It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://ps.w.org/playground/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=3064580) # Sandbox Site powered by Playground By [Bero](https://profiles.wordpress.org/berislavgrgicak/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/playground.0.1.8.zip) * [Details](https://ast.wordpress.org/plugins/playground/#description) * [Reviews](https://ast.wordpress.org/plugins/playground/#reviews) * [Development](https://ast.wordpress.org/plugins/playground/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/playground/) ## Description With this plugin, you can: * Create a copy of your site in a private WordPress Playground instance. * Test plugins from the WordPress plugin directory without actually installing them on your site. Your site is cloned in Playground by copying all the files and a database into WordPress Playground. It may sound scary, but your data stays safely with you and is **not** uploaded to any cloud service. Instead, your site’s data is shipped directly to your web browser where it stays only as long as you keep your browser tab open. That’s right! WordPress Playground runs a copy of your site directly on your device. ### Usage #### Starting a sandbox * Open `/wp-admin/` on your site * Click on _Sandbox Site_ in the _Tools_ menu to load WordPress Playground with a copy of your site content #### Testing a plugin * Open `/wp-admin/` on your site * Click on _Add Plugins_ in the _Plugins_ menu * Find a plugin you want to test * Click the _Preview Now_ button * The plugin will be installed and activated in WordPress Playground with a copy of your site content ### All features * Start a sandbox of your site * Preview a plugin installation from the WordPress.org repository * Export Playground snapshots using Tools > Export ### Resources * [Source code](https://github.com/WordPress/playground-tools/tree/trunk/packages/playground) * [WordPress Playground](https://developer.wordpress.org/playground) * [WordPress Playground repository](https://wordpress.github.io/wordpress-playground/) ### Support For any issues or questions about the WordPress Playground plugin, please open a GitHub issue in the [playground-tools](https://github.com/WordPress/playground-tools) repository. **This is an early preview to gather feedback and apply polish.

Please show a screenshot as well! For example imgur.com/a/7mBqZH0 A video would be even better! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/f2949e1420c186ba7fe9eafb8f5c406b6b29ddebb639e7c7da6f93d39b784643? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great idea, but needs improvement](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-idea-but-needs-improvement/)󠁿 [Martin Sauter](https://profiles.wordpress.org/martinsauter/) 18, Xunu de 2024 I really love the idea of quickly creating a staging website to test something. However, this does not (yet) work as expected: Themes and plugins are copied over, but not activated – while posts and pages are completely missing.
