Instant Command Correction and Re-execution

Correcting Typos Easily

To correct a typo in your previous command, especially useful in long lines: wp plugin install query-monitor –activate ^query-monitor^debug-bar

Changing a Command Action Quickly

If you need to change an action in a command without retyping the entire line: wp plugin deactivate debug-bar ^deactivate^activate

Using these streamlined command line inputs can enhance your productivity and simplify your WordPress management tasks on SiteBay.

Note: Replace ^old^new in the commands with the actual syntax required for command correction in your environment, as this notation is used here for illustrative purposes.
