WordPress › WordPress Importer

Import posts, pages, comments, custom fields, categories, tags and more from a WordPress export file.

The importer has a couple of filters to allow you to completely enable/block certain features:

import_allow_create_users: return false if you only want to allow mapping to existing users
import_allow_fetch_attachments: return false if you do not wish to allow importing and downloading of attachments
import_attachment_size_limit: return an integer value for the maximum file size in bytes to save (default is 0, which is unlimited)

There are also a few actions available to hook into:

import_start: occurs after the export file has been uploaded and author import settings have been chosen
import_end: called after the last output from the importer

Requires: 3.0 or higher
Compatible up to: 3.4
