## Skildring

You are building a new web or mobile application and want to keep the people who
already have an account on your WordPress site. NEWTIV Migrate exports, in one file:

 * **users**: username, email, name, registration date, roles, and optionally their**
   password hashes**, profile fields, WooCommerce addresses and any other user meta
   you name;
 * **content**: posts, pages, products and custom post types, with categories, tags,
   custom fields and author;
 * **comments** (without IP addresses) and the **media library** list with file 
   addresses.

Because the password hashes are included, your application can check a user’s usual
password exactly like WordPress does (phpass for older accounts, bcrypt for WordPress
6.8 and later), then store it in its own format at the first sign-in. Nobody has
to reset their password.

**Security first**

 * The file is always encrypted with a passphrase you choose: key derived with Argon2id,
   content encrypted with XChaCha20-Poly1305 (libsodium secretstream). Without the
   passphrase the file cannot be read.
 * The file is streamed to your browser and never stored on the server.
 * Only administrators can export, and they must type their account password again.
   Five wrong passwords lock the export for 15 minutes.
 * The last 20 exports are listed: who, when, how many records, with or without 
   password hashes.
 * Privacy: the export log stores, for each export, the date, the administrator’s
   username and IP address. It is deleted when the plugin is uninstalled.
 * Password hashes are optional: untick them for a content-only export.

**Large sites**: users and content are read in batches of 200. From the command 
line: `wp newtiv-migrate export site.ntvm` (see `wp help newtiv-migrate export`).

This plugin does not connect to any external service.

### File format

 1. First line: `NTVMIG1`.
 2. Second line: a JSON header with the key derivation parameters (`kdf.alg` = argon2id13,`
    kdf.opslimit`, `kdf.memlimit`, `kdf.salt` in base64) and the secretstream header(`
    header`, base64).
 3. Then frames: a 4-byte big-endian length followed by the ciphertext of one secretstream
    message. The last frame has the FINAL tag; a file without it is incomplete.

Key: `crypto_pwhash(32, passphrase, salt, opslimit, memlimit, ARGON2ID13)`. Decrypted,
the frames form NDJSON, one record per line, each with a `type`: `meta`, `user`,`
term`, `post`, `media`, `comment`, then `end` with the counts, to check that nothing
is missing.

Any libsodium binding can read it: PyNaCl (Python), libsodium-wrappers (Node.js),
ext-sodium (PHP).

User records carry `pass` and `pass_format` (`wp-bcrypt`, `phpass`, `bcrypt`, `md5`,`
argon2`). Meta values are exported exactly as stored in WordPress (arrays stay PHP-
serialized).

## Installasjon

 1. Upload the plugin and activate it.
 2. Go to **Tools  NEWTIV Migrate**.
 3. Choose what to export, choose a passphrase (or generate one), type your password,
    download.
 4. Keep the passphrase somewhere safe, separately from the file.

## Vanlege spm.

### Can someone use the file to sign in to my site?

No. A password hash cannot be used to sign in; it can only be used to check a password
someone types. And the file itself cannot be read without the passphrase.

### I lost the passphrase.

The file cannot be opened. Make a new export.

### My host says the sodium extension is missing.

The plugin needs PHP’s sodium extension (included with PHP since 7.2, enabled by
almost every host). Without it, the export button stays disabled.
