I have to transfer my Local host edited WordPress theme to Azure WordPress.
I have edited a WordPress theme on my Local Xampp Server. After that, I got to know that to transfer my theme, I need to install a WordPress plug-in called Duplicator. I have installed and downloaded the generated files. Now, I want to transfer that theme to my newly made Azure Account WordPress
but I'm unable to do so and there is no descriptive video or post that I can find.
I can not find Azure WordPress root directory.

The Export file – This contains all your blog posts, comments, pages and any other content.
Upload Content Via FTP
Login to Azure portal and choose your website from the “Websites” link on the left-hand side, click your site name and the “Dashboard” and you will see a link on the bottom right named “Setup Deployment Credentials”
Enter a username and password in the popup box and these will be your FTP login credentials

As I understand it, the normal process for copying a live wordpress site to local is done through the Wordpress Admin panel, unfortunately this is broken and giving me an error.
How would a person download a wordpress site to local the hard way by copying the files over FTP?
I am not the site owner, and am being brought in as a favor to the site owner, the site has been live for years and suddenly broke (probably the plugins)
Step1 if you have live website FTP or control panel then
open it and create a zip file from Cpanel of the live site WordPress directories . if you have FTP then connect the FTP and select all files and drag it to the right to left into the new folder on the left side
Step 2 when files will move to your system then start your localhost control panel, into ht docs folder move directories of WordPress here which one you recently downloaded from FTP of control panel make sure if you download zip folder from control panel it should be extracted first.
Step 3 open you PHPMyAdmin and then create a database the name whatever you would like to .Then into ht docs WordPress folder open wp-config.php files and change the name of the database , the username will be root and password will be blank.
Step 4 now go to your live site control panel and open PHPMyAdmin, open the corresponding database you can find the database name from the live site wp-config.php file. Now export it to the folder on desktop or you can direct put it to the desktop.
Step 5 extract your live site database and edit it with a text editor something like notpad++. now press ctr+f and then select find and replace tab.Into finding input paste your live site name something wpbeginner.com and into replacing tab paste the localhost directory which one hold the files of WordPress you recently moved something like localhost/yoursite.Hit the replace all tab.
Step 6 Now create a zip file again of the database which one recently open in text editor, go to you PHPMyAdmin localhost and open the database which one you create for the local website. Click on the import tab and then import your live database which one you created the zip from the text editor.
Step 7 on your localhost/yoursite/wp-admin enter the username and password of your live website login and it will open the wp-admin dashboard click to visit site , if it is reidrecting to the live site then goto your localhoset/phpmyadmin select the corresponding database and the select the table wp-option table and change the url from live to you localhost directory
That's it
In my localhost(xampp) wordpress themes are installed. I activate one of them And create user name and password for the wp-admin.
And I backup database and wordpress site and upload it to subdomain(live site). After upload all content will load without CSS style-sheet. And wp-admin also not working. And url as same baseurl twice.
Question is How to upload my wordpress site to my subdomian. Clear me out. Am i missing some thing??
This is pretty much what you are looking for: Moving WordPress
It´s a quite detailed manual how to move WordPress Sites/Blogs from one server to another and moving from localhost to a live server is not much different.
If you are trying to move a complete Wordpress site from one server to another I would recommend using the plugin Duplictor.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/
Really easy to use and does the job excellent!
I do blogging a bit. I found this video tutorial, I have used this one to successfully set up a new subdomain and install Wordpress sometimes ago.
STEPS::
Use cpanel to create the subdomain
Download the latest version of wordpress to your local drive
Upload to subdomain folder on your host
Extract the files, and move them into the subdomain folder
Use cpanel DB Wizard to create a new data base
Make a note of the username, db name and db password
Copy wp-config-sample.php to wp-config.php in the subdomain folder
Edit wp-config.php to add the username, db name and db password
Open the URL "your-subdomain.your-domain.com/wp-admin/install.php"
Fill out the fields on the form and press "install wordpress"
After creating the a subdomain, use WP clone to create and install a backup of my live site into the new subdomain. The clone site allows you to verify updates before deploying them to your public site.
Hopefully the issue has resolved already, but maybe this will be of use to others.
Thanks.
If you are trying to move a complete Wordpress site and is without plugin,
copy all the wordpress files in the htdocs/project-name to the
subdomain folder.
Then export the db from phpmyadmin,open it in an editor
Change all the url of the format 'http://localhost/your-project-name'
to the subdomain link(http://eg.example.com).
Save it and import the sql file to the subdomain's db
Change the database,username,password in wp-config of the subdomain
with subdomain's db details.

Wordpress codex gives you the steps for doing this.
I have built a wordpress site locally. Now I want to host the site globally .
I already have bought a wordpress blog domain (i.e. It changed the site name from xyz.wordpress.com to xyz.org )
Now how I can transfer my local plugins and themes to xyz.org ??
Move all files with wp-admin, wp-content, wp-includes into your host.
Delete wp-config.php file.
Go to site URL EX: example.com and go through typical installation procedure.
Go to your database in your host and delete those 11 tables which have made.
Now you should export the local database and you should open it in any text editor and search and replace your local URL with new one.
Ex: localhost with example.com, then import it to your database of real server.
Now It should work.
To do this you have to go through these steps
1) Make a zip of your wordpress folder and upload to your domain.
2) Export your local database..Open it in any editor which has find and replace.now search for your local server name and replace it with your domain..For eg find this xyz.wordpress.com and replace with xyz.org in entire database
3) upload your database to live make changes in config file your db name ,username,pass
and you are live now
