# Exporting/Transferring CSV

 * Hi, how are you?
 * I’m working for a client who failed to tell me that they needed to move all the
   job applications moved over from their old site to their new site before I transferred
   everything. Therefore, I transferred their WordPress site after backing up their
   old site.
 * To recover the job applications, I installed their old site on a test server 
   and then tried to export the applications via CSV. However, clicking the “export”
   button does nothing. I’ve tried updating the plugin and WordPress, but that didn’t
   solve the problem either.
 * Is there a way to fix this? Alternatively, is there another way to transfer the
   files or info from the old database to the new database?
 * Thanks in advance for your help!

 * Tools > Export should allow you to export applications as they are just a custom
   post type.

 * Thanks Mike! I’m just seeing Jobs under the list of post types to export, not
   Applications. And when I tried that, I just saw a list of the jobs that were 
   posted. Am I missing something?

 * Can you confirm that the old site has WPJM Applications installed and activated?
   I’m seeing it in my list.
