comments, and attachments. WXR files do not include site configuration

(options) or the attachment files themselves.

**OPTIONS**

		to current working directory.

	[--stdout]

		Output the whole XML using standard output (incompatible with --dir=)

	[--skip_comments]

		Don't include comments in the WXR export file.

	[--max_file_size=]

		A single export file should have this many megabytes. -1 for unlimited.

		---

		default: 15

		---

	[--filename_format=]

		Use a custom format for export filenames. Defaults to '{site}.wordpress.{date}.{n}.xml'.

	[--include_once=]

		Include specified export section only in the first export file. Valid options

		are categories, tags, nav_menu_items, custom_taxonomies_terms. Separate multiple

		sections with a comma. Defaults to none.

	[--allow_orphan_terms]

		Export orphaned terms with `parent=0`, instead of throwing an exception.

**FILTERS**

	[--start_date=]

		Export only posts published after this date, in format YYYY-MM-DD.

	[--end_date=]

		Export only posts published before this date, in format YYYY-MM-DD.

	[--post_type=]

		Export only posts with this post_type. Separate multiple post types with a

		comma.

	[--post_type__not_in=]

		Export all post types except those identified. Separate multiple post types

		with a comma. Defaults to none.

	[--post__in=]

		Export all posts specified as a comma-separated or space-separated list of IDs.

		Post's attachments won't be exported unless --with_attachments is specified.

	[--with_attachments]

		Force including attachments in case --post__in has been specified.

	[--start_id=]

		Export only posts with IDs greater than or equal to this post ID.

	[--max_num_posts=]

		Export no more than  posts (excluding attachments).

	[--author=]

		Export only posts by this author. Can be either user login or user ID.

	[--category=]

		Export only posts in this category.

	[--post_status=]

		Export only posts with this status.
