I have exported all my content to WordPress XML file via WordPress>Tools>Export as I needed to edit 300 posts at a time. Now, my concern is how to re import the file to override the default one?
By re-importing the file via WordPress Tools it does only import new posts, so it’s not adapted to that particular case without breaking my site/database. I need to find a way to re import the file.
Any suggestion is appreciated.
What do you need to edit and why can’t you edit in the WP editor?
Can you use Search RegEx? It’s a plugin to search and replace with grep and regular expressions through content.
If you need to develop a regex search string to find certain content, check https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/regex
If you really need to do this, then you’ll have to delete the existing posts completely – ie ‘Bin’ them, and then Empty the bin/trash. You’ll then be able to import the WXR file via Tools | Import.
