    StaticPush exports your WordPress site to fast static HTML and publishes it for you. Connect GitHub, choose a repository and push once; from then on every post you publish or update goes live on its own. It handles the details a static site needs: link rewriting, search, feeds, sitemaps, the 404 page, redirects, llms.txt, media on Cloudflare R2 and a private WordPress admin.

Features

  • Push to GitHub, Cloudflare Pages or a ZIP
    Connect GitHub in one click (no tokens to copy) and pick a repository, upload straight to Cloudflare Pages, or download the site as a ZIP. Cloudflare Pages _redirects and _headers are generated for you.
  • Automatic pushes, only what changed
    Publishing, editing or deleting a post pushes the affected pages within minutes. Menus, widgets and theme changes rebuild the whole site. Only changed files are sent, so most pushes are tiny.
  • Fast, safe exports
    Several pages are exported at once, directly from your own server, including custom post types and every page of posts split with page breaks. A push that would delete most of your static site is refused, and a login wall in front of WordPress stops the push instead of emptying your site.
  • Static site search
    A search index and an instant, typo-tolerant search overlay (Fuse.js, self-hosted) take over your theme's search forms. No external search service.
  • Media offload to Cloudflare R2
    Mirror your media library to an R2 bucket with resumable, parallel uploads, pause and resume, and skip rules. New uploads go to R2 automatically, exported pages load images from your media domain, and sizes you skip fall back to the original image.
  • Related posts, feeds, sitemaps and a real 404
    Related posts are built into every post at export time. Feeds become feed.xml and sitemaps get browser stylesheets. Your theme's own 404 page is exported and marked noindex.
  • HTML clean-up and Stealth
    Remove WordPress-only markup (emoji scripts, block styles, Yoast schema, speculation rules and more), add a main landmark for accessibility when your theme has none, and hide the signs of WordPress. Private WordPress mode keeps the admin site hidden from visitors and search engines.
  • llms.txt for AI tools
    Publish a Markdown summary of your site at /llms.txt (llmstxt.org format) with your categories, pages and latest posts, so AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity understand it. Rebuilt on every push.
  • Works with your SEO and redirect plugins
    Sitemaps from Yoast SEO, Rank Math, All in One SEO and SEOPress are exported and redirected, and rules from the Redirection plugin become Cloudflare Pages redirects.
  • Scheduled posts that go out on time
    Overdue scheduled posts are published and pushed automatically, even though WordPress itself gets almost no visitors once the public site is static.

How to use

    1. Download the ZIP, then in WordPress go to Plugins > Add New Plugin > Upload Plugin, choose staticpush.zip, install and activate it.
    2. Open Static Push > Destination, click Connect GitHub, enter the code on github.com and approve.
    3. Choose a repository, or click New to create a private one.
    4. Under Export, choose Full address and enter your public site address, then save.
    5. Click Push > Full site.
    6. In Cloudflare, create a Pages project with Connect to Git and pick the repository (no build command). Every change in WordPress now goes live automatically.

Why go static?

  • Fast everywhere
    Plain HTML served from a global edge network loads instantly, with no PHP or database work per visit.
  • Nothing to hack
    Visitors never reach WordPress, so there is no login page, plugin or database for attackers to target on your public site.
  • Free or cheap hosting
    GitHub and Cloudflare Pages host static sites for free on generous plans. Keep your WordPress install small and private.

FAQ

  • Do I still use WordPress?

    Yes. You keep writing and editing in WordPress as usual. StaticPush turns the result into a static site; visitors only see the static copy.

  • How long does a full push take?

    It depends on the number of addresses (posts, category and tag pages, pagination, feeds, files) and how fast WordPress builds a page. A site with a few thousand addresses usually takes 10 to 20 minutes. After that, automatic pushes only export the pages that changed.

  • Will search, forms and comments work?

    Search works through the built-in static search. Forms can be sent to an external form service. WordPress comments need WordPress, so remove the comment form or use an external comments service.

  • Does it work with page caches?

    Yes. Exports bypass page caches with a query parameter and a no-cache header, so you always export the current version of a page.

  • Is it on WordPress.org?

    Not yet. Until it is listed in the WordPress.org plugin directory, download the ZIP from this page and install it with Plugins > Add New Plugin > Upload Plugin. Your settings carry over when you switch to the WordPress.org version later.

  • Is it free?

    Yes. StaticPush is free and open source under the GPLv2 license, with no locked features. If it saves you time or hosting costs, you can support its development with a coffee.
