How do I import content from another blog into my blog?
If you've got a blog in Jive SBS, you can import
content from your other blogs. You'll need to first export content from those blogs into
the Movable Type import format. Some blogging tools offer the
ability for you to do that pretty easily.
Once you've got your exported content, you can import it into your Jive SBS blog using the
following steps:
- In Jive SBS, go to
your blog's Blog Management page.
- Under Blog Shortcuts, click Import.
- At the Exported file box, click Browse and select the file you
exported from your other blog.
- Click Upload File to import.
Note: If you export content from Wordpress, you might need to do a little editing of the
exported content before you import it. When your Wordpress blog posts include HTML tags,
the file exported from Wordpress omits tags needed to tell Jive SBS that the HTML is
there. You'll need to enclose the content in <body> tags before importing. Here's
an example:
Before
This is my <b>BOLD</b> HTML example.
After
<body>This is my <b>BOLD</b> HTML example.</body>
