Hi! I have a runing website with the old theme and a development enviroment with Newspaper theme and custom pages built with TDComposer.
How do I:
1) Copy my theme settings to my production enviroment (database, files, export some config xml)? Do I need do “re-do” something manually?
2) Copy TDComposer built pages: is there a way to export each page or a batch of pages and reimport?
If not, can I just copy the code from the page and it will work elsewhere?
by code I mean:
[vc_row full_width="" content_align_vertical="content-vert-center"][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width="stretch_row_1200 td-stretch-content" content_align_vertical="content-vert-center"][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width="stretch_row_1200 td-stretch-content" gap="10"]
Hi,
Some users recommend the duplicator plugin for migrating/moving websites, here are some guides I found about it
– http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-move-wordpress-from-local-server-to-live-site/
– https://www.shoutmeloud.com/migrate-wordpress-server.html
– https://pantheon.io/resources/quickstart-guide-migrating-wordpress-site
I didn’t test it but I believe it should make a perfect copy of the website, keeping all the settings, database, etc. Pages and posts, theme panel settings, ad codes in the theme panel, custom code in the theme panel are kept in the database, duplicating it will duplicate these as well.
You could give it a try, be sure to make a full backup before attempting.
Thanks
Hi Simon,
It is not a migration, it will me more like a manual merge.
That is the reason I asked specific questions.
Can you tell me the database entries for:
theme panel settings, ad codes in the theme panel, custom code in the theme panel?
Hi, There is no simple solution to your requaet as you will need to know exactly what you want to grab from the db. Here is an example: https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/230726/export-only-pages-and-posts-with-mysql-dump
The theme options can be grabbed using the theme panel export setting https://forum.tagdiv.com/import-export-theme-settings/
Thank you!
