wpdemo.cloud is a service for people who sell WordPress products, such as plugins and themes. You can simply configure a template WordPress site and save its state. By calling a specific URL, the template will be copied and provided to your customer. Your customer can play around with your product as an admin, while your product is safe, since you can encrypt it using ioncube before uploading.

You can encrypt your product source with ionCube before uploading it to wpdemo.cloud

A template is a WordPress installation, so you do not have to touch low level stuff like docker configs. You will basically get a freshly installed WordPress site (the template). Then you do all your WordPress settings as admin and save the state of the template. The demos will inherit this state, but still be completely separated.

You can test it for free, go to wpdemo.cloud and check it out. Feedback is highly appreciated!

All the 4 points are covered by our service.

The workflow looks as follows:

You login at wpdemo.cloud, create a template, customize it as you wish (install your product etc.), click 'Update Template' button.

Now you can either directly redirect your customers to the demo link or ping our API from your site to request a demo.

And yes, there are no collisions. Each demo request gets a fresh install of your template and each demo instance has its own codebase and database.

Unused demos are also garbage collected.

Again yes, you have access to file uploads, admin capabilities etc. You can basically have root access to the WP installation, since it runs inside a docker container. Let me know if you still have questions.

We use docker and create a new copy for each demo request. This way there are no collisions between the demo users.

Using Let's encrypt certs...

The production ready version will launch this week.

nice!

Yes it does. However, they are garbage collected after 5min of inactivity.

When we founded our company Codeneric a couple of years ago , we used to built simple WordPress driven websites for our clients. We weren't WP gurus, but we knew how to combine plug-ins and make them play nicely together to meet our client's expectations. With increasing knowledge of the inner workings of WP we transitioned to providing highly customized web solution backed by the strong foundation of WP. And now, in the past two years, we concentrate our efforts in developing WordPress Products, such as PHMM and UAM. Since we wanted to sell our product, we needed a way to showcase it's strengths to our potential clients. This is where we faced quite a big issue with the current state of live demos for premium WordPress products. Thus, we started the wpdemo.cloud project.

Just a little project I made a few year ago with a friend. It has lots of flaws, because it was not maintained since 2013. However, I think the idea is still awesome and the main functionality works: draw together with other people one a LARGE canvas. (No mobile support)
