Sandbox to quickly spin up ClassicPress sites

[joyously]

I’m not sure what kind of work it would take – and don’t think we have the resources right now for it – but, having an option to “Click and try ClassicPress” which spins up a performance-tuned site that exists for, say, 3 hours, would be a good way to show potential users/switchers that “Yes, ClassicPress is exactly what you expect!” without requiring them devote time/effort to setting up a local installation.

I think that’s a great idea. We sort of had this with WP Sandbox – ClassicPress which I complained to them about because choosing ClassicPress still installed latest WP. Now it looks like I get a Connection Reset error. But we could install our own WP Sandbox - How

I agree this would be a great thing to have, and it’s not something we can build ourselves at the moment. However, modifying core WP files is not something I would support if I were running a service like WPSandbox, so it would probably be a good idea to contact them and ask if we can use their service for ClassicPress sandbox sites: Contact - WP Sandbox
