    Hey guys, my old site became unuseful and trashy during the years, therefore I have created a neone. So I am moving all basic things from my old one to the new one. The proble is that I can not move shipping correctly. I have tried various plugins but no luck. And now I have exported file via tools and during importing I have got this type of message: Invalid post type shipping_package. Anyone knows how to fix this?

    Self-declared URL: foris.no
    Jetpack: Unknown
    WP.com: Unknown

    Hi there! The default import/export tool generally doesn’t support custom post types, which is what shipping_package is.

    You may want to migrate the entire database using a plugin like All In One WP Migration. It has options to export the database only and would copy and overwrite the entire database on import, so you may need to clean up additional data after from the old site you are exporting from.

    Alternatively, you can manually export/import just the Posts with the shipping_package post type from the database via phpMyAdmin or MySQL via SSH. This is a bit more advanced and if not comfortable with MySQL, you may want to hire a developer to do it for you.
