Moving a WordPress site over from one server to another server or copying the site from your test server to a live production server can be downright confusing.
WordPress provides some solutions and there are a few good plugins around that do the trick but I wanted to figure this out for myself right from scratch. Not use any plugins or import tools.
I have found success migrating the database consistently using this tool. https://interconnectit.com/products/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/. My general process is wget THEFiLE && unzip master.zip and then visit siteurl.com/Search-Replace-DB-Master. Had any thoughts on using a script/tool for your workflow?
