- Landing page-specific blocks
- Spam protection
- Live previews

- Draft mode
- Saved page templates, sections, and blocks
- Favorited templates and sections

- Access controls
- Custom scripts
- Color schemes and font combinations

How to Migrate a Page
After installing the new version of the plugin, your existing pages will continue to display exactly as they were in the old version. No immediate action is required.
To migrate a page to the new version, follow these steps:
- Open the page in the new SeedProd plugin.
- Confirm the page looks and functions as expected. SeedProd will automatically migrate the old page settings.
- Click Save. Saving the page activates the new version and disables the old version for that page.
How to Access the Old Version of SeedProd
If you are not ready to migrate or need to access the old version of the plugin for any reason, you can download it from your member area under the Downloads tab at seedprod.com/members.
Moved, Replaced, and Deprecated Features
The vast majority of features from the previous version are available in the new version, either in the same location or in a new one. The following features have been moved, replaced, or removed:
Moved
- Redirect Mode: Now located under the page settings for Coming Soon, Maintenance Mode, and 404 pages.
- Contact Us and Privacy Policy Modals: The current version does not include a pop-up or modal builder, but since SeedProd is now a full page builder, you can create dedicated Contact and Privacy Policy pages instead.
Deprecated
- Referral Link and Prizes: Removed due to low usage. For this type of functionality, see the RafflePress plugin.
- Multilingual: Use a dedicated multilingual plugin for WordPress instead.
- SEO Settings: Use a dedicated SEO plugin. All in One SEO is a recommended option.
- Google Analytics Settings: Use a dedicated analytics plugin, or paste your tracking code into the header scripts under the page settings. MonsterInsights is a recommended option.
- Built-In Auto Responder: Use a dedicated email marketing service such as Mailchimp instead.
- Edit Entire Page HTML: You can still edit HTML within the body tag, and you can add custom scripts via the header scripts setting. Editing the head tag directly is not supported.
- Progress Bar Start and End Date: This setting has been removed.
- Auto Launch: There is no built-in auto-launch setting, but you can configure your site to launch automatically when a countdown reaches zero using the SeedProd API. Contact support for more information.
- Footer Credit: No longer a plugin setting. You can add footer content using a footer block in the page builder.
Migration is straightforward — open each page in the new builder, confirm it looks correct, and save. If you run into any issues during the process, the SeedProd support team is available to help.
