Hey @boonebgorges – I’d love to suggest a standalone import/export – doing all these database imports and exports is definitely not an easy task for the below-average user like me, who became pampered with WordPress turn-key solutions
If you can share some light on the 3 questions I made on my reply to @aljuk that would be fantastic! Sorry to bother with these simple questions…
Hey @aljuk – this was superb!
I am a newbie, but a newbie with endurance
I confess I was puzzled by your answer, but then asked the support staff of my hosting company to help me with steps one and two you listed.
But now I am stuck. On step 3, I understand I should use Notepad (Text Editor on MAC OS) to edit the wp-config.php file that I have downloaded doing step 1 (I’m copying the entire public_html folder using FTP).
Questions:
a) what are the specific modifications I should do on the wp-config.php file in my hard disk after the copying of the remote files?
b) how do I create a new local database? With MAMP? Which configurations should be set for this new database (never did that before)
c) how do I import the gzip backup of the remote database I made with phpMyAdmin?thanks for sharing. Indeed, it is a barrier to user registration.
In my case, I want to keep my network personal and do not need to expand a lot. I prefer to have a handful of people with a great vibe together (and the avatar is a key part on this).
For that reason, in my network it pays off to turn some people off but keep the avatar as a required condition to do the sign-up (and I’d like to have it as an automated part of the system, and not have to be writing each person asking them to add the image post-registration)
