backup old articles to keep seo ???

[eulandapricillia]

Hello, I have a blog built with wordpress, but now I want to create a new website with a completely new interface using wordpress but still keep the articles of the old website (because I have configured SEO articles on old articles on the old website). Is this possible? That is, I want to keep only the articles from the old website and copy them to the new website with a different interface from the old website. Can anyone suggest me how to do it? Thanks.

1) if you want to keep the old articles in old site, and also copy the old article and post it on the new site: update the article canonical in the old site to point to the new site
2) if you only want to move the old articles to the new site and don't care about the old site: do 301 redirect.

Can you guide me to copy? I have nearly 2000 articles on the old website.

You need to do some research on 301 vs canonical URL.
After you learn the differences, you will know which method to use.

And after that, you can ask chatgpt to write you a simple Wordpress script for handling this, it should be very easy.
