Thanks for the quick response @leejosepho
I’m not worried about the theme customizations as it is an old theme…I can easily recreate the users…although I did have a plugin for inserting html snippets that used shortcodes that i might miss…
Here are the steps i’ve taken:
1) create local server on mac with MAMP
2) create new database
3) install fresh wordpress install
4) change wp-config to new database name and localhost
5) export all content to xml file from live site
6) import xml file to localhost (with or without attachments?)
7) copy wp-content/uploads folder to localhost root file folder of same name
8) enter sql query above on new database (localhost) to change url’s
I’ve everything except step 7 before and the featured images don’t import
I will try again! Let me know If I am missing anything! T
Thanks again
