This plugin completely wiped out my entire site built on the Goodlayers theme. All page content, etc., completely gone. I do not recommend using for the Goodlayers theme.

Worked where others failed

The native Wordpress Export/Import did not work. This plugin did. 5 Stars.

Useless

Gives an error “Failed to copy” and that’s it. Hours of transfering files through FTP just to get this message in the end. Also support tickets that are very old regarding that error have been ignored.

Lifesaver for Migration

Plugin worked flawlessly in migrating media files from an old WP to new. Updraft would restore it, but not register it with the new WP! This plugin did the trick. THANK YOU

Worked Perfect

I was looking for a plugin that would upload the media library from the old website to the new, so I could move the posts over. The native WordPress export, just exported the xml files. Exporting them as json worked better. Thank you!
