Here I am, on Christmas break, a PHP newbie but with great FTP software. I've installed Drupal 6.14 at my new hosting service, bit by bit cut and pasted the theme mod details and site confirmation/site information bits. But, I'm dreading doing the back and forth cut & paste method for some 100 pages of blog posts, forum pages, book pages, etc. - many with attachments. Surely there's an easier way -- without destroying or corrupting the good upgrade-ness of Drupal 6.14.

Ideas? Procedures?
Thanks for the help and Merry Christmas! -- david

You can export the content of your d5 site to a csv with views and then import it at the new site with node_import. Another option might be the http://drupal.org/project/tz and http://drupal.org/project/migrate modules.

I'd drop the DB created by the v6 install, transfer over your v5 DB, and then run update.php .. and cross your fingers..
