How to Export, Import and Use StreamSera on Multisite

Back up StreamSera, move stations, players and settings to another site, and run StreamSera on a multisite network.

On this page
  1. Export
  2. Import
  3. From the command line
  4. Multisite networks
  5. Clear caches and remove data

Move your whole StreamSera setup to a new site, keep a backup, or copy a station set-up to a sister site.

Export#

  1. Go to StreamSera → Settings → Access & data.
  2. Under Backup & move, click Download next to Export.
The Backup & move settings with the Export Download and Import Choose file buttons

You get one .json file with your stations, players, schedule, playlists and settings. Passwords and API keys are left out by default.

Import#

  1. On the new site, install and activate StreamSera (and StreamSera Pro if you exported Pro data).
  2. Go to StreamSera → Settings → Access & data.
  3. Click Choose file next to Import and select the .json file.
  4. Review the changes. Nothing is saved until you confirm.

Items with the same title are updated; new ones are added.

Tip: Media files such as station logos are not inside the export. Move your Media Library too, or add the logos again.

From the command line#

wp streamsera export streamsera-backup.json
wp streamsera export streamsera-backup.json --include-secrets --force

--include-secrets keeps provider API keys and other credentials. --force replaces an existing file.

Multisite networks#

StreamSera works on WordPress multisite. Activate it per site or for the whole network. Each site has its own stations, players and settings; use export and import to copy a set-up from one site to another.

Clear caches and remove data#

  • Caches → Clear reads song info again from every stream server.
  • Danger zone → Remove all data when the plugin is deleted deletes stations, players, saved skins and settings when you delete the plugin. Deactivating never removes anything.
