I have a development site which uses a different theme to the live site as well as a few extra plugins. I would like to make the dev site live whilst keeping all of the posts and previous plugins belonging to the live site. I do also have additional taxonomies, categories and custom posts types in the dev site. Not sure if this complicates matters. Thanks

On the Live website, Go to WordPress Dashboard and select Tools / Export Check Posts, Pages and Media.
WordPress will export an XML with the data.
On the Production website, Go to WordPress Dashboard and select Tools / Import / WordPress. Run the installer and import XML data form Live website.
