WordPress features the ability to migrate pages and posts without copying other content. This feature is particularly beneficial when joining two WordPress websites or manually transferring a website into WP Engine.

The built-in import/export WordPress function lets you effortlessly sync new posts and pages without importing the database. While the export will include all pages and bars, it won’t create duplicate content. Instead, only new pages or posts will be added.

Exporting the right content is the first step in the process. This is possible using tools built directly into WordPress. Make sure you perform the export on the source website you wish to copy the pages and posts of.

1. Login to the wp-admin on the original site
2. Click to reveal Tools.
3. Click Export
