WP All Export-Import Plugin

Having trouble duplicating any specific content of a Word-Press site?
Here's a solution in form of 2 plugins.

WP All Import and WP All Export are the name of the plugins that are up to the task.

These are great plugins for importing and exporting specific data of any Word-Press site.

Data that can be exported via "WP All Export" Plug-in

For Importing data we can use "WP All Import" Plugin.

"WP All Export" plugin should be installed in the site from where you want to migrate the content meanwhile "WP All Import" plugin should be installed in the site in which the content is to be migrated.

While Importing data from the .csv file created by the export plugin we have to use some variable in step 3 of new import.
In the following example I am migrating posts from one site.

The variable names should same as headings of the table.

This will import the data from the .csv file. However, the data that you can import totally depends upon the addons that you have purchased.
The free version limits this to a few fields only.

For more details, please refer to this video:-

Based on my personal experience there are some positive and negative points that I'll like to mention,
Pros:-
1.Export Plugin really simple to use.
2.Efficient functionality of import plugin.

Cons:-
1.Import plugin's functionality although efficient but is hard to understand at first.
2.Most of the functions are only available in paid version.

[Note : The Pros and Cons above are totally based on my opinion and not on any poll/survey]

All feedback and suggestions are welcome. I am constantly looking for ways to improve and update my knowledge. You can add your valuable comments with your ideas for making this a better place of queries and their solutions. If there is any better plugin for the purpose please update me.

Happy Testing:)

Inner Pages not working on Localhost

After installing a Word-Press Site on Localhost if the inner pages shows an error like this:-

There are a number of options you can try:-

1.Update the permalinks from the admin panel.
2.Manually upload the '.htaccess' file in the directory having the files of the site(same directory as wp-config.php).

It should have a code like this:-

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

Note : The above options can be implemented for any server.

If the above options does not solve the issue on localhost then make sure if the 'rewrite_module' in the 'Apache Modules' of wamp is checked.

After checking the 'rewrite_module' the above mentioned issue should be resolved.

All feedback and suggestions are welcome. I am constantly looking for ways to improve and update my knowledge. You can add your valuable comments with your ideas for making this a better place of queries and their solutions.
