Install
No release zip yet. The repository archive installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow:
wp plugin install https://github.com/wpdevopss/launch-press/archive/refs/heads/main.zipLaunch Press is a lightweight WordPress developer utility plugin that automates the common setup tasks required after installing a fresh WordPress site.
Instead of repeating the same manual configuration on every project, Launch Press lets you handle everything from one centralized dashboard — helping developers launch projects faster, cleaner, and more consistently.
