HTML Import 2

This plugin will import a directory of files as either pages or posts, according to configurable settings. You may specify the HTML tag containing the content you want to import (e.g. , <div id="content"> or <body>) or the name of a Dreamweaver template region (e.g. “Main Content”).

If importing pages, the directory hierarchy will be preserved. Directories containing the specified file types will be imported as empty parent pages. Directories that do not contain the specified file types will be ignored.

As files are imported, the resulting IDs, permalinks, and titles will be displayed. On completion, the importer will provide a list of Apache redirects that can be used in your .htaccess file to seamlessly transfer visitors from the old file locations to the new WordPress posts or pages.

Options in 2.1:

  • import files into pages or posts any post type
  • import linked image files to the media library
  • select content and title by HTML tag or Dreamweaver template region
  • remove a common phrase (such as the site name) from imported titles
  • upload a single file or scan a directory for files to import
  • specify file extensions to import (e.g. html, htm, php)
  • specify directories to exclude (e.g. images, css)
  • if importing pages (or any hierarchical post type), specify whether your top-level files should become top-level pages or children of an existing page
  • set tags, categories, and custom taxonomies
  • choose status, author, and timestamp
  • use meta descriptions as excerpts
  • clean up imported HTML and strip unwanted tags and attributes
  • Fix internal links

Requires PHP 5 and the php-xml extension (which should be installed and enabled by default).
