Moving multiple WordPress sites to Multisite
-
Hi there,
I need to some help about setting up and moving several singular wordpress sites to multisite.
Ive been using WordPress for just about a month to set up a website for my friends tour company. I figured I’d set up a wordpress site for each business area his tour company provides services for (i.e. scuba diving, snorkeling, fishing, private charters). So I have done just that, not really thinking too much about the network page, figuring i’d hard code a simple index file or I could somehow put another WordPress installation into the root directory. Its through investigating this after setting up the websites I discovered WordPress Multisite!
I have setup multisite in my dev environment, im comfortable with getting it to work. So the issue I have now is these 7 sites I’ve just finished need to be ported over to multisite!
Whats the protocol for the transfer…i’d really prefer not to have to activate and configure 36 different plugins & 10 widgets for 7 different sites as well as uploading all the media content again!
The content I believe is just a case of exporting the tables and changing the table name to correspond with the multisite table. Will plugins and widgets behave in the same way?
