Loosing global settings on moving wordpress

    Hi,

    when I export my local developed blog and push it to my server I import the complete database.

    But yo-poll looses all information on “Yop Poll Options” I have to re-enter every setting because no radio button is selected.

    Even deactivating the plugin and reactivating it doesn’t help.

    Once I enter all settings again, they are saved and everything is fine. So where does yo-poll save these settings if I want to move my blog?

    Hi spankmaster79,

    Please give us more details on how you make the export/import? Do you use the Vote IDs?

    Hey spankmaster79,

    The poll’s general settings are stored in wo_options as option_name = yop_poll_options

    Best wishes,

    Thx for the hint to yop_poll_options.

    I move the complete wordpress code to the server. Import the data in the database via a dump. Then execute a move_wordpress.sql which changes all the wordpress hard written domain names to the correct ones.

    The problem is, that the domain is saved in the options as serialized String from an Array/Object, which makes the count for the string incorrect.

    I’ve added the following lines to my move_wordpress.sql and it works now

    UPDATE wp_options SET option_value =
    replace(option_value, ‘s:84:”http://older-differentlength-domain/wp-content/themes/twentytwelve/images/loader.gif’, ‘s::66″http://new-domain/wp-content/themes/twentytwelve/images/loader.gif’);

    UPDATE wp_options SET option_value =
    replace(option_value, ‘s:53:”http://older-differentlength-domain/yop-poll-archive/’, ‘s:35:”http://new-domain/yop-poll-archive/’);

    UPDATE wp_options SET option_value =
    replace(option_value, ‘s:42:”yop-poll@older-differentlength-domain’, ‘s:42:”yop-poll@new-domain’);
