I fully localize this plugin to zh_TW and I find several L10N issues.
Hi Matthew,
I guess it is a testament to your coding skills that the plugin can go for 5 years without breaking. It seems to be the only plugin of its kind.
You may not know, but plugin developers are encouraged to test their plugins against new releases and update the “tested up to” tag in the readme file.
Doing that does not trigger a new version upgrade. If you do that then the warning message on the plugin page will go away. Also, I was unable to install the plugin from within my site because for security reasons WordPress won’t show plugins that haven’t been updated in so long. Updating the “tested up to” tag will allow users to install the plugin from within their site’s plugins page. There is a discussion of this here, if that helps:

Thank you,
David
]]>There are no “settings” showing on the export page.
Sorely in need of an update, any plans or alternative plugin u could recommend?
]]>Hi, I made a change in your plugin to enable a comparison between the imported and current values, so I could check new and modified entries. I uploaded a copy on my server if you want to check and use it in your plugin.
]]>Any chance this might be updated some day? Or does anyone know of another plugin that does the same thing? When I try to use it with the latest wordpress it just exports everything as if I had chosen the top item. It gives no option specific selection either on export or import.
]]>Hi,
I use the plugin in two different hosting environment. One is ok but another one returns 0 byte json file when I tried to export.
Check Chrome developpers tool, it gave me the message below when I clicked export.
Resource interpreted as Document but transferred with MIME type application/json: “https://mydomain/wp-admin/export.php?download=true&cat=0&post_autho…A4%E3%83%AB%E3%82%92%E3%83%80%E3%82%A6%E3%83%B3%E3%83%AD%E3%83%BC%E3%83%89”.
— I thought MIME Type setting might be an issue here, so I checked. The Ok server doesn’t have setting for json file and not-ok server has setting like application/json.
Thanks for your advice!
]]>Would it be possible to add an action hook at the end of the import process? My particular use case would be so that I can flush the rewrite rules after an import in the event that permalink structure is changed (which would also be a useful addition to the plugin).
Great plugin otherwise. Thanks!
]]>Hello,
I have been trying to import a .JSON file through this plugin, however I keep getting the same error message that the others were.
That being said, I can open the file in text editor with no problems. I have also checked with my hosting and I have the latest version of PHP.
Finally, I tried downloading the files through a different browser in case they were indeed corrupt (because they are definitely not empty) but I still got the same error message.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
]]>Is there any way I can use your plugin to replicate settings from a site built on WordPress.com? I have exported the site and successfully set it up on another server, but the global settings are different.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
]]>Hi,
select all the right options for specific plugins/themes/core is complicated because it is difficult to find and recognize all the options related.
I ask the feature to get an interface that make a separation, showing all the options for theme, plugin and core.
It will really help to use the WP Options Importer.
I really need the feature.
Can you add this feature o something similar?
Waiting your response, I wish you a good day.
Kind regards

]]>I imported all options and it fucked up my new wordpress installation. Now I can’t login to either. How do I undo it?
]]>Hi,
I am getting the same JSON error as the last guy, but I am on PHP 5.4 (also Hostgator, btw).
Please advise how to fix this. I am testing this options transfer for a client.
Thanks!
]]>When I import the exported JSON file, I get an error: Sorry, there has been an error. This file may not contain data or is corrupt.
When I open the JSON file in a text editor, it says: Warning: json_encode() expects exactly 1 parameter, 2 given in …/wp-content/plugins/options-importer/options-importer.php on line 213 (i removed html tags and replaced the absolute file path with ‘…’)
Any idea what’s going on here?
]]>Hello,
When selecting Export > Options and clicking download, the site simply goes to a Website not Available page. This is the message:
The webpage at https://mysite.com/wp-admin/export.php?download=true&cat=0&post_author=0&post_start_date=0&post_end_date=0&post_status=0&page_author=0&page_start_date=0&page_end_date=0&page_status=0&content=options&submit=Download+Export+File might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.
Error code: ERR_INVALID_RESPONSE
Any idea what is going on here?
Thanks!
]]>I am trying to execute this from plugin in the “plugind_loaded” hook
function wordpress_options_blacklist($options) {
$options[] = 'admin_email';
$options[] = 'home';

add_filter('options_import_blacklist', 'wordpress_options_blacklist');But it is not working , Any idea?
]]>Hi there, I have a mutlisite installation, which is a bit old now, and is updated to wp version 3.8.4.
Anyway, for whatever reason every time I export the options, the JSON file is blank.
Any ideas?
]]>Hi there,
I notice that when you use the plugin, and upload a Json file via the WordPress dashboard, that all the option_id’s renumber themselves in the existing wp_options table.
Is there a relationship between the option_id and the option_name, and if so, does this plugin actually remap all options for a WordPress site? And is there any possibility that something may not map correctly?
]]>Hi,
I want to be able to import a select date range of posts from one website to another, is this possible? How?
