I need to merge two Drupal installations with the shared usertables. I wonder how much will be the cost of merging two Drupal sites with the same users, but different blogs, audios and images? Node table of a second site shows 2,427 rows, which I need to pour onto the first Drupal installations with the same used nids, i.e. imported nodes have to be added in continuation of node count of the base website. Tried to do this with Migrate module (http://drupal.org/node/966220), but confused with its complexity.

In fact, we have multisite Drupal installation with several subdomains and commmon usertables and would like to merge all of them into one database, however if at least two of them will be successfully merged and detailed instructions provided we will merge the rest by ourselves.

Could anyone with expertise on Migrate module (or similar) contact me and give cost estimation of this kind of task, please.

There is no possibility, in a normal installation for site A and site B like yours (I presume) that when you import node from site B to site A the imported nodes mantains the same NID.

A developer can ensure that the nodes are imported from A to B have the same user who had to B, but obviously with different UID. The same NID is impossibile or nearly.

ziobudda, thank you for your response. Please read above: imported nodes have to be added in continuation of node count of the base website. Nids should not be the same, new nids should be created and they should continue nid count of the base website.
