How to export WordPress posts, comments, pages and media files ONLY? – CPanel

I have this website – www.spieltimes.com

Now, I’m willing to restart the entire website from scratch, including databases and cPanel.

So, I just want to back up my posts, pages, comments and images. Rest, I don’t think are too relevant.

Is there any way to export/import only the posts, pages, comments and images(including featured ones)?

    WordPress stores all this in an sql database. You could use this same database and develop your app on top, or you could export the data to another database by writing a python script (or any other) that reads data from the database and writes them to another database.
    For images, only the paths are stored in the database.

    See for example https://pypi.org/project/python-sql/

    If you are using WordPress then you should use https://wordpress.org/plugins/all-in-one-wp-migration/ plugin. It is the best plugin for export and import the data.

    I have tested this All-in-One WP migration plugin. Hope it will work you also.

    As you are not from the coding background, so it will be helpful for you. Just install the plugin export/import data.

    There are many ways you can export your WordPress site. Some of the easiest ways are-

    • Use built-in export tools
    • Export site from WordPress.com
    • Use plugins

    Built in Export Tools
    WordPress has their own built in export tools to export your site. To use that tools you need to login to your website and then go to Tools > Export

    Now from the Choose what to export option select all contents.It will export all of your website contents including pages. posts, menus, tags, sidebar, widgets everything you have in your website. It will export your database but this method won’t help you to export your theme file and plugins.

    Click on the Download Export File button and your website databases will be exported in .xml file format.

    From this built in tools you not only export website but also import that database in a new site. For this you need to go to your new site and login to WordPress dashboard. After that go to Tools > Import.

    This is the default import tools for WordPress website. Here you will be able to see a option named WordPress importer. At first you need to install it.

    After installing it you can see the run importer option. To import your website just click on the run importer option.

    It will open up a new window and in the Choose file option you can select your file or drop your file there then click on the Upload file and import button.

    Following this step you can easily export your website database and import it into a new website.
