[wp-hackers] WP Development & Production Sites

[Vid Luther]

plugins and their settings would need to be exported to production? i 
know some themes have the ability to export and import options, but not 
sure about plugins.
perhaps they're creating custom post types in dev, and then they just 
need the new post type in production?

I'm running into similar issues as well.
