This is exactly what I did, search and replace in the sql dump.<br /> I'm gonna try out the migrate plugin. Thanks for the tip. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/export-settings-moving-website-to-new-location#post-108481 Thu, 02 May 2013 17:07:18 +0000 Kriesi 108481@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey!</p> <p>This sometimes happens when domain name of the old domain and the new one have a different character length. Sounds a little weird I know:</p> <p>The option page data is serialized by wordpress and then saved to the database. A serialized string allows you to save arrays and objects of data. the problem is: if you change the serialized string with a search and replace and it doesnt have the same length after the replacement than before it becomes corrupted and will no longer work.</p> <p>Most often a user sets </p> <p>- a custom logo<br /> - a favicon<br /> - adds some background images in the style editor</p> <p>all of those are saved with domain name. If you create a sql dump and then search and replace the domain names the options will no longer be valid, thus ignored. You can either just remove the option settings that contain the domain name, then do the search/replace, then import it and then upload your logo/favicon/custom images or you try to get one of the plugins that correctly convert those serialized strings for you like this one: <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-migrate-db/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-migrate-db/</a> </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/export-settings-moving-website-to-new-location#post-108464 Thu, 02 May 2013 15:52:38 +0000 Devin 108464@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Spiv,</p> <p>Using the wordpress export tool should save everything (its the same way the theme dummy data is imported). As far as I know everything is still saved in the options table.</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/export-settings-moving-website-to-new-location#post-108440 Thu, 02 May 2013 14:59:50 +0000 Spiv 108440@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I'm having troubles with moving the website. I've done this multiple times with others, but I seem to run in troubles with all the settings from Enfold. None are in the database tables it seems. I have to set it up all again, but this is kinda troublesome, because I seriously tweaked the styling etc.</p> <p>Is there any guide to properly move this theme and all its content and settings?</p> <p>Thank you! </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/contact-form-not-working-flashlight-1#post-94380 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 17:35:31 +0000 Devin 94380@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi nandanalin,</p> <p>I've answered your question in the other topic post you have on the issue: <a href="http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/contact-form-not-working-flashlight#post-94335" rel="nofollow">http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/contact-form-not-working-flashlight#post-94335</a></p> <p>Please only make a single post on each question/issue as it helps keep the forums more organized and easier to search.</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/contact-form-not-working-flashlight-1#post-94296 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 11:34:02 +0000 nandanalin 94296@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>I am not receiving the emails from my contact page. </p> <p>Seems that the problem is that my script is using the person who is contacting me as the sender and my host doesn't allows that.<br /> How could I edit my contact form to use an email hosted by my host as the sender?</p> <p>Best, </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/smartest-way-to-build-my-site#post-30926 Tue, 01 Nov 2011 17:21:12 +0000 andrewbeutmueller 30926@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>thanks for your advice. i'll report bad or good when I dare attempt again. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/smartest-way-to-build-my-site#post-30890 Tue, 01 Nov 2011 08:26:09 +0000 Dude 30890@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Basically the easiest way is to export the database, replace all occurences of the test/sub domain with the final domain and move all files to the right directory. Then import the database with the changed domain paths again. You can also use tools like <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search-and-replace/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search-and-replace/</a> </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/smartest-way-to-build-my-site#post-30846 Mon, 31 Oct 2011 16:19:27 +0000 andrewbeutmueller 30846@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I did the same thing, i.e. created a Brightbox site on test domain <a href="http://www.greenphoneservice.com/wireless" rel="nofollow">http://www.greenphoneservice.com/wireless</a> and I tried to move to my primary domain greenphoneservice.com - with the help from tech support at my host this was NOT successful, a mess in fact. The wordpress tutor. is also not quite adequate for this theme it seems. I would be very grateful for some support on this issue. I also have a Broadscope site, and I may encounter same problem. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/smartest-way-to-build-my-site#post-6450 Mon, 11 Oct 2010 06:38:43 +0000 jamescferreira 6450@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Will do.

I deleted the last install and started over. I have so far been able to change the "site address" successfully so that the the installed blog (www.myblog.com/stage) can be seen at (www.myblog.com).<br /> Ultimately I want to actually move the site from the subfolder to the root directory so I can have the /stage site as a test site to try new things on. I also want to do this so I can use the multisite feature in the future.<br /> I tried following directions on:<br /> <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress" rel="nofollow">http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress</a><br /> but ran into problems.<br /> I was thinking of hiring someone to do the move for me if I can't figure it out.. Do you do freelance tech support? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/smartest-way-to-build-my-site#post-6376 Sun, 10 Oct 2010 07:33:43 +0000 Dude 6376@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Can you post a link please. the toggle problems are javascript related. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/smartest-way-to-build-my-site#post-6366 Sat, 09 Oct 2010 20:35:19 +0000 jamescferreira 6366@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>And I discovered the toggles I had put in aren't working. I try to create new ones and they appear visually with no toggle function. Help! </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/smartest-way-to-build-my-site#post-6364 Sat, 09 Oct 2010 19:52:31 +0000 jamescferreira 6364@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Dude,<br /> Thanks. I moved my whole wordpress folder as instructed, but some oddities remain. I changed the Site and Worpress address under general settings, then moved it. I used an Update Url's pluging as well. I had changed the Style1.css to make the current-menu item be a different color. Once I moved the site, all of the menus changed to the appropriate color when selected except "Home". When I clicked home, it took me to an index of the old directory. i then created a new menu item in the Dashboard/Appearance/Menus that pointed to the new "Home"URL, and deleted the old menu item. Now, the menu points to the right place, but I can't get the "home menu to change color when it is the "current-menu item". any ideas? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/smartest-way-to-build-my-site#post-6331 Sat, 09 Oct 2010 09:38:00 +0000 Dude 6331@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>You need to move your whole wordpress folder including themes, etc. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/smartest-way-to-build-my-site#post-6301 Fri, 08 Oct 2010 19:33:08 +0000 jamescferreira 6301@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Great! Thank you Noah. When I move it, do I just copy and paste it into the directory, or do I have to install wordpress into that directory first? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/smartest-way-to-build-my-site#post-6264 Fri, 08 Oct 2010 06:03:39 +0000 Noah Hendrix 6264@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>This is a fine idea, a lot of people do this. You can install it in that directory and then when you move it just change the setting in Settings&gt;General under WP Address and Site Address </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/smartest-way-to-build-my-site#post-6244 Thu, 07 Oct 2010 19:49:48 +0000 jamescferreira 6244@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I want to rebuild my current html site using Avisio (which I love) and wordpress. I want to build it somewhere else and then replace my old site with the new one so there is little downtime. My thought was to install wordpress in a different folder on my current site called "stage" and work on it there like this-<br /> <a href="http://myoldsite.com/stage" rel="nofollow">http://myoldsite.com/stage</a><br /> Is this the smart way to do this? What will be the process to then replace my old site. Can I just delete the old site and copy the contents of the "stage" folder over?<br /> Thanks! </p>
