Synchronization of User Account Credentials with Staging Site

Synchronizing user account credentials to the staging site is essential when you want to make sure that your users have the same access and roles on both the live and staging sites. Follow these steps to synchronize user account credentials to the staging site.

For example, If the login credentials on your staging site do not work any longer, you can use WP Staging to syncronize and transfer the actual live site admin user to the staging site to get back access to the staging site.

How to Transfer the WordPress Admin User to the Staging Site

1. Navigate to WP Staging > Sites

2. Click “Actions”

Actions > Sync User Account

3. Click “Sync User Account”

4. Click “Proceed”

5. Click “OK”
