How to Move Wordpress site from Local to Live ??

We all make website in our local servers generally we find more difficulty in making site Live.

Lets Say a wordpress website on a local machine is ready and to be moved on live server,What will we do ??

First of all take backup of both database and source code in your PC

- Then upload the source code to live server

- Create Database

-Now before importing your database file  make some correction in the file

Find table "wp_options"

in this table find option_name = 'siteurl' and option_name='home'



Edit the values of both the records to your live server links

update the table

That's it.

Now you are half-way from task completion

Database related work is completed now you need to configure the " wp-config.php " File 

With

/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define('DB_NAME', 'YOUR_DB_NAME');

/** MySQL database username */
define('DB_USER', 'YOUR_DB_USER');

/** MySQL database password */
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'YOUR_DB_USER_PASSWORD');

/** MySQL hostname */
define('DB_HOST', 'YOURHOST'); //by default localhost

save the file and All done

Thanks

Cheers
