I’m trying to migrate a couple of WordPress sites from Azure (using Project Nami) to another host where I intend to use standard WordPress and MySQL. There are a number of media library files already uploaded to Azure Blob storage and I would prefer to keep those where they are.
I’ve performed the following steps to transfer things over:
1. Exported “All content” from the source WordPress site to an XML file.
2. Installed a fresh copy of WordPress on the new site and set up a database.
3. Installed and configured the Microsoft Azure Storage for WordPress plugin.
4. On the target site I ran the import functionality and got errors like this:
Failed to import Media “StandUpDesk”
I made sure the “Download and import file attachments” checkbox was unchecked on import because I want them all to stay on Azure.
Posts and comments are imported without any issue. Photos embedded within posts show up fine because they continue to refer to the working Azure URLs. What are not showing up right are featured photos and entries in the media library itself.
Still, I’m able to get almost everything I want, except a properly configured media library pointing to the Blobs on Azure.
Is this type of operation supported by the Microsoft Azure Storage for WordPress plugin?
