Our Migration Wizard can import ZIP archives that must contain the following content:
Your WordPress
wp-content
folder containing folders:plugins
,themes
,uploads
.A Database dump file in
SQL
file format with the full contents of the database. WordPress core database definitions and table names should be present in the dump.A wp-config.php file specifying the table prefix. This must match the table prefix in your database dump file.
The following archive formats and structures are supported:
database.sql,dup-database__(.*)\.sql$
: Duplicator plugin, flat ZIP file.mysql.sql
: WPEngine, flat ZIP file.wp-content/mysqldb-dump.sql
: Pressidium Instant Backup, flat ZIP file.bvfulldump.sql
: BlogVault Archive, flat ZIP file.
The following archives format are NOT supported:
Duplicator Pro custom DupArchive (
.daf
) format.
Important:
If the migrator fails to detect a database dump in the above locations, it will scan the archive for any file matching the pattern
*.sql
. The first match will be used as the database dump to import.Ensure that the archive does not contain multiple
wp-config.php
files or multiple nested WordPress installations as this might result in the migration process failing.
