• A while after getting two blogs on the same domain, I’ve decided that it would be best if I were to merge them together. I plan to have this as the main blog page and turn all the blog entries from here into individual pages.

    Is there a way more efficient than creating 10+ pages?

    thank you

  • Export one blog and import it into the other. Make sure to do backups first.

    I tried it but it doesn’t quiet do what I wanted it to do… I want to have all the imported blog posts as pages. is there a way to convert blog posts into pages?

    Anyways, the import/export stuff is useful, so thanks!

    I haven’t had the need to try it, but surely there must be a plugin to convert posts and pages, I’ve seen one that converts custom post types.

    This would be separate from your migration though. If you want the posts of just one as pages, I’d convert them first and then migrate them into the other site.

    Thanks for your help. I’ve found the converter rather easily. By the way, if anyone ever wants it, it is here.

    Now here’s another problem I’m having now: due to the theme I am using, I cannot have my pages not show up on that top display. I want the page “Golden Ads” to be an index of all the marketing posts/pages, but the problem is there are so many it would really clutter up the top menu bar. I’ve tried setting the post/page to have a parent, but it doesn’t work.

    My next question is why does this happen and what can I do about it?

    Thank you all for taking the time to answer my question.

    So, you are saying, if you have all the pages you import as top level parent pages they won’t fit in your navigation?

    Doesn’t your theme have dropdown menus so you can make them child pages?

    The problem is, I did set the page as child to “golden ads”. if you look at the blog, the button on the top that says “who are you aiming at?” and you take a look where it links, it links to “golden-ads-add-articles/who-are-you-aiming-at”. that’s pretty much the only thing the parent/child relationship does ??

    (“Who are you aiming at?” post is already the child of Golden Ads(add) Articles)
