I’m wondering (since I’m having so much trouble getting this to work), whether there would be another way to develop locally multiple wordpress sites that would later be migrated to single wordpress installations?
I know I can simply make separate WP installs on my PC but I want to save on space rather than duplicating so many installs.

I’ve read in another post the following suggestion; however, I don’t quite understand it:
“Using multisite to develop then export to a single install is a bad idea. For one multisite behaves different than a single install and you want your dev to be as close to the production as possible.
It’s also a pain to manually export the right db tables then import them into a new database.
For developing locally I only use 2 or three WP installs. You’re mainly working on theme files so just create a new theme for each project and you can even use one dev database and change the table prefix in wp-config.php so so you don’t have to create a new database each time.“

If anyone can explain me how can I achieve this, I’d appreciate it!

Thanks a lot!!!
