    It would probably be easiest to export the three via Tools -> Export in their Dashboards, then import via Tools -> Import -> WordPress in the Dashboard of the new blog.

    Yes,
    But how can I manage the changes of category structure

    For example for the post1 :
    initial website : https://www.site1.com/cat1/post1
    after the export/import : https://www.singlesite.com/fr/site1/cat1/post1

    That won’t be possible. I’d recommend making a new category, fr-cat1, for example.

    ok, but where create the new category ?
    In the new website ?
    But Ithe posts and pages of a website in the new site don’t have to merge before I can attribute the good categories for each content of each websites.

    To make things easier, create the new category at Posts -> Categories on the old site, then bulk-edit the posts to switch their categories.

    Once that’s done, do the export.

    Yes, but if I change the structure of the awtual website, I lose the Google SEO.
    I want to maintain existing sites in a first time.
    And then make 301 redirect

    And if I change the author for the old sites.
    When I will import the content, the author will different.

    Can I change the category struture (adding a prent category for example) for a specific author ?

    Then you’ll have to make the change after the move.

    I don’t recall saying you should change the author.

    Sure, but you’d have to do it manually. Create the new parent category, edit the post, switch the category.
