Moving from one site to another

  1. Bought multi-site license, and installed initially on a sandbox site I play with. Ready to move my forms and initial entries to my production site. Activates fine but all the GF data is missing. Can't even find the right files to transfer. Help? I really don't want to have to recreate all this from scratch.

  2. Your forms and entries are stored in your WordPress database, not in files. They are in your WordPress database. It's just like installing WordPress on one site, copying the files and activating it on another site... your posts aren't going to be there because they reside in the database. If you didn't copy over the database, the data doesn't exist in the new location.

    You can export forms using the Export Forms functionality of the Import/Export tool. However, entries cannot be imported.

  3. Makes sense. I'm leaving a freebie Dreamhost site where they don't let me access MySQL... I guess I'll just cut and paste the entry data. Thanks!
