Thanks for the reply.
I’m a designer rather than a developer, so excuse my ignorance with some technical aspects of WordPress.
If I develop a site locally and put any content (pics or text) into that site, then I’d presumed that the data from my local database will need to imported into my online database. Otherwise I’ll have the proper design online, but an empty database.
When you say data can be imported and exported using the built in tools, do you mean with a plugin, or via something in the dashboard that I’m not familiar with?
