What is WP Manager and the pre-production functionality?

It allows you to manage a variety of important settings for your website. The WP Manager on LWS Panel excels at making large-scale changes, but doesn't give you the same level of control as connecting directly to the WordPress Dashboard itself. With this help, you'll be able to create a Pre-Production of your WordPress site. This allows you to make copies of your files and folders in order to carry out tests or modifications without the original site being affected. Once all the changes have been made, you can replace the original site with the pre-production site in order to put all your changes into production.
