I'm just about to migrate my Pi-hole to a new VM. I tried the teleporter but it only seems to export adlists etc not custom DNS settings etc.
Is there a way to export all settings, local DNS records etc.
This will be fixed in v5.1

Even our extensive beta phase didn't reveal a few issues with Teleporter. They will be fixed in this PR. Changes:
- Add export & import for missing tables: `group`, `client` + the group linking tables.
- Rename Teleporter Ex-/Import to Backup and Restore to highlight that they are meant for being done on one and the same device rather than for transporting stuff between different installations (even when this is and will stay possible).
- Add pihole-FTL.conf ans custom.list (Local DNS Records) to Teleporter Backup
- Add import for Local DNS Records
- Improve arrangement of check boxes in the Teleporter Import box
- Log number of imported group assignments
To backup Local DNS Records, just copy custom.list

The current (V5.0) version of Pi-hole does not export the custom list or /etc/pihole/pihole-FTL.conf . This will be changed in the next release and these files will be exported and available for import via the teleporter.
Manually copy any files you want that are not included in your teleporter export, and save them for import to the new install.
