Are there any suggestions or commercial modules as to how to import/export blog articles from older version DNN 4.0 in one site to DNN 6.0 in another site?

I'm creating a new site with a new domain and have about 7 years of postings that I'd like to move to the new site.

Thanks in advance for any help on this.

Brian

Brian, did you ever learn how to do this? I'm on approximately the same version of DNN on my sites, but do want to "export"/"Import" my blogs to a different site.

Thanks, John

Haven't tried it yet, but basically upgrade to newest version of the blog, make sure there is no limit set on the number of articles for the RSS syndication, export this to a file and use one of the Wordpress RSS importing plugins to import the blog articles. Then clean up blog posts.

I first need to set up another Wordpress site before I test this and haven't got around to it yet. Seems straight forward enough on the surface.

OK, you're using RSS to import from DNN to an RSS-based importing agent to go to Wordpress - right?

I'm simply stuck trying to find an import/export functionality from the current blog module in DNN. I don't see such an option in any memu I've come across yet. Hopefully as I'm importing/exporting to same version of DNN & blog, no data manipulation will be required!

Thanks Brian.

Brian, are you trying to install WP plugin to your DNN install, or just migrating your blog away from DNN into WP? From the question I understand you want to export blog from one DNN install and import it into another DNN instance.

That's what I am trying to figure out, how to export/import all my blogs from one DNN instance to another. I can't find any import/export functionality in the action menu of the blog module.

Thanks,

Val
