Plugin Simply Static para webs estáticas en WordPress

Who should use Simply Static?

Simply Static is great for sites with no user interactivity, such as blogs (with comments disabled) or brochure-ware sites for small businesses (with no forms).
What does Simply Static do?

Simply Static generates static (HTML) copies of your WordPress pages. It works a bit like a web crawler, starting at the main page of your website and looking for links to other pages to create static copies of. It also includes any images, CSS & JS files, and any other files that it can find a link to.

As Simply Static is creating the static pages, it will automatically replace the URL for the WordPress installation with the URL for the site that you're going to have hosting the static files. So if WordPress is hosted at wordpress.example.com and your static site will be at Example Domain, all instances of wordpress.example.com will be replaced with Example Domain.
How do I set up Simply Static?

Let's assume you presently have WordPress hosting a site at Example Domain, and that's where you'd like to have your static site instead. Your first task is going to be to move your WordPress installation to a subdomain, such as wordpress.example.com. Once that is complete, you'll set up Example Domain to receive your static files.

If Example Domain is on the same server as your WordPress installation, you can have Simply Static copy the static files to the directory that Example Domain is serving files from. If Example Domain is on a different server, you can download a zip of your static files and then upload them to Example Domain.

In the future we'll add more ways to transfer your files to other servers, such as FTP, SFTP, and SCP, and add support for specialty destinations like Amazon S3.
Will this plugin interfere with other plugins?

Simply Static's output is just a collection of static files: HTML, CSS, JS, images, etc. Any functionality that would require PHP in order to function will not work. That includes, but is not limited to: blog post comments, contact forms, forums, membership areas, and eCommerce.

Note that you can achieve some of this functionality by using plugins that interact with third-party services. For example, for blog post comments you could use Disqus and for forms you could use Wufoo.
How is Simply Static different from cache plugins?

Cache plugins -- such as W3 Total Cache or WP Super Cache -- make your existing WordPress site faster by caching pages as they're visited. This makes your site much faster, but still leaves your WordPress installation accessible to the outside world. Unless you keep on top of updates, your WordPress installation can become vulnerable to hackers due to security vulnerabilities that are found over time.

Simply Static creates a copy of your WordPress site that is intended to be used completely separately from your WordPress installation. Your WordPress installation lives on one server and your static site is served on a different server. Or, they're both on the same server, but your WordPress installation is restricted to only allow access from certain ip addresses or with an additional username/password requirement. Your static site is just a collection of static files with no server-side code or database -- nothing for hackers to hack -- while your WordPress installation remains safe and secure.

La verdad es que ya había visto algún plugin de este tipo en el pasado (no sé si lo sigan actualizando en el caso del viejo plugin que menciono), la idea era acelerar el sitio web sin tener que depender de la base de datos.

En esta ocasión no tengo muy claro qué pretende el autor con el plugin, pero comenta que es una buena opción para hacer una copia de seguridad .... incluso tiene opción para indicar dónde queréis la copia...

En fin, a ver qué otros usos se os ocurren porque es evidente que hay sitios que no se deberían volver estáticos... ¿cierto?

Recordar que es un plugin nuevo y puede tener cierto problema a la hora de llevarse bien en términos de compatibilidad con otros plugins o themes al no haber sido ampliamente testeado.

Si fuera el caso te recomiendo visitar la zona de soporte del plugin y hacer el correspondiente reporte para que el autor del plugin lo pueda solucionar lo antes posible.

En caso de fallo grave que dañe tu sitio web, ingresa por FTP y borra el plugin, revisa que el archivo htaccess no haya sido alterado, pues en plugins de caché y seguridad es habitual que este archivo sea sobreescritro y se generen problemas adicionales posteriormente.
