Thanks for watching! Would you be interested in more WP-CLI content?

[andersa]

I'd be very interested in more WP-CLI stuff

[tarasdashkevych]

I would be interested to see more videos on this topic 👍

[christopherjschultz]

This is great. I would definitely be keen for more videos on WP CLI. Cheers!

[VitoMariaCusumano]

Great idea, wp cli is an essential node in learning wordpress.

[jasonetaylor]

Would love to see another video of more on wp-cli

[LongPeter]

Some more background info for command line novices would be great. Are you using SSH and installing WP CLI onto a remote server? Or installing it onto your local machine in something like Terminal then connecting to a remote server?

[dsimmons]

Totally dug this! More Please! (I don't know what I don't know!)

[actualidadgratis]

Awesome video! thank you for share your knowledge

[craftcards_nl]

I would love to see more about this topic

[ashleyredman]

More content on the cli would be sweet, I’ve recently switched to spinupWP for hosting and use the cli to auto activate wp maintenance mode when a git deploy is taking place, good stuff!

[opinionatedako]

how did you connect that to your live site??

[josuebarros-desenvolvedorw]

Its amazing!!! Please keep it up with Bedrock/Sage content too please

[PhiluxPhoto]

This CLI seems super powerful. Thanks. I could use a super beginner introduction, "Hello World". I don't even understand where to install CLI, is it WP plugin ? Does it go on the hosting server ? What's the syntax ? What is curl ? Where do I open that CLI ? What are the prerequisites. Thanks !

how can i manage existing wordpress through wp-cli? None of google resources say about that. Just about starting from scratch :)

[MrDefix]

Cool, keep going with wp cli! Also backup/restore or maybe automated backup with server cron job will be nice..

[deividaskrupstas]

Yes please more! How to transfer database with CLI or the entire site.

[afflictionmarketing]

Sure, but even after this watching. I don't have any idea how to connect with my hostgator account???

Can you please help me.

Hey Alex great one again defiantly looking forward for more wp-cli. just one question how did you open a terminal connected to site ground without SSH?
plus do I need to install wp-cli on Siteground its not that clear from the video. cheers in advance

For any devs working with "Local" from localwp.com you will need to right-click on the site name and select "Open Site Shell" in order to run certain commands like "wp plugin". Before using the "Open Site Shell" option I received an error saying "Error establishing a database connection". I hope this helps some of you.
