Adding a development branch after pushing to master

If you forget to create a development branch before developing, then need to patch master:

1. Create a branch from the last commit
2. Stash any uncommitted changes
3. Reset the master branch to the last tagged release (or whenever)
4. git push -f [email protected]:dotherightthing/reponame.git

If you try to do (4) via SourceTree then Github will complain that "github Updates were rejected because a pushed branch tip is behind its remote"

Extracting a single site from a multisite database

1. This is not possible using UpdraftPlus.
2. Go into SequelPro, locate the tables used by the subsite, Export as SQL
3. Open the SQL file in a text editor
4. Find & Replace the table prefix as necessary, to match the single site's wp-config ($table_prefix)
5. Create a new WordPress site for the standalone single site
6. Go into SequelPro, File > Import: The SQL file
7. Also in SequelPro, under the “option_name” column header, change “wp_user_roles” to “YOUR_PREFIX_user_roles“. This fixes the error "Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page" when you visist /wp-admin (https://www.naijatechzone.com/wp-admin-login-error-sorry-you-are-not-allowed-to-access-this-page/)
8. Use https://interconnectit.com/products/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/ to replace YOUR_OLD_DOMAIN_NAME with YOUR_NEW_DOMAIN_NAME
