After you've finished setting up your custom WordPress site, you'll want to deploy it to a production server. It's easy to set up a local development server for WordPress, and it makes theme or plugin development a lot easier. However, eventually you'll need to push your site to a live server so it's accessible from the public web.

In this Coffee Break Course, Envato Tuts+ instructor Rachel McCollin will teach you how to migrate your WordPress site from a development version to live hosting. You'll see how to create a new install of WordPress, how to move your files (including themes and plugins), and how to migrate the database. You'll also learn how to modify your database as it is being migrated, in order to update the site URL.
