I know this is probably a ridiculous question, I don’t really even fully understand what STP is yet, although I can assume by the name. My problem is that I’m trying to move some subsites in a multisite to individual sites, because I can’t migrate them as a multisite without paying an absurdly high price. It also just comes from a misunderstanding I had when I started out, I didn’t know I could crate multiple different WordPress installations, I thought all sites I created had to be through one. Thus, I used multisite. Really dumb, but I was just clueless.
​
The problem I’m having now is following this guide: [https://pressable.com/knowledgebase/extracting-a-single-site-from-a-multisite/])
​
From someone who is, as you can tell, very green to web development, this tutorial is very difficult to understand, but I’ve gotten to step 4 where I need to edit the wp-config file. Thing is, I’m being told I need to have the site domain, some SSH stuff, etc. when these sites aren’t even live. I’m just trying to make them into individual sites on localhost.
​
I remember at some point I had gotten into the wp-config file without the use SFTP/STP, just file explorer, and added the multisite line in the file, can I just do that same thing to comment it out? Or will there be some issues that will arise because of that?
Also, one of the steps is to change the ‘wp\_user’ and ‘wp\_usermeta’ tables in phpmyadmin to the respective ID of the site I’m trying to extract, but when I do so, I’m no longer able to log onto the WP dashboard because my admin account is no longer associated with it. What should I do here?
​
This whole process is just so confusing to me, I’m just trying to learn so I’m sorry if any of the things I’ve explained doesn’t make sense, I’m happy to elaborate. Cheers.
