Themes

Add theme or plugin slugs for automatic installation on new sites.

Additional PHP Settings

Fine-tune runtime behavior (e.g., memory, execution time) as needed.

Customize Configuration

Create site using your preferred customized configuration.


Who Should Try This Feature (and Why)

  • Agencies: Maintain consistent environments across multiple client projects, with default content and plugins pre-installed.
  • Developers: Quickly test themes or plugins under different WordPress/PHP combinations, enriched with auto-generated sample data.
  • Product Companies: Deliver standardized demo sites that look real from day one, complete with dummy content and branding.
