Import media to online WordPress from local development

When I use WordPress Import in this cases, this is what I do:

  • Export the XML in localhost.

  • Open the exported file in a text editor.

  • Search and replace http://localhost/wp-content/uploads/ for http://example.com/custom-temporary-folder/.

  • Upload the uploads folder via FTP to the custom-temporary-folder.

  • Perform the Import in example.com using the modified XML file.
