Hi,

All day I been working hard to try to figure out a way to migrate my data from site A to site B.
I have a website (site A), on which messages are posted (content type Message, with a couple of fields). What I want to do now it to move all the content from the one content type, over to a new site, site B.
Does anyone know of a module for D7 that actually does this?

I have tried over 10 modules today, but none of them seem to be really doing what they promise. Can anyone help?

since you don't say which modules you've tried it's impossible to recommend something else-- but maybe the feeds or node_export modules.

Hi,

what I have tried

*Backup and migrate: doesn't allow to export one type of content
*Node export: doesn't seem to allow to export multiple data as one, and the import functions doesn't seem to work.
*Feeds: didn't get it to work, either parsing errors or it doesn't do anything.
*Migrate: can't get it to work
*Bundle copy
*Features

maybe some other modules as well...

I can't speak to the others, but I've used the d7 version of node_export and it worked. It's still in dev, but if the content types match exactly on both sides it worked for me.

the main issue with node export seems that I can't export and import multiple nodes at once, and that the creation date of the node isn't saved.
