I’ve been experimenting with ways to deploy WordPress websites, and I haven’t been having a good time. I’m better off just using the export/import functions designed for WordPress and putting the plugins/themes back in manually. I successfully transferred over my brother’s blog and let him take care of the rest of it, and now I’m moving my large ass database over. It’s been importing my images for about an hour now. I’ll just let it do its thing over night and check back on it in the morning.
I had some early beta testers check out one of the websites over at the new host, and much like I experienced the load speed is amazeballs even on systems with ancient architectures. If my brain is feeling up to it tomorrow after 8 hours of public abuse I might tear back into things.
