Is there a way to migrate the existing events, participants, settings etc. from the current website (vcv.nu) to a new website that is currently being developed? Export/import for example. Current version 5.0.21.p

Hi there,

Just to confirm, are you referring to moving the event espresso data only to the new website?

If so, then unfortunately there are no such options for now.

However as a workaround:
1. Run the WP export tool on the new site, then set that backup aside for now
2. Migrate the original site’s database to the new site (minimum of wp_posts table & all wp_esp_* tables).
3. Then delete all standard WP posts/pages on the new site
4. Then run the WordPress import tool to import the WP posts/pages (restoring the new site’s posts & pages)
5. If there are other custom things like theme options those would need to be re-imported too

This is best done on a staging server before moving the data to a live server.

The other option could be moving the template/pages.

If you’re using theme Builders, you can also export that to your site that has EE then migrate it afterward.

Thanks.
