I did another “export” from my original LocalWP site tonight. It did the same thing as before. It keeps ignoring recent changes and exports everything from end of day April 19th and nothing new after that date and time. Some of the things missing in both exports:
-
My custom Header made with Elementskit is gone, and the theme’s header is back. Over a week ago, I had deactivated some template plugins I was looking through for website ideas, and when done, deactivated them. I accidently deactivated Elementskit too. I had reactivated Elementskit again like the next day when I noticed my custom header gone. So, every time I do an export and import to LocalWP now, that plugin is deactivated and my header is not there.
-
I uploaded new images for my Home page. The latest export still did not do any new images. The Missing Images are dated April 19th-April 28th. Now, not only are they not in the media library, but my Home page does not have a “missing image” tag, it has the older images.

This is the site that I imported it to. The teal bird was my placeholder images. So, I’m pointing out that the image containers don’t have broken image links because it can’t find the newer image in the media library. It’s just using the birds that were there before I uploaded new images.
Parrotsforsale > Media Library > this row has images dated from April 19th-April 28th
LocalWP > Import > Parrotsforsale-staging > Media Library > Missing Images dated April 19th-April 28th.
This is the first one that it starts missing dated April 19th:
This is the last one that it exports properly dated April 16th:

I cloned some pages using “Yoast Duplicate Post” around April 19th as well, and those duplicate pages no longer exist.
-
Maps API was configured setup on April 17th → early April 18th.

- I was working on WP > Pages > on 4/19 as you see in this image (I searched on the word main to limit the results and you can see some changes on 4/19 made it and some did not).
- I want to mention something that happened on April 19th, which seems to be the cutoff date for new data. I work with AI as I work on my website. I have been confirming my dates with it. AI said, I ran my LocalWP UPDATE to Version 10.0.0+6907 on April 19th at 6pm. After the update, I continued working on the site that night without problems. I shutdown my computer over night and the LocalWP would not start the next day. The problem was that I had multiple ports using the same number in the sites.json file. There is a resolved ticket on here for that issue I’ll link to it below. So, not sure if that is related, but it’s a fact that I did my LocalWP update that date and it is the date and time that new data is no longer getting exported from my original site.

Let me know if there is anything else I can check or provide for you. Thanks a bunch for any help on this matter.
