Marbak Taxonomy & Posts Transfer

Marbak Taxonomy & Posts Transfer is a focused tool for moving structured content between WordPress sites. It lets you export selected taxonomy terms together with their related posts and import them into another site while preserving relationships and metadata.

This tool is ideal for structured editorial systems where content is organized using ACF-powered taxonomies and custom fields.

What this plugin does

• Export selected taxonomy terms
• Export posts assigned to those terms
• Export term meta (including ACF fields)
• Export post meta (including ACF fields)
• Export featured image URLs
• Import terms by slug
• Import posts as Draft
• Assign taxonomies to imported posts
• Import featured images from URLs
• Handle large imports in batches (20 posts per run)

Important notes

• This plugin is designed for ACF-based setups.
• The destination site must have the same taxonomy registered before import.
• If ACF fields (e.g. term images or custom fields) are included in the export, the same field groups should exist on the target site.
• Imported posts are always created as Draft.
• Existing posts with the same slug are skipped.
• Re-import the same file to continue large imports in batches.

Use Cases

Move a specific content segment between sites

Export a taxonomy (e.g. Authors, Projects, Case Studies) together with all related posts and import it into another WordPress site without migrating the entire database.

Reuse structured content across projects

Quickly transfer predefined content structures and their data between client projects built with ACF.

Split a large site into smaller ones

Extract a specific taxonomy and its content when restructuring or separating a website into multiple installations.

Staging to production (partial content)

Move only selected content from a staging environment to a live site without affecting the rest of the database.

Agency and developer workflows

Ideal for developers and agencies working with ACF-based content systems who need a reliable way to move structured content.

What this plugin is not

• Not a full site migration tool
• Not a database replacement tool
• Does not automatically create taxonomies or ACF structures
