How to import/export Calendar (Pro) setting

[Hylke]

Hi,

I read https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/how-to-exportimport-settings-from-dev-to-prod/
but it doesn’t give me the right answer. Settings like, Y M D, or categories are not handled by Standard WordPress Import/Export. I think like import, this plugin should have an export function.

Thanks for your reply in advance,
greetings, FO

Hi Hylke,

Thanks for reaching out!

I did a quick search for a plugin that might allow you to export/import plugin settings quickly, and while I did find one for the Customizer, I didn’t see any that are currently updated for plugin settings.

Since our plugin options are stored in the wp_options table, you can export that table and then import it into your new site (or if you are migrating the entire database already, these settings should come along with it). If you only want to grab the options from our plugin, you could use SQL:

SELECT * FROM wp_options WHERE option_name = ‘tribe_events_calendar_options’;

I agree an easier method to migrate settings would be a great feature! If you have a minute, could you please post this idea in our Feature Ideas forum? This is what we use to gauge user interest in new features and help plan for future development.

I’m sorry I don’t have a better answer for you here, but please let me know if you have any questions!

Thanks,

Jennifer
