To start, you'll need the .zip export file that we've emailed you. Once you have it, you can upload the site files to your server environment. 


  1. Open the zip file and import the database found in wp-content/mysql.sql to your new environment.
    1. You will also want to retain a copy of this file on your local computer until you are confident all content was imported correctly.  After this is completed, remove this file from your server.
  2. Be sure to include your new site’s database credentials. These can be found in MySQL on your new host, or local environment.
  3. Run a search and replace on your database to update any remaining instances of (businessname).wpengine.com to your new or local host domain. You can use a search and replace plugin for this if needed.
  4. Lastly, it is necessary to update the Home URL & Site URL with your live domain by using this option in the Wordpress backend : https://goo.gl/5EW1Hy
