WP-Migrate allows users to enter database information separate from the current site/blog database, and migrate the current information over. It enables you to select what (if any) information to move over, and/or update the URL throughout the database to a new domain while keeping the seralized meta information intact.
NOTICE: This is a very developer-centric plugin and should not be used by anyone that is not comfortable working with database settings and entering connection information.
This is an early version and it is recommended that you run a test-deployment before migrating any information to a production database. For example: create a new database named "mysite2", running the migration, and switching the wp-config.php file on your production server to point to that database. This way you can switch back quickly if there was an issue.
Plugin requires the json_encode function to be available on your server.
