  • Run Bitnami WordPress in the cloud. Get the ease of use of Bitnami in the cloud! Bitnami Cloud Hosting provides automatic backups, monitoring, and more.
  • You will either need to install WordPress in the ‘Add On’ domain’s subdirectories or else use the multisite Bitnami Install and the built-in multisite domain mapping.

Migrate Data From One WordPress Instance to Another

There are two different ways to upgrade and maintain your WordPress installation:

  • Use the built-in upgrade feature. Read detailed instructions for this.
  • Migrate your installation to a new server instance with an updated version of the application and/or underlying components.

This guide describes the second option. We recommend that you do this from time to time to make sure that you not only have the best and latest version of WordPress, but also have the latest (and most secure) versions of Apache, MySQL and other software that WordPress runs on. We regularly refresh the images available in the Bitnami library to make sure that you always have access to the most up-to-date software.

Bitnami WordPress Stack is pre-configured and ready-to-use immediately on any of the platforms below. Quickly deploy your applications to the cloud and make them available online. Only pay for the resources you use. If your application requires advanced performance and features, check our Multi-Tier templates.

Migrating your WordPress blog or website with the “All-in-One WP Migration” plugin is a two-step process. First, you must export the contents of the WordPress instance that you wish to migrate. Then, you must upload and import the archive file created by the export process to the new WordPress instance.

This tutorial assumes that:

  • You are using the Bitnami WordPress Stack (not the WordPress Multisite Stack) on both the source and destination WordPress blogs or websites.
  • The “All-in-One WP Migration” plugin has been activated on both the source and destination WordPress blogs or websites. Read detailed instructions for this.

NOTE: The “All-in-One WP Migration” plugin is also available for WordPress Multisite, but is not free in this case. However, if you have purchased this plugin for WordPress Multisite, you can still use the instructions in this guide as the plugin works the same way on WordPress and WordPress Multisite.
