SeoCms Post Archival System
·
Archive old posts and custom post types to a separate database based on configurable age rules.
SeoCms Post Archival System lets you move old posts and custom post types to a separate archive database, keeping your main WordPress database lean and fast.
Key Features:
- Age-based archival rules — Configure per-post-type rules (e.g., archive posts older than 180 days)
- Custom post type support — Works with any registered post type
- Full data preservation — Archives posts, post meta, and taxonomy relationships
- One-click restore — Restore archived posts back to the main database with all metadata intact
- Scheduled archival — Automate archival via WP-Cron (hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Manual batch runs — Run archival on-demand from the dashboard
- Archive browser — Search, filter, and browse archived posts from the admin panel
- Front-end search — Use the
[seocpoar_search]shortcode to let visitors search archived content - Activity logging — Full audit trail of all archive and restore actions
How It Works:
- Configure a second MySQL database in Settings
- Set up archival rules per post type with age thresholds
- Run archival manually or on a schedule
- Archived posts are moved to the separate database with all their metadata
- Browse and restore archived posts at any time
Shortcode Usage:
Display a searchable archive browser on any page:
[seocpoar_search]
[seocpoar_search per_page="20"]
[seocpoar_search per_page="10" post_type="post"]
