Staging to Production – Excluding Users

I’ve reviewed half of the migration tools including WP ALL-in-One which I had high hopes on but none of these tools are able to exclude the user table from being copied over. So what about manipulating the password on the migrated data instead?

This question came up here about 8 months ago in this forum about people wanting to not include the user table as part of the migration, likely to tighten security of their website.

But if you give us an option as part of data migration to select which users to generate new passwords for. I don’t like having extra user accounts but at least this way the staging users will not be able to access the website, and this is what a lot of us are trying to achieve… a way to safeguard our site.
