When selecting one post type in the WordPress export screen, by default the linked media (attachments) are not included.
This plugin adds an “Export media with selected content” option. When checked, the plugin tries to find featured images and included media in the post_content, adding them to the export file.

Export media with selected content (by DKZR)

This plugin is a must for content migration. This should be the default behavior in WP.

Works perfectly

Massive time saver, no need for premium plugins.  Thanks.

WP Attachments

Nice and useful plugin. The only downside is that it lacks a setting to show image thumbnails instead of a generic image icon in the edit metabox.

Show thumbnails instead of icons in metabox

A powerful solution to manage and display your WordPress media attachments in posts and pages.
