Move to Subsite

Description

Many older WP sites used categories and/or pages to organize what were essentially subsites without proper access control and other site-specific goodies like themes, widgets, and plugins.

This plugin lets you move that content to another site on your WordPress network with a single click, with seamless redirects.

This is beta software. Back stuff up first. (I shouldn’t have to tell you that, right?)

Extract the zip file and just drop the contents in the wp-content/plugins/ directory of your WordPress installation and then activate the Plugin from Plugins page.

Why not just use WP’s built-in export/import functions?

Because they won’t 1) remove the content on the originating site, 2) handle redirects, or 3) do it so damn fast. And I’m into re-inventing the wheel.

What about my comments, metadata, and categories/tags?

What about them? Oh, yeah, I bring that stuff over. It’s all good.
