We are excited to announce the beta release of support for Next.js On-Demand Incremental Static Regeneration for Pages Router on Atlas! 🎉
This feature allows you to manually trigger the revalidation of static pages based on specific events, ensuring your content is always up-to-date without the need for a full site rebuild.
Getting started
- Install the @wpengine/atlas-next package in your project
- Set up an API route in your Next.js or Faust.js project to handle revalidation requests.
- Secure your API route with a secret token stored in your .env.local file.
- Use webhook plugins or WordPress hooks to trigger the API route when content is updated.
Visit our documentation for a detailed onboarding guide.
Notes
- This feature is currently in beta. To use it, ensure you are running Next.js version 13.5.1or higher.
- Currently, our support of On-Demand ISR is limited to Pages Router only and does not include support for rewrites, Next.js internationalization, or the App Router.
- This capability is also fully compatible with Faust.js, enabling seamless integration for headless WordPress sites.
