[Plugin: Quotes Collection] Quick fix for exporting/importing (backup, multisite, etc.)

First, absolutely phenomenal plugin! I’ve searched for months for a simple website to do what this plugin does, and the only one that comes close has a censor (BOOO!). This plugin is exactly what I’ve wanted for years–a quick, easy database to store my favorite quotes.

This may have been covered before, but I’ve found an easy solution for the export/import feature that’s promised. For those who know how to view their WordPress database in MySQL (there’s a plugin for this), all one needs to do is “dump” their ‘quotes-collection’ table to an XML file. Presto, easy-to-read backup of all your quotes.

If you’re trying to import after a fresh installation, or import across a multisite network, you can append or overwrite this XML file to the quotes-collection table for whatever blog needs it.

I’m sure it wouldn’t take much work to write a quick plugin to do all this from the settings menu, and I might get on it myself one of these days. In any case, this is one plugin that I will never deactivate!
