Split WordPress XML export files into smaller files to import into a new WordPress installations.

Project description

Introduction

ChoppedPress lets you split the WordPress XML export file into smaller files that can be used to import your posts, comments, tags and categories into a new WordPress installation.

Examples

Assuming you have already gone throught the process of exporting all of your posts, comments and tags into a file named my-blog-YEAR-MONTH-DATE.xml, you could then split it into several smaller XML files using the following command:

choppedpress my-exported-wordpress.xml

This will generate two (this is the default) XML files named out01.xml and out02.xml. The name of the generated files and/or how many files to generate can be specified by using the appropriate flags as show by choppedpress –help.

Usage: choppedpress <INFILE> [[<OUTFILE>] [<TAG>] [<NUMBER>]]
