Hi,

all we do is just database migration with WP Migrate DB plugin. And the rest is the same as while first installation.

So if i copy the contents of my localhost wordpress directory as it is on production server and migrate the database with this plugin it will be ok or i must install wordpress from scratch??

I use muffin builder so i must first change urls and paths with your plugin before migrate the database and upload wordpress contents on production server??

Better will be to install wordpress from scratches (just like first time) as it is more safe. After whole migration you can use Mfn CB Migrate tool.

If i install wordpress from scratch which files i must copy from my localhost to production server to avoid make all the site from the beginning??

Thanks a lot for your help

You don't need to copy any files from localhost. Just install wordpress and theme (the same was as first) and then move database. That's it! Everything is stored in database, not files.
