Hi all,
I (nearly) successfully migrated my site to a new domain.
Everything works as expected but i noticed i lost a lot of my theme custom settings operated via the admin console.
E.g.
- Logo disappeared
- Favicon
- Custom text on the footer
- email on the right side of the header was hidden and now it appeared.
- A custom text on the overlay contact form on the right lowe corner went to default.
I got no error on the database export and import so I wonder where all of this informations are stored.
Before I imported again the sql exported scripts i replaced all occurrencies of the old domain with the new one. So I do not understand why a lot of things went on default.
Any suggestion for future migrations?

Hi,
IF the old installation it’s still online try to save theme options from wp-admin -> theme options -> import/export and then import theme settings to the new domain, if not do those again
Cheers

I read near all the tutorial about WP migration (even the official one) and no one mentioned to check for custom theme import/export options.
How I was supposed to know about it? RTFM as usual.
Very disappointing
I see,
Those should remain if you have moved the database and if you have replaced in the entire database old domain with new one… If you had the install on a staging server try to ask the hosting company to deploy back on the staging subdomain to can get back those settings.
Cheers

During the migration I lost only text strings inside the several text box in the theme settings. i.e. quick css, Contact form text and footer text widgets with html.Now everything seems ok. Next time I will be more careful.
Bye
Ok then
Best regards
Radu
