How Do I Export a WordPress Site Code?
If you have a WordPress site that you want to export and move to a new host, or you just want to keep a backup of your site, exporting your site code is the best way to go. There are a few different ways to export your site code, but the easiest way is to use the WordPress Export Tool.
To export your site code using the WordPress Export Tool, first login to your WordPress site and click the Export button on the main dashboard screen. (If you don’t have a main dashboard screen, you can create one by clicking the Blog button on the main menu and then clicking the Export button on the right side of the screen.)
On the Export Settings screen, you’ll need to provide a few information:
1. The name of the file you’ll be exporting your site to
2. The location of the file you’ll be exporting your site to
3. The format of the file you’ll be exporting your site to
4. Your WordPress site’s password
5. The email address you use to log in to your WordPress site
6. The blog address of your site
7. The site’s URL
8. The site’s title
9. The blog description
10. Whether you want to include the comments of your blog in the exported file
Once you’ve entered all of the information, click the Export button to begin the process. WordPress will start exporting your site’s files and will take a few minutes to complete.
When it’s finished, you’ll be able to view the exported files on your computer and on the WordPress Export Tool website.
To import the exported files back into your WordPress site, first login to your WordPress site and click the Import button on the main dashboard screen. (If you don’t have a main dashboard screen, you can create one by clicking the Blog button on the main menu and then clicking the Import button on the right side of the screen.)
On the Import Settings screen, you’ll need to provide a few information:
1. The name of the file you’ll be importing your site to
2. The location of the file you’ll be importing your site to
3. The format of the file you’ll be importing your site to
10. Whether you want to include the comments of your blog in the imported file
Once you’ve entered all of the information, click the Import button to begin the process. WordPress will start importing your site’s files and will take a few minutes to complete.
When it’s finished, you’ll be able to view the imported files on your computer and on the WordPress Import Tool website.
To finalize the process, you’ll need to add the imported files to your WordPress site. To do this, first click the Upload Files button on the Import Settings screen and select the imported files you want to add to your WordPress site.
WordPress will then add the files to your site and update the file information.
