My WP blog has developed two different subjects. I want to split them into two folders on the server, one having a new folder name and the other keeping the current folder name. I expect to delete the blog entries on each one so the articles correspond to its folder.

So, one site will reflect the original intent of the blog (a strict Q&A approach), and the second site will reflect more meditative content.

What's the best way to do this? Maybe create a WP site folder from scratch and copy/paste an article over, and delete it on the other site, then move to the next article? There will be hundreds of articles to go through.

(If you can think of a better tag, I would appreciate it.)

    in wordpress, posts are not stored in directories but are dynamically generated from data. then you can organise posts in associating them to 2 different categories. or if the two subjects are for two different publics, you can create 2 separate sites. edit your question to add more details about the result you want to obtain.

  • "2 separate sites" sounds like the second option I mentioned. Copy the pertinent files over to the second site and delete them from the first. Commented Jul 23 at 12:40

    a way of doing that is to duplicate the site. and then on each site, you just need to delete off-topic posts. Commented Jul 23 at 13:48
  • Should I be able to export the current site to my hard drive, delete all entries I don't want for a new site in that exported file, create a new WP site on the same server, and upload/import the edited export? (Assume I don't have any media files linked up.) Commented Jul 23 at 14:00
