Importing image field how?

  • So i’m using wp importer to import all my custom post with acf fields. Everyting works except the image. Been searching for an answer but no luck.

    Also i found an answer on the forum where the image uploaded could be set as featured image but no luck with that either.

    Thanks!

  • Hi @jimmy

    I guess the problem is that the image field uses the image ID to reference the image data.

    When importing the values into the site, the ID (that the image field has) won’t match the correct image in the new database.

    This issue should also be consistent with any post object / relatinoship fields.

    Not sure what the solution is for this one unfortunately.
    Perhaps some reading into previous threads / googel may reveal some answers?

    Thanks

  • Same issue here.

    I have tons of posts that uses ACF’s image field…
    Migrating method that exporting the xml from test server to production server perform no good for image field, I had no solution but headache.

    So I better off using plugin that migrates entire db.
    All in on WP migration did good for me though.
