3 Steps On How to Export and Import a Wordpress Blog
Part One of Three: Exporting #WordPress Blogs
1 Sign into your existing WordPress blog. Click on your
blog name, and select "Dashboard" from the menu.
You should see a list of options on left hand side of
your screen.
2 Find the "Tools" menu on the left hand side, near
the bottom of the dashboard. Choose the "Export" box
from the list of options. You will most likely want to
export your content first, so you can import it
somewhere else.
3 Decide how much of your content you want to
export. The top option is "All Content," and it is the
most popular choice. Click "Download Export File" to
create an "XML" file of your entire blog on your
computer. You may see the option "Guided Transfer"
on your Export page. This is a service, provided by
WordPress.com, for approximately 119. They will
export your website and import it onto the site of
your choice. If you choose to download the Extensible
Markup Language (XML), or website, file, it is always
completely free of charge. Some uploads, photos and
links may not be exported into your file.
You may need to re- upload some of this content
onto your new website.
4 Place the file in an easy to access folder, or on your
desktop. You will need this file in order to import it
later.
Part Two of Three: Importing WordPress Blogs
1 Go to your WordPress.com or WordPress.org
website. Go to the blog page. Find the Tools section
of the Dashboard and select the "Import" option. You
can try to transfer your WordPress.com or .org blog to
a non-WordPress platform. Some content that does
not match the website format may be lost.
WordPress is free, and open-source, so if a web
programmer can install the WordPress.org software
on your new website, it may be the easiest option.
You will already have familiarity with how the blog
can be changed, leading to fewer problems.
2 Choose the Wordpress option, and then choose the
XML file on your computer. Click "Upload" to upload
the XML file to the new blog. Select "Download &
import file attachments" to move your media along
with the rest of your blog.
Part Three of Three: Importing and Exporting
WordPress Databases
1 Assign a web developer to export your database, if
you have never dealt with coding before. It is
important to follow exact instructions to make sure
your database stays intact and uploads properly to a
new website.
2 Login to your local "MyAdmin" to export your
private CMS database. Under WordPress, click the
"Structure" tab and then the "Export" option. Click the
box for "Add drop table/drop view" and the box to
"Save as file."
3 Click "Go" to download a Structured Query
Language (SQL) file. Open the file in a text editor
program. Select the find function to find all of the
previous URL (website) addresses.
4 Replace each old URL address with the new domain
address. You can click "Replace All" to do this in 1
step. Check your document to make sure all the URL
addresses are changed before saving the file.
5 Create a new database for your new domain.
Login to your server and go to "MySQL Databases."
Create a new database and assign it a new user to
serve as an administrator.
6 Login to the "MyAdmin" for your new database.
Under the "Import" tab, select the file you just
downloaded, changed and saved. Click "Go" to upload
the file to your WordPress platform.
7 Find the "wp-config." file on your server. Change
the database details, replacing them with the new
server and domain settings.
