ChoppedPress

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>]]

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.

Options:

--version	show program's version number and exit
-h, --help	show this help message and exit
-i <FILE>, --infile=<FILE>
	The XML file generated by WordPress
-o <FILE>, --outfile=<FILE>
	The name for the smaller XML files. [default: out]
-t TAG, --tag=TAG
	The XML tag that represents your data. [default: /rss/channel/item]
-n NUMBER, --number=NUMBER
	How many new files should be generated. [default: 2]
