• I would like to transfer an Instant-WP site to use with XAMPP, I’ve tried already but sadly it doesn’t seem to work…

    Could you give me any help on this matter?

    I need to be able to share the site with someone else so we can both edit things on our ends. Thank you.

  • Quick answer (search the Codex / IWP / XAMPP for details):

    – start IWP, select MySQL Admin, login and export the wordpress database
    – exit/shutdown IWP
    – copy the contents of C:\InstantWP_4.3\iwpserver\htdocs\wordpress to C:\XAMPP\htdocs\wordpress
    – start XAMPP (Apache and MySQL), log in to phpMyAdmin (click “Admin…” in the MySQL row of the XAMPP control panel), create a new database and import the SQL file exported from IWP
    – edit wp-config.php in the XAMPP location with the XAMPP DB info and save
