 * Hello,
    I’ve started a site with custom CMS with MySQL database which has 30,000
   + article now. I want to use now WP and want to import that contents also. How
   can I convert that database to WP post database format. Can any one help me about
   how to do that?
 * Thanks

 * Thanks esmi,
    I’ve checked that link. But my site is in custom CMS, which is 
   not in list of that link. So, can’t I import that content directly?
