I have a question for anyone who might know the answer.
I have two websites that I am about to combine with multiple site manager. I don’t have a a ton of channel entries on my second site, but just enough to make me wonder if there is a way to import those entries into the site/database of the install I am migrating the second site to.
Does anyone know if there is simple way to do this. Is there an import/export feature I have overlooked by any chance?

Did you ever get a response or work this out yourself? I have the same question.

I never did figure out how to do it, and I only had maybe 100 articles at the time. The copy paste action nearly killed me but I got it done.
Since that time however, I did hear of a nifty plugin called DataGrab. I **sure** wish I had known about it back in March when I posted this.

If you spring for it and use it, let me know how it goes. I’d love to know if it would have been worth it. 😉

Bummer that your thread got crickets, but thanks for the tip!
One of the sites that’ll be merged already took long hours copy and paste: hundreds of articles dating back to winter 2000!

I hammered out a script that’s making the transition a little easier. It would need to be customized pretty heavily for each specific case, but could at least be a useful starting point for the PHP-inclined!
