Migrating A Website Has Never Been Easier
Easily copy pages of content with images from your old website and create your own WordPress pages and posts.

In this version, the Single Scraper is fully functional and the Multiple Scraper is limited to ten posts at a time.
- Visual interface for selecting content.
