FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

About this plugin
The Versions plugin was built with three use cases in mind:
- By version controlling the entire contents of your Kirby site, you can go back in time whenever something is changed by accident. You can also find out when the change was made and who made it for which reason.
- The content and its history should be backed up externally in case the data center burns down or the server is attacked. This backup should always be consistent and atomic so an accurate restore can be guaranteed.
- In a Kirby site with multiple instances (e.g. staging and production), it should be possible to deploy a new content version to another instance. This deployment should again be consistent.
The Git version control system is very well suited for all of these tasks as it is remarkably robust and provides a lot of useful features out of the box that help with all of these goals. This is why the Versions plugin is built on top of Git.
This plugin is made for you if you have one or multiple of the use cases described above. What they have in common is that the content primarily "lives" on the server and is edited from the Kirby Panel. If you instead want to edit the content locally and push it to the server using Git, other plugins will be better suited for your use case.
Features
- Create and delete content versions directly from the Panel including metadata (time of creation, author, custom label)
- Export versions as ZIP files for local backup
- Switch between the versions on the fly
- Support for multiple site instances (e.g. production and staging) that share their versions and that can be deployed to from a single Panel instance
Note: This feature currently only works if all sites are hosted on the same server (i.e. if Kirby has access to the file system of all sites). - Support for fine-grained user permissions
Requirements
- Kirby 4.0.0+ (version 1.1.0 supports Kirby 3.7.0+)
- PHP 8.1+
- Git 2.5+ (ideally newer for better reliability)
Support for older Kirby versions is provided by previous versions of this plugin. I recommend to update your Kirby installation to benefit from fixes and improvements both in Kirby and in this plugin.
