Exporting and importing entries to create a mirror (Wordpress)

This is something I have started to do regularly to save myself unnecessary frustration. However, importing is not enabled in Blogger, so choose another blog hosting service that will allow you to do so.

Steps for Wordpress MU users:

  1. Login to your site admin page.

  2. Go to Manage>Export.

  3. Export your blog entries. Comments and pages will also be exported with them.

  4. Save the exported file.

  5. Go to another Wordpress MU blog, login >Manage>Import. Select the file you have exported earlier.


You can access my mirror on wordpress.com here. Wordpress.com has more presentation layouts and CSS functionalities, but Edublogs is friendlier for Edublogging and the prompt support it provides, although it is less stable because of the overwhelming server loads.
