How to Back Up Wordpress Blogs without MySQL & PHPmyadmin
When I originally created an article on Dollars Blog about moving wordpress blogs a while back, it was about using PHPmyadmin and MySQL. While you still need to know how to create databases and install things when moving hosts, the need for using MySQL is now less with wordpress. Moving wordpress data around is now a piece of cake with the new import export feature introduced in Wordpress versions 2.1+.
Keep in mind there is some disadvantages to this convenience, as it doesn’t store everything. There is also some things it does do that the old SQL way of doing things doesn’t do. You can read more about Import/Export in one of my previous articles here. I really like the XML export backup feature and its one reason why it makes wordpress a great software for beginners to websites too.
