Installing and Activating WordPress Multisite Plugins on Your WordPress Network

Post by mouakter13 »

Backing up and migrating your entire network is the same as backing up and migrating a single site – the process is no different. But backing up and migrating subsites within your network is even more complicated because the way files and data for subsites are stored isn’t exactly straightforward:

Each site has its own set of database tables, but all sites store their users in the network-wide wp-users and wp-usermeta tables. This is so that a user from the network can be added to another site without needing to create a new account. But it does mean that exporting users isn't as easy as the other tables.
Sites have their upload files stored separately, in a dedicated directory for each subsite within wp-content/uploads. This makes it easy to migrate files from a subsite or migrate files to it.
Plugins and themes are stored once for the network but activated dominican republic phone number data for individual sites. If you want to migrate or backup plugins you will need to identify which ones are used for each individual site.
So, is it impossible to backup and migrate subsites in and out of a multisite network? Of course not! There are a number of premium plugins you can use to do this, and some free methods.

In this article, we will show you all of those so that you can backup and migrate your subsites yourself.
