How to copy Groups from one NING site to another ?

[Lars Hendriksen]

I'm about to multiply a NING site to several others, and have 35 groups which I need to have on all my sites.

I get grayhaired before dawn, if I have to do it manually :) - isn't there a way to copy (export/import) groups ? And maybe events (import *.ical files ?) and members ?

I've searched around with no result - hope someone has the golden answer.

Kindly

Lars

Hey, Lars. I don't think this is actually possible. Wish I had a better answer for you.

Bugger! That's bad news. You should consider a better interface to NING from other systems - a good way of getting people to convert to NING. Thx for your quick answer anyway :-)

You know, I think it would be really awesome to have a way to auto-add some popular groups that many of us traditionally add (similar to the options in some calendar programs) where we added, say - the 50 US states, the major metropolitan areas in a state (for example, if I was making an "Oklahoma" network, I may wish to include Oklahoma City, Tulsa, and Stillwater... For Texas maybe Houston, Ft. Worth and Wichita Falls, etc), or the Providences in Canada, etc. Do you think this is a suggestion that might be worth looking into?
