Hi
Can I transfer the newspaper theme? If I transfer my website on a new domain then is it possible to transfer this theme also?
What is the process?
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
i’m working on updating an old website in a local environment, would this be able to move all the pages, settings, etc., without touching the content? basically i just want to copy over the edited theme i used, but my fear is that this type of duplicator will also overwrite the content (i took an old backup of the current live site and been using it to test). so i need to make sure i just copy the pages and settings but not the posts, or overwrite any new categories/ pages/ posts that are up to date with the copy i’m working off
Hello !
You will have to do the following:
Edit the template as you can see here:https://www.screencast.com/t/vpXRzB7FYMyV
Copy all the shortcodes from the template: https://www.screencast.com/t/ye2iAqcLVdf
Open a post template like on your new host: https://www.screencast.com/t/sXhnGhmYxJ
Select all the content from here and remove: https://www.screencast.com/t/0cgtSqguH And now paste over the shortcodes you have copied from the old template.
Simply save the template and enjoy !
I hope this was helpful !
Thank you !
i will try this, thank you for your help!
