    Hi guys

    I have been using wordpress mu for a while and the site is pretty successful site.

    Although no one has been using the MU functions and due to the limitations wordpress MU has..i would like to know if its possible to transfer it to just the regular wordpress and still keep the content and database?

    Is this possible?

    Regards
    Stef

    You could export the data from each blog, install a separate wp installation for each one, then import the data back in.

    But, just remember, the "mu functions" are as much for you, the site admin, as they are for your users. Do you want to go to the trouble of manually setting up a blog for each new user, and upgrading wp and the various plugins and themes for each blog every time there is an upgrade?

    Even a small amount of blogs like five, means five times the work.
