Split WordPress XML export files into smaller files to import into a new WordPress installations.
ChoppedPress lets you split the WordPress XML export file into smaller files that can be used to import your posts, comments, tags and categories into a new WordPress installation.
Assuming you have already gone throught the process of exporting all of your posts, comments and tags into a file named my-blog-YEAR-MONTH-DATE.xml, you could then split it into several smaller XML files using the following command:
choppedpress *my-blog-YEAR-MONTH-DATE.xml*
This will generate two (this is the default) XML files named out01.xml and out02.xml. The name of the generated files and/or how many files to generate can be specified by using the appropriate flags as show by choppedpress --help.
Usage: choppedpress.py <INFILE> [[<OUTFILE>] [<TAG>] [<NUMBER>]]
ChoppedPress lets you split the WordPress XML export file into smaller files
