The Most Trusted WordPress Migration & Backup Plugin Since 2013
All-in-One WP Migration is the gold standard for WordPress site migration and backup, used by over 60 million websites worldwide – from small blogs to Fortune 500 companies and government agencies. Whether you need to migrate WordPress to a new host, create a full site backup, or restore a previous backup, our plugin offers enterprise-grade reliability with beginner-friendly simplicity.
Free vs. paid, plainly: The free plugin backs up and exports sites of any size. To restore for free, download your backup file and import it on the Import screen. Your hosting company decides how large a file you can upload, so a very large backup may not go through that way. The paid Unlimited Extension adds one-click Restore from the Backups page and uploads that get around your host’s file-size restrictions. That is how we fund the free plugin.
Why Choose All-in-One WP Migration?
The opening of the plugin's own description. The full text, installation notes and changelog are on its WordPress.org page.
Yes, with one thing to know. Download your backup, then go to All-in-One WP Migration > Import and upload it. Your hosting company decides how large a file you can upload – the Import screen shows that number, and we have no say in it. If your backup is bigger than that, your host can usually help, or you can follow our guide to uploading larger backups.
Install All-in-One WP Migration on your current site and click Export. The plugin creates a single .wpress file containing your entire WordPress site – database, media, themes, and plugins. Then install a fresh copy of WordPress on your new host, install the plugin there as well, and use the Import feature to upload the .wpress file.
To create a backup, go to All-in-One WP Migration > Export and choose your backup destination – local download or cloud storage. The plugin creates a complete backup of your entire WordPress site in a single .wpress file. To restore a backup, go to All-in-One WP Migration > Import and upload or select your .wpress backup file. The plugin will restore your database, themes, plugins, and media files automatically.
Yes. The Multisite Extension allows you to migrate an entire WordPress multisite network as a single .wpress file. You can also extract a single subsite – when you migrate a subsite, the plugin automatically converts table prefixes and reorganizes media file paths. Multisite migrations require special handling because the network uses shared database tables for users and per-site tables with unique prefixes.
The upload limit is set by your hosting company, not by the plugin (see “Is restoring free?” above). If you are comfortable editing server configuration, you can raise the PHP upload limit by adding php_value upload_max_filesize 512M and php_value post_max_size 512M to your .htaccess file, or set client_max_body_size 512m for Nginx servers.
You can migrate a WooCommerce store the same way you migrate any WordPress site – export on your current host and import on the new one. However, after you migrate a WooCommerce store, you should immediately verify that payment gateway API keys are configured correctly, update any webhook URLs to reference your new domain, and run a small real transaction to confirm checkout works end-to-end.
