Thank you so much for this article, Rachel, it has been such a great help when I’ve had to migrate my files to a different hosting package.

The installer file is very important to the process. It stores specific information to the package you made, so using another installer would not work since it would have different information in it. But you could hire a developer to duplicate it manually using the package itself, since it has all the files and the database information needed.

Hi,

Thanks for your message.

i want to use it to be able to run multiple websites (virtual hosts) on my synology server. On the server with WordPress package of Synology is only multisite (not different scr) possible. Hence i want to back up content with settings, so i can import multiple copy and gife different user right to the websites (src) and dB, so they can mange the sites.

I create a backup already and it copy only “\web\wordpress” and that is ok. But after i want to remove wordpress package on my synology, run installer.php . I want to know how to login after on wordpresss interface. I suppost “http(s)://mydomain.nl/wordpress” ?

I have MariaDB 10 dB on my synology server
“MariaDB is a community-developed fork of MySQL and is one of the most widely used open-source relational database management system (RDBMS). It is highly compatible with MySQL and allows users to effortlessly migrate databases from MySQL to MariaDB. With MariaDB, you can easily and efficiently read, update and manage your data.”

Hope you can help me solve my problem.

I suppose this procedure is also be use-able if you like to switch from http:// to https:// instead of moving your site?
Since Duplicator rewrite all absolute links all internal site links will be adjusted to https in 1 go.
Can that be done in the same DB?

Is my assumption correct?

Does this plugin backup all src (different domais or folders)? Will the restore use one domain and make all other scr sub domains? Like /web/test/site01 or /web/test01/, web/test02/, /web/test03/.
I want to this due multi site (different websites/stc) issues for individual permission per site on my synology server.

Thanks

Hi Gregor, I’m not sure but have you tried asking the developer of royalslider if he has any ideas? He’s normally very responsive

Hi Bjorn, sorry for very late response on this! I know this sounds stupid but were you actually typing in the address of your site and not just copying the link as “mysite…” – double check where you uploaded the file to.

If you’re struggling with using this plugin, there are others that are a bit less technical – check out this post that compares a few different plugins – https://www.wpkube.com/7-best-wordpress-migration-plugins-reviewed-compared/
