Getting started

Installation

Install the plugin from its release zip, check the requirements, and add the WordPress Importer for imports.

From the release zip

  1. Download the latest release: eizport.zip. The URL always points to the newest version.
  2. In WordPress, go to Plugins → Add Plugin → Upload Plugin, choose the file and click Install Now.
  3. Activate it. Tools → Export now opens the new Export screen.

With WP-CLI

wp plugin install https://github.com/eizport/eizport/releases/latest/download/eizport.zip --activate

Try it first

Open the live demo in WordPress Playground: a throwaway site in your browser with the plugin and sample pages.

To import

Importing needs the WordPress Importer. On Tools → Import, click Install Now under WordPress, then Run Importer. The plugin’s links lead there while the importer isn’t installed. Exporting works without it.

Requirements in detail

Requirement Why
WordPress 7.0+ The Export and Settings screens are built with @wordpress/build and booted by core’s @wordpress/boot.
PHP 7.4+ The plugin’s minimum.
zlib .wxrz bundles are gzipped tar archives.
ZipArchive (or PclZip) .zip bundles and Playground .zip files. Core’s PclZip is the fallback.
Abilities API Part of WordPress 6.9+; the screens run the plugin’s abilities.

Uninstalling

Deleting the plugin removes wp-content/uploads/eizport/ (temporary copies and unfinished imports), its settings and the saved export defaults (the site’s and every user’s).
