详情介绍:
- GitHub Releases as the source of truth. Releasery reads
readme.txtat your latest GitHub Release. Each version gets its exact release date, and unreleased work in your repository never shows early. Private repositories work too, with a read-only token stored encrypted. - Updates the moment you ship. Add a GitHub webhook and the page refreshes as soon as a release is published. Or push each release from your own GitHub Action, so the changelog is only published after your WordPress.org deploy succeeds.
- Review before it goes live. Keep new versions as drafts, lock any entry you edit by hand ("Keep my edits"), and trust that trashed entries never come back and that Releasery never publishes or un-publishes an entry you have already handled.
- Knows where your changelog is shown. Each source lists the pages displaying it (block, shortcode or Elementor), and "Create page" builds one for you in a single click.
- Reads real-world changelogs. It understands
* Fixed - …,Added: …, sub-headings like "Bugfixes", "Release date:" lines and dates in most formats. That covers changelogs written in the styles of popular plugins such as WooCommerce and Yoast SEO.
- WordPress.org plugin: reads the public changelog of any plugin on WordPress.org. No account or token needed.
- GitHub repository: reads
readme.txtat your latest GitHub Release, with exact release dates. Works with public repositories and, with a read-only token, private ones. - GitHub Actions (optional): accept entries pushed by a workflow, signed with a secret.
- Lightweight: no build tools, no external scripts, one small stylesheet that follows your theme.
- Newest first, always: ordered by release date, then by version number.
- Understands real changelogs:
* Fixed - …,Added: …, sub-headings like "Bugfixes", release-date lines, and dates in most formats. - You stay in control: publish right away or keep new versions as drafts; edit any entry and tick "Keep my edits" so a sync never overwrites it.
- Safe: tokens are stored encrypted, webhooks and pushes are signature-checked, and nothing is sent anywhere except the requests described below.
- Works everywhere: block for the block editor,
[releasery]shortcode for the classic editor, Elementor and other builders.
[releasery] (all products)
[releasery product="my-plugin"] (one product)
[releasery product="my-plugin,my-plugin-pro" per_page="15"]

常见问题:
How often does it check for new releases?
Every hour by default. You can change this under Releasery → Settings, or click "Check now" at any time. For GitHub, you can also add a webhook for instant updates (shown on the source's edit screen).
Why do some WordPress.org versions have no date?
WordPress.org does not publish per-version dates. Releasery dates the current version with its "last updated" date and every new version with the day it appears. Older versions keep no date unless your changelog writes one (for example = 1.2.0 - 14/09/2026 =). You can also set a date by editing the entry.
Does it work with private GitHub repositories?
Yes. Create a fine-grained personal access token limited to that repository with read-only "Contents" access and paste it into the source. It is stored encrypted and never shown again.
Will a sync overwrite my edits?
Not if you tick "Keep my edits" in the entry's Release box. Trashed entries are never re-created, and a published entry is never switched back to draft.
Does it slow down my site?
No. Checks run in the background on a schedule; visitors only see the stored entries. The stylesheet is loaded only on pages that show a changelog.
