Hi,

I have a setup in one ezpublish installation with ~40 directories each containing a news folder with multiple articles. What needs to happen is to move these articles from this install to another one setup on another server. The directories and folders have been replicated already and the articles just need to be moved in. Could anyone suggest an overview of script to do this?

thanks,
Kedar

Hello,

If you are talking about news and articles created in the administration interface, you can use the ez packages module to export your content:

Setup tab > packages > Create a new package > Content object export > Follow the instructions...

Download the file and reimport by the package module in your new install.

Thank you Jean-Luc, that method works perfectly for what I need to achieve. I just tested it and it does the job.
