    My customer uses a Real Estate plugin which he is not happy with. He wants to use an other plugin.
    Question is there any Import/Export plugin that would be able to download all the existing listings and import to the new plugin?

    Maybe… it really depends on the plugins involved.

    The best solution for import / export is from wpallimport.com. It’s not free when dealing with what I assume are custom post types. Check their website.

    Hi Steven, thank you! I will contact them and check it out. I am not a programmer but from my understanding, the problem is, that if 2 different plugins are involved the data in the database will not match.
    Is that correct?
    Have to give my customer some smart explanation why this is not straight forward ??

    It’s highly likely that the plugins stored the data in different ways. The wpallexport plugin will let you export as a CSV file; the wpallimport plugin will let you assign columns from the CSV (or xls) to fields used by the new plugin — probably.

    Were I doing this, I’d set up a sandbox site because I suspect it will take several tries to get it right.
