When selecting specific files (not all) there is a button that pops up “Confirm File Selection” – if you press that button it makes the “Push site” button inactive and greyed out, disabling the push functionality.

I’m on Mac Intel chip.

Hello @charlie-innermedia 👋 Welcome to the community!

The DevKinsta has been in security & maintenance mode in terms of providing updates and I’m afraid that this bug has been in our developers’ backlog for quite some time and we don’t have an update.

> Hi @Adrian_L, I’m experiencing a similar issue. In my case, the “Push site” button gets disabled when I try a selective push. The only way to keep the button enabled is by selecting at least one root-level file. Are there any settings I need to adjust to make this work? Could you check this for me?

While we work on this, please use a workaround.

Select any of the files from the root to be able to partially select files from wp-content. For example, what I do is I select any file from wp-content/theme/any\_theme and then select robots.txt.

This should allow you to push selectively while we work on the bug.

Kind regards 👋
