Paul-Michael Agapow	Friday 16 July 2004 5:59:17 am Transferring my old site (maybe 200 pages of plain old HTML, with a smattering of PHP and SSIs) to an ezPublish site promises to be an ardous task. Logically, the way to do a lot of it would be to import it directly into the database (something I did once with great sucess with a PHPNuke site). Any experience, advice or pointers? Secondly, this may work well for articles, but for binary files and images there may not be such an easy way. Ideas about that? Thanks p

Also, a while back I posted some information regarding an import script. Check out http://www.ez.no/community/forum/developer/importing_update_entry_if_it_already_exists for more information It is possible to attach images as well.
