Using
WP-CLI provides a command-line interface for many actions you might perform in the WordPress admin. For instance, wp plugin install --activate
(doc) lets you install and activate a WordPress plugin:
$ wp plugin install user-switching --activate
Installing User Switching (1.0.9)
Downloading installation package from https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/user-switching.1.0.9.zip...
Unpacking the package...
Installing the plugin...
Plugin installed successfully.
Activating 'user-switching'...
Plugin 'user-switching' activated.
Success: Installed 1 of 1 plugins.
WP-CLI also includes commands for many things you can't do in the WordPress admin. For example, wp transient delete --all
(doc) lets you delete one or all transients:
$ wp transient delete --all
Success: 34 transients deleted from the database.
For a more complete introduction to using WP-CLI, read the Quick Start guide. Or, catch up with shell friends to learn about helpful command line utilities.

Installing
Downloading the Phar file is our recommended installation method for most users. Should you need, see also our documentation on alternative installation methods (Composer, Homebrew, Docker).
Before installing WP-CLI, please make sure your environment meets the minimum requirements:
- UNIX-like environment (OS X, Linux, FreeBSD, Cygwin); limited support in Windows environment
- PHP 5.4 or later
- WordPress 3.7 or later. Versions older than the latest WordPress release may have degraded functionality
Once you've verified requirements, download the wp-cli.phar file using wget
or curl
:
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wp-cli/builds/gh-pages/phar/wp-cli.phar
Next, check the Phar file to verify that it's working:
php wp-cli.phar --info
To use WP-CLI from the command line by typing wp
, make the file executable and move it to somewhere in your PATH. For example:
chmod +x wp-cli.phar
sudo mv wp-cli.phar /usr/local/bin/wp
If WP-CLI was installed successfully, you should see something like this when you run wp --info
:
$ wp --info

Updating
You can update WP-CLI with wp cli update
(doc), or by repeating the installation steps.
If WP-CLI is owned by root or another system user, you'll need to run sudo wp cli update
.
Want to live life on the edge? Run wp cli update --nightly
to use the latest nightly build of WP-CLI. The nightly build is more or less stable enough for you to use in your development environment, and always includes the latest and greatest WP-CLI features.
Tab completions
WP-CLI also comes with a tab completion script for Bash and ZSH. Just download wp-completion.bash and source it from ~/.bash_profile
:
source /FULL/PATH/TO/wp-completion.bash
Don't forget to run source ~/.bash_profile
afterwards.
If using zsh for your shell, you may need to load and start bashcompinit
before sourcing. Put the following in your .zshrc
:
autoload bashcompinit
bashcompinit
source /FULL/PATH/TO/wp-completion.bash
Support
WP-CLI's maintainers and contributors have limited availability to address general support questions. The current version of WP-CLI is the only officially supported version.
When looking for support, please first search for your question in these venues:
- Common issues and their fixes
- WP-CLI handbook
- Open or closed issues in the WP-CLI GitHub organization
- Threads tagged 'WP-CLI' in the WordPress.org support forum
- Questions tagged 'WP-CLI' in the WordPress StackExchange
If you didn't find an answer in one of the venues above, you can:
- Join the
#cli
channel in the WordPress.org Slack to chat with whomever might be available at the time. This option is best for quick questions. - Post a new thread in the WordPress.org support forum and tag it 'WP-CLI' so it's seen by the community.
GitHub issues are meant for tracking enhancements to and bugs of existing commands, not general support. Before submitting a bug report, please review our best practices to help ensure your issue is addressed in a timely manner.
Please do not ask support questions on Twitter. Twitter isn't an acceptable venue for support because: 1) it's hard to hold conversations in under 280 characters, and 2) Twitter isn't a place where someone with your same question can search for an answer in a prior conversation.
Remember, libre != gratis; the open source license grants you the freedom to use and modify, but not commitments of other people's time. Please be respectful, and set your expectations accordingly.
Extending
A command is the atomic unit of WP-CLI functionality. wp plugin install
(doc) is one command. wp plugin activate
(doc) is another.
WP-CLI supports registering any callable class, function, or closure as a command. It reads usage details from the callback's PHPdoc. WP_CLI::add_command()
(doc) is used for both internal and third-party command registration.
/**
* Delete an option from the database.
*
* Returns an error if the option didn't exist.
*
* ## OPTIONS
*
* <key>
* : Key for the option.
*
* ## EXAMPLES
*
* $ wp option delete my_option
* Success: Deleted 'my_option' option.
*/
$delete_option_cmd = function( $args ) {
list( $key ) = $args;
if ( ! delete_option( $key ) ) {
WP_CLI::error( "Could not delete '$key' option. Does it exist?" );
} else {
WP_CLI::success( "Deleted '$key' option." );
}
};
WP_CLI::add_command( 'option delete', $delete_option_cmd );
WP-CLI comes with dozens of commands. It's easier than it looks to create a custom WP-CLI command. Read the commands cookbook to learn more. Browse the internal API docs to discover a variety of helpful functions you can use in your custom WP-CLI command.
