Migrating WP-Postviews to new domain

I am not too sure what wp-importing does. But technically you should not worry about migrating WP-PostViews if you did it properly since it is part of the postmeta table.

Hi,

Thanks for responding.

Sorry, I meant WordPress Importer not wp-importing (whatever that is).

I am moving my blog from and to the following domains: wembleycity.blogontheblock.co.uk

to

wembley.blogontheblock.com

As you can see, if you click on a post of the former blog and click on a post on the current the post views have not migrated. The new blog, the post views stick at 1 view.

How did I import the meta? I simply used Tools> export all content from the old blog and then imported the XML file to the new WordPress install.

I should also note, that the old blog was a single site and the new blog is multisite.

Is there anything else I can do to migrate across the views?

Many thanks

Sorry man, I have not moved from a Single Site to a Multi Site before, you probably want to ask this question in a more general forum since this is not exactly plugin related.

The other way you can run is to delete all views meta more than 1.

DELETE FROM wp_postmeta WHERE meta_key='views' AND meta_value = 1;

Hey there,

I should have mentioned I’m moving server, hence the exporting.

OK thanks for the fix on the 1 issue, I’ll keep that as option b.

Cheers.
