 * Sorry, can’t edit the old post.
 * Well, it wasn’t hard actually… just needed to map the new ids for the `new_prefix_users`
   table with the old ones. In case someone else run into it, it’s solved by a simple
   sql statement (make sure your are in the right database):
 *     ```
       UPDATE table_name SET post_author = REPLACE (
       post_author,
       'old-id',
       'new-id');
       ```
   
 * where `id` is a numeric value.

 * You are right :D, I ran into some other issues like breaking user roles. That’s
   because the roles are serialized inside the `wp_options` table. So _at least_
   the values of that table has to be changed too.[1]
 * Since plugins doesn’t have a way to call or write inside the database, it could
   change between plugins, but I honestly doesn’t care a lot about that. In the 
   end, most issues about their configuration could be caused by that, using `wp_`
   instead `new_prefix` or viceversa.
 * Until now, I have migrated two websites, and I’ve been able to keep the content
   and the users (even keeping their old passwords).
 * The only problem I’m running now, it’s that I don’t know how to keep the “ownership”
   of the posts, but I guess I need a little bit of research, if you have any clue
   I’ll be glad to know 🙂

 * In my experience the export/import tool works, but when it’s not too much. It’s
   quite common to get php timeouts, problems moving the images, etc.
 * Anyway, I should point that I partially solved the problem:
 * It was a bad idea rename `wp_` to `new_2_` because there are some values that
   are supposed to be called `wp_`! Like the ones inside the `postmeta` table, specifically
   under the `meta_key` column. After that magically every attachment works :).
 * TL; DR → just rename the table names, not everyhing inside as I did.

 * I’m sorry, I updated the plugin, but I’m getting the same error (I did a forced
   reload to make sure I wasn’t using and I’m running into the same issue:
 * White screen and no log. The thing that I found kind of curious it’s that when
   I first installed the plugin the local folder path was some kind of random alpha
   numeric value, that was the same argument in the “backup now” button: `site.com/?
   backup=id`. No matter if I change the local path, that “uri” doesn’t change.
 * EDIT:
 * I removed and re-installed the plugin: Now I have a different local-folder `.../
   backup-id` and the manual backup still doesn’t work (changing the local fold 
   doesn’t change the uri from the button either).

 * Cool, thanks for cleaning it up, I just wanted to create the page, so someone
   with more experience could see it.
 * I was wondering why with your configuration I can see the new sites localhost/
   site-1, localhost/site-2, but not the main one? (it was working before creating
   the network), it shows a blank page without throwing any error. Any clues where
   to look?

 * Thanks for this great post. It could be a good idea if you add it to github or
   something like that :P.
 * Now multisite it’s working, except for the “main site”… For example: I’m developing
   local so to access the install I’m using [http://wp/](http://wp/).
 * I created a new site on the network, so I can navigate without problems in [http://wp/test](http://wp/test),
   but if I try to enter [http://wp](http://wp), I just see a blank page (access
   and error logs doesn’t show anything special). I still can enter the admin dashboard
   through [http://wp/wp-admin](http://wp/wp-admin).
 * I don’t understand why this is happening or where should I look to find the problem.
   Can you help me?

 * I don’t think so, read there:
 * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Customizing_the_Read_More#Designing_the_More_Tag](http://codex.wordpress.org/Customizing_the_Read_More#Designing_the_More_Tag)
 * Specially this line:
 * >  If you want to change the words from more…. to something else, just type in
   > the new words into the tag:
   > `<?php the_content('Read on...'); ?>`
 * So, you need to modify the `the_content()` on your theme (probably is in the 
   index.php, below something like this:
 * `while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>`
 * to `the_content('Read more...')`.

 * [15 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-put-a-search-box-in-my-header/#post-1648399)
 * You just need to add this to your header.php where you want to appear:
 * `<?php get_search_form(); ?>`
 * Unless you have a searchform.php file, wordpress is going to render this:
 *     ```
       <form role="search" method="get" id="searchform" action="http://example.com/">
           <div><label class="screen-reader-text" for="s">Search for:</label>
               <input type="text" value="" name="s" id="s" />
               <input type="submit" id="searchsubmit" value="Search" />
           </div>
       </form>
       ```
   
 * Btw, you should look the [Codex](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_search_form).

 * If you check the markup you’ll see:
 *     ```
       <div class="sidebar">
       blabla
       <li class="linkcat" id="linkcat-2"><h2>Training Links</h2>
       	<ul class="xoxo blogroll">
       <li><a target="_blank" title="Bike Training tips for the beginner to advanced" href="http://seasidetri.com">Bike Training</a></li>
   
       	</ul>
       </li>
       ```
   
 * So, you need to add this to your style.css:
 *     ```
       .sidebar li {
            list-style-type: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * …or find a way to change the markup because that `<li>` is kind of lost there.
 * That should solve it :). If you’re interested in know what was happening, keep
   reading…
 * For some reason, the rules from the line 596 of your style.css were applying 
   to that li:
 *     ```
       .entry ul, li {
       font-family:Arial,Verdana;
       font-size:14px;
       line-height:20px;
       padding-top:8px;
       text-align:justify;
       }
       ```
   
 * Just an advice, use firebug (or a tool alike) to check the markup and css, it’s
   way easier and you can know which rules are applying to a specified element.

 * I wasn’t supposed to access my client wordpress installation to add a plugin.
   The idea was make “everything work” with just installing the theme.

   to achieve. I’ll give it a try though.
