WP Scraper Plugin

Migrating A Website Has Never Been Easier

Easily copy pages of content with images from your old website and create your own WordPress pages and posts.

Most of the web migration software available is hard to use and needs advanced knowledge. WP Scraper makes it simple with an easy to use visual interface on your WordPress site.

• Visual interface for selecting content.
• No need to know CSS selectors.
• Images are imported to your media library.
• Simply add your url and start grabbing content.
• Automatically populate the featured image, title, tags, and categories.
• Save as draft, post, or page.
• Strip unwanted css, iframes, and/or videos from content
• Remove links from the content.
• Post to a selected category.

Two Pro Versions Available

The WP Scraper Pro version lets you scrape 100’s of pages at a time with the Multiple Scrape, or on a set schedule with the Auto Scraper. The Pro version is also packed with extra features to remove ads during import, filter content, and even an upgraded url selection. Please visit http://www.wpscraper.com/ for more information.

The WP Live Scraper provides a shortcode that can be used in any post or page and will automatically refresh scraped content with a recurring cron schedule. This can be used for events, ratings, reviews, scores, prices and so much more! Please visit http://www.wplivescraper.com/ for more information.
