When selecting one post type in the WordPress export screen, by default the linked media (attachments) are not included.<\/p>\n\n

This plugin adds an \"Export media with selected content\" option. When checked, the plugin tries to find featured images and included media in the post_content, adding them to the export file.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Upload the plugin files to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/export-media-with-content<\/code> directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.<\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
    \n

    Images seem to be missing in the export file<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    This plugin hooks into the WordPress export routine and tries<\/em> to find images related to the post (page, etc.). It does so by looking for \"attached\" (uploaded to) media and it searches the body of the post (the post_content) for image files.<\/p>\n\n

    It's possible that themes or plugins use different ways of referencing media to your post. This plugin will not find those.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    The images are imported into the new site but eg. my galleries are broken<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    In eg. the Gutenberg gallery block, when you select an image size (for the gallery) the images with that size are 'hard-coded' in the html.<\/p>\n\n

    The WordPress import routine downloads the original image of the 'export site' and re-creates the configured image sizes. When your configured image sizes differ, you might end up with broken galleries.<\/p>\n\n

    So make sure both sites have the same image sizes configured. See the Media settings in both sites and check if themes or plugins use add_image_size()<\/code> reference<\/a>.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Can I (have somebody) extend this plugin?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Yes! The plugin features two filter hooks:\n* export_query<\/code>\n* export_query_media_ids<\/code><\/p>\n\n

    Please browse the code to see what they do, I guess export_query_media_ids<\/code> is easiest to use as it requires you to just add more attachment IDs to an array.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
