    This may sound like an odd question. I have a CMS using a MySQL database that I currently use. I’d like to dump this CMS and use WordPress but I need to get the articles out of the CMS MySQL database and into a WordPress one.

    Therfore what are the field names I need to make this work.

    Does this CMS have the ability to export to RSS or something? It might be easier to use one of the wordpress import scripts, rss being one of the formats it can import.

    I recommend you study mysql database used in wordpress yourself. What you’re asking isn’t trivial, unless you have a good understanding of mysql and the wordpress system. I think there are at least 3 table that all interact for posts, and there could be more (that’s just off the top of my head).
