## Instructions for using WP-CLI to migrate a WordPress DB
##### Export current (local) DB
```TXT
wp db export db.sql
```
##### Copy file from local to server (may need to amend server path if not in html folder)
The example below is for local to remote, simply swap these 2 around for remote to local
```TXT
scp -r db.sql www-data@IP_ADDRESS:/var/www/html
```
##### SSH onto box (should be same connection details as above)
```TXT
ssh www-data@IP_ADDRESS
```
##### Run the WP CLI DB importer
```TXT
wp db import db.sql
```
##### Use --dry-run first to check that changes will be OK in DB
```TXT
wp search-replace old-site-url.co.uk new-site-url.co.uk --dry-run
wp search-replace old-site-url.co.uk new-site-url.co.uk
```
##### Delete imported DB file
```TXT
rm db.sql
```
