If you want to move your DAP site from current hosting to a new hosting, keep in mind that dap tables may not get moved by some of the backup plugins.
The dap tables have a prefix of “dap_”. If you don’t find it in the new database after the move, you may have to export just the dap tables from the old server and import to new.
Step 1: DAP Tables in the WordPress Database
DAP tables are typically located in the same database as your WordPress installation, with a prefix of “dap_“. When migrating your WordPress database, ensure that all DAP tables are included in the transfer.
Step 2: DAP and DAP-WP-LiveLinks Files
Make sure to transfer both the “dap” and “DAP-WP-LiveLinks” files/folders to your new host:
Place the dap folder in the root directory of your site.
Place the DAP-WP-LiveLinks folder in the /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
VERY IMPORTANT: Check Configuration Files
After transferring your files and database, use FTP to access your site and review the contents of the /dap/dap-config.php file.
1. Ensure that the database parameters in dap-config.php match exactly with the values in wp-config.php (for the new host). If the credentials don’t match, DAP will attempt to connect to the database using the old host credentials, which will result in a blank page or an error.
2. Ensure the domain name is correct in /dap/dap-config.php file.
