Are Custom field values rightly imported

  • Hi,

    My WP setup has custom fields on posts and pages, which is basically the entire WP editor that allows me to add custom content to the pages and posts.

    The issue I’ve been facing seems to be a little more weird. When I export the data and then import it to another WP install, it so happens that the meta value for that meta field (created by the custom WP editor) is all blank. Basically, the custom field value is not importing at all. I can see it in the export xml though.

    My concern is whether this is an intended behavior (which ofcourse should not be the case) or is this a bug with the way custom content is being stored in the meta (it stores it in a serialized array) or is it a bug with the importer?

    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance ??
