Import from Kinsta gives blank wordpress install

Hi @Maxwell you’re welcome.
We, unfortunately, don’t have a fix for this currently. I have been able to reproduce it on an install of my own, so I’m working with our dev team to try to narrow the cause down.

I see the same empty DB being created, even though all site files are present.

That will hopefully help speed things up as I can provide any detailed info they may need and continue investigating on my end as well.

One workaround comes to mind that should take care of things.
Although extra manual steps:
-Export a copy of your database from MyKinsta using PHPMyAdmin or mysqldump
-Manually importing it to the site in DevKinsta using the database manager.
-Then, after importing, run a quick SQL query to update the database values for the domain, so you won’t be redirected to the live site.

I’ve tried and this did work for me, taking about 10 minutes to complete.
If you want to give it a try I can provide the query to that can be modified with your own domain(s) and table prefix.

Hey bro, thanks for the feedback. I would love to have the query yes, that would speed things up. We starting using some extra stage but eventually I will use devkinsta for sure while you guys correct this! Thanks mate!
