We’re very excited to announce the final release of WP Migrate DB Pro 1.4 and the new CLI addon. The beta test over the past 4 weeks only revealed one minor bug, so we’re pretty happy that the refinements we’ve been making to our internal testing has been paying off.

This update brings a slew of improvements and features, the most notable of which we’ve already described blogged about over the past couple of months:

This release also includes internationalization support. Our first translation (Brazilian Portugese) was already submitted during the beta and we plan to release it with version 1.4.1. We also plan to setup a GlotPress install soon to better manage translations and allow translators to submit their translations including those strings that come from our API. But if you’re interested in translating, don’t hesitate to get started now.
