 * Hi Jeff,
 * I tried exporting the wp_PO_plugins table from my dev site and importing it to
   me live site afterwards, in order to copy the plugin filters I thoroughly set
   up on the dev site to the live one. Unfortunately, the plugin filters don’t appear
   in the admin menu then for some reason. It shall have something to do with the
   hash values in the tables, right? Is there a(nother) way to backup and/or transfer
   all set plugin filters?
 * Thanks for your reply in advance!

 * Plugin Filters are custom posts. You’ll need to export the posts and import them
   into your new site.

 * Is it possible and correct that all urls have to be entered again then for the
   new site and that the “Also affect children” check box is always unchecked?

 * Actually thats not going to work either. When you import the posts into a new
   site the post ids will change and they will no longer relate to the PO_plugins
   table. There doesn’t appear to be an easy way to transfer the posts to a new 
   site.

 * No I can’t find one either. Will have to do it manually then. Thanks for your
   quick reply anyway!
