In Options for export, you should enter the titles of the settings sets stored in the ‘wp_options’ table. If there will be more than one option, separate them with a comma. The ‘wp_options’ table can be found in your website’s database. To enter it, go to your website’s hosting and open the PhpMyAdmin app (or another tool that is used for database management on your hosting). If you have problems finding the database – check for the instructions on your hosting’s website or contact its tech support.

In Custom tables for export bar type in the names of the custom tables from the database, you want to export. Enter the names without prefixes and use a comma to separate them. Those tables can also be found via your website’s hosting. Enter the database management tool (like PhpMyAdmin or OSPanel) and take the table names from the plugins folder in domains > localhost > croco-troubleshoot > wp-content > plugins.
