INTRODUCTION
|
|
------------
|
|
This module allows users to export nodes and then import it into another
|
|
Drupal installation, or on the same site.
|
|
|
|
This module allows user to export/import nodes if they have the 'export nodes'
|
|
or 'export own nodes' permission, have node access to view the node and create
|
|
the node type, and the node type is not omitted in node export's settings. The
|
|
module does not check access to the filter formats used by the node's fields,
|
|
please keep this in mind when assigning permissions to user roles.

Note: this module was originally built upon code from the node_clone module
|
|
maintained by Peter Wolanin (http://drupal.org/user/49851) at
|
|
http://drupal.org/project/node_clone which was derived from code posted by
|
|
Steve Ringwood (http://drupal.org/user/12856) at
|
|
http://drupal.org/node/73381#comment-137714
|
|
Features integration, relations, and UUID initially developed by Tushar Mahajan
|
|
(http://drupal.org/user/398572).
|
|
Significant improvements, file handling, and extra functionality pioneered by
|
|
James Andres (http://drupal.org/user/33827).

INSTALLATION
|
|
------------
|
|
1. Copy node_export folder to modules directory (usually sites/all/modules).
|
|
2. At admin/build/modules enable the Node export module in the Node export
|
|
package.
|
|
3. Enable any other modules in the Node export package that tickle your fancy.
|
|
|

CONFIGURATION
|
|
-------------
|
|
1. Enable permissions at admin/user/permissions.
|
|
Security Warning: Users with the permission "use PHP to import nodes"
|
|
will be able to change nodes as they see fit before an import, as well as
|
|
being able to execute PHP scripts on the server. It is advisable not to
|
|
give this permission to a typical node author, only the administrator or
|
|
developer should use this feature. You may even like to turn this module
|
|
off when it is no longer required.
|
|
This module does not check access to the filter formats used by the node's
|
|
fields, please keep this in mind when assigning permissions to user roles.
|
|
2. Configure module at admin/settings/node_export.
|
|
|
|
|
|
USAGE
|
|
-----
|
|
1. To export nodes, either:
|
|
a) Use the 'Node export' tab on a node page.
|
|
b) Use the Find content page (admin/content) to filter the nodes you
|
|
wish to export and then choose 'Node export' under the 'Update options'.
|
|
c) Use Drush: http://drupal.org/project/drush
|
|
d) Create a Feature (see tips below) http://drupal.org/project/features
|
|
e) Create a View of nodes and use the Views Bulk Operations (VBO) module
|
|
http://drupal.org/project/views_bulk_operations
|
|
|
|
2. To import nodes that were exported with Node export, either:
|
|
a) Use the form at 'Node export: import' under 'Add content'
|
|
(node/add/node_export).
|
|
b) Use Drush: http://drupal.org/project/drush
|
|
c) Using your created Feature.
|
|
d) For advanced imports if you are familiar with the Feeds module, enable
|
|
Node export feeds module to use with the Feeds import interface
|
|
http://drupal.org/project/feeds

NODE EXPORT FEATURES TIPS
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
Regarding the Node export features module which integrates with the Features
|
|
module, any nodes to be used with this must have a UUID (universally unique
|
|
ID). To export older nodes that don't have UUID make sure you have selected
|
|
the content type and click on 'create missings uuids' from
|
|
'admin/settings/uuid' under the fieldset 'Synchronize'. Then you should be
|
|
able to see more nodes under the feature component, If you don't see the node
|
|
export component, that means no nodes has been configured with UUID. |
