    I am ready to promote my pages from DEV to PROD.  I found a like https://wpdatatables.com/faqmd/transfer-plugin-tables-localhost-stage-site-production/ that suggest the use of the Duplicator plugin, but more details.  Would it be possible to augment this link with some instructions or a video clip?

    Hi Eric

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    Other than cloning the site, another option would be to copy all database tables (wp_wpdatatable_#) along with tables wp_wpdatatables, wp_wpdatacharts, wp_wpdatatables_rows and wp_wpdatatables_columns. Then, in wp_options table, you would also need to export the following option_names:

    • wdtPreventDeletingTables
    • wdtUseSeparateCon
    • wdtSeparateCon
    • wdtTimepickerRange
    • wdtTimeFormat
    • wdtTabletWidth
    • wdtTablesPerPage
    • wdtSumFunctionsLabel
    • wdtRenderFilter
    • wdtRenderCharts
    • wdtIncludeBootstrap
    • wdtIncludeBootstrapBackEnd
    • wdtPreventDeletingTables
    • wdtParseShortcodes
    • wdtNumbersAlign
    • wdtBorderRemoval
    • wdtBorderRemovalHeader
    • wdtNumberFormat
    • wdtMobileWidth
    • wdtMinifiedJs
    • wdtMinFunctionsLabel
    • wdtMaxFunctionsLabel
    • wdtLeftOffset
    • wdtTopOffset
    • wdtInterfaceLanguage
    • wdtGeneratedTablesCount
    • wdtFontColorSettings
    • wdtDecimalPlaces
    • wdtCSVDelimiter
    • wdtDateFormat
    • wdtCustomJs
    • wdtCustomCss
    • wdtBaseSkin
    • wdtAvgFunctionsLabel
    • wdtInstallDate
    • wdtRatingDiv
    • wdtMDNewsDiv
    • wdtTempFutureDate

    It is rather cumbersome to do all this, but unfortunately at the moment it's the only way. Also, for tables linked to an existing data source, you would need to change the file path, because at the moment the file path depends on the domain, so if you change the domain, the URL to the file will also have to be changed.

    Our developers are working on creating an "Export" function, so this will be much simpler in the future.
