Convert Regular Website Site to a Staging Site

If you have a site that you want to convert into a WP STAGING staging site with an orange-colored highlighted admin bar, add an empty file with the name .wp-staging into the root folder of the website.

This is helpful if WP STAGING does not recognize your site any longer as a staging site or if you’ve migrated the site with another plugin.
