Website Importer can import entire websites into WordPress provided they contain a specialized index file. The index file can either be an index output by Flare Madcap, or an XML file that is specifically defined for this importer.

The Website Importer will relink internal links, upload and relink media files, and apply templates and categories to the page. The import can be from either a website that is local to the WordPress installation, or uploaded as a zip file. If it is uploaded as a zip file and is a Flare Madcap import, the importer will find the relevant Flare Madcap index. If it is uploaded as a zip file and the is using an XML index, the importer requires that the index file be named index.xml and located at the root of the zip file.
