lifesaver, really…
by barthdesigns·1 year ago
Thank you so much for the plugin! After long days of working, finally I could solve the copying and also the registering of all media files. Super!

WARNING: Wiped out my entire site.

This plugin completely wiped out my entire site built on the Goodlayers theme. All page content, etc., completely gone. I do not recommend using for the Goodlayers theme.
Worked where others failed

The native WordPress Export/Import did not work. This plugin did. 5 Stars.
Useless
by siki88·2 years ago
Gives an error “Failed to copy” and that’s it. Hours of transfering files through FTP just to get this message in the end. Also support tickets that are very old regarding that error have been ignored.
