 * Hi,
 * I have built a new WP site for a client with new page content etc but they want
   to import their existing blog posts to the new build…is this possible? If so 
   how can I do it?
 * Thanks
    Phil

 * Yes I did, but I want to know what I can delete and what I can’t before I import
   it, as I only want the posts. No pages, comments etc.
 * Also, I assume the import doesn’t replace any existing content?
 * Cheers

 * Just delete everything you don’t need before exporting from their old cms and
   import.
