    One particular issue dealt with the WP XML file that we exported and then reimported three days later.

    1) Only the Woo Commerce Products and their categories were imported. But NOT the WooCommerce Settings.

    2) None of our Widget info was imported. So we had to redo all of our widgets.

    3) Our “Meet The Team” page reverted back to the default, without any of our team photos

    4) Our navigation Mega Menus was not configured.

    5) NOTE: Our navigation is missing the…

    Hey!

    Basically everything you are describing is due to limitations of the wordpress importer and it sounds that everything worked as it should, although probably not as you expected.

    The big problem in general is that the importer does not import settings. We had to do a major modification to import at least our theme settings but would need to do a lot more to also import woocommerce settings, which we found not practical.

    Same goes for mega menus and widgets. The are never imported by the default wordpress importer so the theme importer does not import that as well.

    The only thing that is weird is that the one page portfolio and the front page was not included. are you running the latest version of the theme?

    Thanks for the informative reply.

    Much props to your theme. We love it.

    =====================

    1) But why did it not import the “Meet the Team” photos and wording ?

    =====================

    2) There is another author on Themeforest.net by the name of Sara P. (“Your Inspiration Themes )

    http://themeforest.net/user/Sara_p/portfolio

    And they use a GZ file to import and export everything (setting, images, layouts) from within the admin panel of all their themes. Could you come up with something like this in your next update?

    ============

    3) Could you go into our WP-Admin are and create the two missing pages that were not imported.

    If yes, how can we send you a private email with the login credentials ?

    #136355

    Oh yes.

    The version is Enfold 1.91

    It also did not import the “Headers” and “Features” pages.

    Or the sliders and galleries for some of the home page layouts.

    Hi turner2f,

    Just an FYI the import doesn’t actually import every single page from the demo. Its an assortment to try and give you a good starting point and examples for most of the features but the demo has some content that isn’t able to be shared.

    When moving installations, I would recommend not relying on the wordpress export and instead use a database export using something like: WP MIGRATE DB

    Hey,

    Please switch the Avia Layout Builder to debug. Edit functions.php, find this code:

    if(isset($avia_config['use_child_theme_functions_only'])) return;

    Below, add this code:

    //set builder mode to debug
    add_action('avia_builder_mode', "builder_set_debug");
    function builder_set_debug()
    {
    return "debug";
    }

    The actual shortcode will show below the Advance Layout Editor. Copy this shortcodes for each page:

    One Page Portfolio: http://pastebin.com/EKLLhxB1

    The Front Page Shop: http://pastebin.com/zG2jWifF

    Do we ever need to import the WPXML file if we have already imported the SQL file?

    Once we purchase another license, what is the best way to clone the site under a different domain name and host ?

    #136361

    No, imo WPXML is useless in this case. I’d recommend to use a plugin like: WP MIGRATE DB to generate the database backup file, then import the sql file on the other server/host and use ftp to upload the theme/wordpress, etc. files.

    #136362

    What about a database that is created through C-Panel ?

    #136363

    Afaik cpanel itself doesn’t allow you to manipulate the database but it comes with phpmyadmin which allows you to import any sql database file. You can use WP MIGRATE DB to generate it and then use phpmyadmin to import it on the other server.
