How to upload first understrap site to live server

[gurds91]

I have built my first site using understrap, using the understrap child theme, wanted to upload it to live server. My hosting company is hostinger, I tried using all in one migration plugin but didn't work.

What is the simplest way to migrate understrap site to live server? Thanks.

I managed to figure it out

what I did is to zip up the wordpress files folder for my site, I copied and pasted into public_html in cpanel and unzipped in there.

I then went onto MySQL database, exported it. Then I created new database in my hosting live server account, I went into wp config in public_html and changed the details to reflect database name, username, password.

Then I imported the sql database that I had previously exported into my new sql database that I created.

This was my first site created using understrap, www.webdevgurdeep.com

I learnt a lot from Ian and Brian and the other developers. Hopefully I can keep learning more from you guys moving forward through this github discussion , I would have loved to be part of understrap academy but they are not enrolling in that at the moment.
