Hello,

Have successful imported 175 records into my eStore. Also, used your excellent tutorial at on using phpmyadmin... which I used to add items in eStore to categories.

What I would like to do now is import some (175) pages into WP based on the Description field I have already imported into eStore... It would be a WP page with extended Description information for those wanting more details... but also for me as SEO pages.

My question. Can I import these pages into WP using phpmyadmin? I only ask because I don't want to try and have the site get mucked up. Also, if yes do you have any idea which table I should download/upload?

Note: I would like to bring them in as drafts, assign categories to them and have the dates set to random. (I can create random date in Excell but not sure how to set as draft and assign them to categories)

Any information about doing this would be most apprecateid.

Thanks.

Regards
Jeff

Yes you can import pages into WordPress using PHPMyAdmin too. Essentially, you are directly manipulating the data in the database table so there is no reason for it to not work. Don't worry about messing up because you can always take a backup of the table that you are going to manipulate so if something goes wrong you can always restore it. I am pretty sure the WP post and page content is stored in the "wp_posts" and "wp_postmeta" table. This document might help you:
