Overview

WP Rollback is a convenient WordPress plugin designed to streamline the process of reverting to previous (or even newer) versions of themes or plugins from WordPress.org with just a few clicks. Eliminating the need for manual downloads, FTPs, or learning Subversion, this plugin replicates the ease of the plugin updater while offering the flexibility to rollback or jump forward to a specific version. Ideal for situations where immediate reversion is necessary, users simply select, confirm, and apply the desired version without any hassle. Although it simplifies the rollback process, it emphasizes the importance of testing and backing up to prevent data loss or downtime. Additionally, WP Rollback is translation-ready, allowing users to contribute translations through the WordPress.org platform, and offers support via the WordPress.org forum and documentation on its GitHub Wiki.

User sentiment analysis

Users find this WordPress plugin extremely valuable for rolling back to previous versions of plugins or themes after problematic updates. They appreciate its simplicity, ease of use, and seamless functionality, which saves them considerable time and stress by allowing them to restore their site's functionality quickly. The plugin is praised for helping during emergencies caused by faulty updates, enabling users to revert to older, stable versions effortlessly. It supports quality assurance processes and facilitates troubleshooting. However, some users reported that it only works with plugins and themes listed in the WordPress repository and not for reverting WordPress core versions. A minor critique mentioned unclear instructions and database clutter. Despite this, user satisfaction remains high due to its effectiveness in resolving update-related issues.

After a critical error due to an update on on Elementor (ONCE AGAIN!), this plugin turned out to be an absolute life saver as I had forgotten to take backups of the work I had done over a few weeks, and managed to roll Elementor back to a version that didn’t break the site completely. Cheers!

I rolled back a plugin version to fix a bug. It turned out to be about something else – but this tool helped me a lot to get the job done! It works smoothly and neatly! I hope WP Rollback will be further maintained and updated. Now that I’ve discovered it! 🙂Many thanks!

Judging for my camera club was about start and the EWZ rating forms didn’t show up and I could not create a new form. WP Rollback saved me! Thank you – great plugin.
