Articles are saved in the SQL database, so export your database from current host and import it to new host. If you go to Admin >> Tools >> Database Backup, you can export individual tables or an entire dump. |
Thank you so much friend...... |
I am unable to download the backup file properly. Can you please illustrate the procedure. |
Admin >> Tools >> Database Backup, select articles and dump your articles content. Then restore using the dump on new site. Be careful, bad things can happen if you don't know what you are doing.
