WordPress es formidablemente increíble y brinda varios beneficios que tal vez no espere de un sistema de administración de contents (CMS). Es muy fácil administrar todo en WordPress, desde un nuevo Blog hasta la publicación de noticias. Por eso es tan popular en muchos canales diferentes. A la vez, hay funciones adicionales para cualquier nicho gracias a complementos y herramientas fáciles de usar.
Cuando se trata de ejecutar WordPress en su sitio Web, le quedan algunas opciones. Las compañías de alojamiento administrado como WP Engine facilitan las cosas e instalan WordPress por usted. Pero para aquellos que usan alojamiento compartido, frecuentemente tienen la opción de cPanel, Ubuntu o Plesk.
Plesk es un panel de control de alojamiento web que se puede instalar tanto en servidores Linux como Windows. Si usa Media Temple VPS, es posible que lo haya visto antes. Pero al mismo tiempo puede instalarlo usted mismo y usarlo para administrar las instalaciones de WordPress más fácilmente en su propio server.
WordPress Plesk Toolkit 17 is a Plesk extension to add a range of WordPress functionality. It's a useful (and easy) option to manage your WordPress themes, plugins, security, updates, and more in an easy way.
WordPress Toolkit on Plesk
Plesk is a comprehensive, versatile and secure toolkit for WordPress that provides a single dashboard to easily manage multiple instances of WordPress. Plesk makes it easy to sandbox new plugins, features, and design ideas before publishing them on your live website. For this, you won't need any additional plugins or a separate server - the WordPress Toolkit in Plesk manages it all.
At the same time you can use the WordPress Toolkit to take some of the complexity out of managing WordPress websites. Prepare, clone, sync, upgrade, migrate and other complex tasks - it's easy to do it with a simple click.
The WordPress Toolkit provides a single admin interface to easily install (one-click installer), configure, and manage WordPress. You need to install the WordPress Toolkit extension in Plesk and you can start working with it.
El kit de herramientas de WordPress requiere Plesk (desde luego), así como un servidor PHP versión 5.3 o una versión superior. Si su servidor todavía usa una versión de PHP por debajo de esta, deberá agregar un custom PHP controller. Para habilitar esto, deberá especificar la ruta al binario PHP y cambiar la subscription con el Kit de herramientas de WordPress al controlador PHP personalizado.
At the same time, WordPress Toolkit is free for owners of Plesk Web Host and Plesk Web Pro editions. Plesk Web Admin users are offered a different SE version with fewer features.
Now let's see how you can use the WordPress Toolkit in Plesk.

From this main page you can see all your installations at a glance.

At the same time you can easily change your security settings and view your security status. For that you need to go to column S in section Sitios web y domain> WordPress.
