We had a great meetup tonight! The livestream lost connection briefly towards the end of the presentation, but we restarted it and recorded both pieces. The topic was how to move a WordPress site from host to host. For example, you’re developing a new site on your laptop using MAMP, WAMP, XAMP, etc. The steps we went through tonight were that exact scenario. Bill Erickson, who wrote an outstanding blog post on moving a WordPress site, had several tips and caveats for different scenarios: you’re developing a theme for a client’s existing site. You’re building a whole new version of a live site, etc. Nick Batik brought in some more considerations as well.
