What is StackMS.php?
During the migration process from your previous provider to 20i, you might come across a file named "StackMS.php" within your website's directory which wasn't present in your previous hosting environment. This file plays a crucial role in our Migration Center specifically designed for WordPress migrations. Its purpose is to locate your website's database details, facilitating the smooth transition of your database to our servers.
Here's how it works:
- Initialization: The Migration Center adds the "StackMS.php" file to your site directory, typically the root directory.
- Execution: Upon execution, the script searches for your WP-config.php file.
- Database Details Retrieval: It then scans the WP-config.php file to extract the lines containing your current database details.
- Database Access: Utilizing this information, the script accesses your current hosting database.
- Backup and Migration: The database is backed up, and the backup is securely transferred to 20i's servers for migration.
