What is WPChangeSync?

BricksSync started life as a Git-sync utility for Bricks Builder users who were tired of moving templates by hand or cloning entire databases. With version 2.0 it rebranded as WPChangeSync and grew into a builder-agnostic change-management engine: pages, posts, media, menus, widgets, ACF/MetaBox/ACPT field definitions, Gutenberg patterns, and — when Bricks is installed — templates, components, global classes, CSS variables, fonts, breakpoints, element defaults, and custom code all export as structured JSON you can store in a child theme, uploads folder, or custom path and commit alongside your code. The workflow is deliberately developer-shaped: pick your scope, dry-run it, resolve conflicts using one of seven strategies, approve, then push to authenticated remote sites via application passwords — with audit logs and rollback if anything goes sideways. Workflows are repeatable jobs with approval gates and run history, drivable from WP-CLI, REST API, webhooks, or cron, across multisite networks. It's built by Alterview, a small Dutch company, requires only WordPress 5.8+ and PHP 8.0+, and existing BricksSync licenses continue working unchanged.

Key Features

  • *Git-Friendly JSON Exports** — Pages, posts, templates, field groups, settings, and media become structured files you can commit, diff, and review.
  • *Builder-Agnostic Sync** — Works with or without Bricks: Gutenberg patterns, ACF/MetaBox/ACPT definitions, menus, widgets, and core entities.
  • *First-Class Bricks Coverage** — Templates, components, global classes, CSS variables, fonts, breakpoints, element defaults, and custom code all sync.
  • *Remote Push/Pull** — Authenticate staging, production, or multisite targets with application passwords and move selected scope directly.
  • *Dry Runs & Conflict Strategies** — Preview every change, then resolve conflicts via skip, overwrite, newer-wins, backup-then-overwrite, merge, or prompt.
  • *Workflows & Approvals** — Repeatable sync jobs with quick-start templates, approval gates, notifications, and run history.
  • *Audit Trail & Rollback** — Activity logs record every operation; backups make reversal practical.
  • *WP-CLI, REST API & Webhooks** — Script syncs in CI pipelines or trigger workflows from external systems.

Who is it for?

  • Agencies shipping Bricks or Gutenberg sites through local/staging/production pipelines
  • Developers who want WordPress configuration in Git alongside theme and plugin code
  • Multisite network admins pushing template and component changes across many sites
  • Freelancers templating starter sites and reusing component libraries per client

Who is it NOT for?

  • Non-technical site owners who just want backup/restore — use WPvivid or UpdraftPlus
  • Teams wanting full database migrations including orders and users at scale — use WP Migrate
  • Anyone allergic to JSON files and dry-run discipline

The Bottom Line

This is a rare, serious attempt at treating WordPress changes like code, and for agencies living in Bricks or Gutenberg across multiple environments it solves a genuinely expensive problem. The safety-first design — dry runs, conflict strategies, audit logs — shows the developer understands what actually breaks in production. My advice on pricing: the $249 lifetime only makes sense for the true Dev-tier persona running unlimited sites forever; smaller shops should take annual Agency at $179 and reassess yearly, because the honest risk here isn't features, it's whether a small Dutch team can keep pace with WordPress and Bricks release cycles indefinitely. If that risk sits wrong with you, this category has cheaper ways to lose less money.
