Staatic – Static Site Generator for WordPress

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 73% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

At the current install trend, crossing 4K+ in roughly 186 days.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

   I tried a few other Static Site Generators, but this one seemed to work the best for me. And many thanks to the support team for their help ironing out a few issues we did have.

   This is 5/5 and then some! I tried simply static and it would take 3 times longer, provide no status on progress, and worst of all, it wouldn’t export all the posts or pages. I tried other generators and they either wouldn’t output the custom post type which is part of my theme, or simply wouldn’t work like WP2static. I spent about 10 hours trying to get this export working. I made minimal changes with this plugin to the settings, when things didn’t work the first time I could see what wasn’t working (404’s in my site) just by reading the logs, correcting it, and then uploading the 2nd run through to my host.This was also much faster, the only feature I would like to see would be page caching so that it doesn’t have to rescan because when i need to do small edits on pages without no new pages made, i would like to skip this step as it takes about 10 minutes for my site.

   I tried this plugin because it has S3 functionality. Unfortunately hours of troubleshooting with both ChatGPT and Deepseek did not result in a single working export of my basic website. The URLs were broken 100% of the time, ignoring the critical settings specified. This topic was modified 9 months ago by theskuj.

   This plugin is awesome. The seamless integration with Netlify, GitHub and S3 is really what makes it superior to plugins in the same category.

   I’ve been trying to convert my sites to static HTML for a while now and after trying many different plugins and other techniques. I have to say, this is the best and easiest way to convert a WordPress site to static HTML.I love that this plugin is being actively maintained so here are is a feature suggestion I think would make Staatic even better: Incremental pushes to GitHub.
