Help moving site from subdomain to live

primetime09

I have my main site at [Links visible only for registered users] I copied that site using the duplicator plugin and installed it at [Links visible only for registered users]
in order to upload a new theme and make it look like my main site. I am
now finished and I am struggling with the best way to make this site
live and replace my main site. Some say to use the duplicator plugin but
I'm not exactly sure how to upload the package to the original site.

I was wondering if it is possible to go to my main site say [Links visible only for registered users] and change the url in the wordpress dashboard to [Links visible only for registered users] and then go to my test site at test.mainsite.com and change that url to [Links visible only for registered users]. Then use the velvet blue plugin to update the urls for images etc. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi,

the solution you described is not good and won't work in our opinion. The best way to move site is WP Migrate DB [Links visible only for registered users] plugin and Mfn CB Migrate Tool (to change paths inside Muffin Builder).

Sorry but what steps you expect exactly? Did you read the details about both tools? Everything on plugin pages was explained so we recommend to read the description carefully. There is easy explanation of how to use both tools.
