    Hi!
    I’m new to modx and I have question regarding modx import files.
    Does anyone know how can I import my old web site into MODx manager?
    This site is located on my hard disk.
    Do I just have to copy folder in which my site is located somewhere to wamp\www\... ?
    Or is it maybe possible to import these files through MODx manager?

    I’ve copied all files into /core/import/ folder and than tried to import them through modx manager ’Import HTML’ option,
    but nothing happened... I’ve waited and waited but saving process never finished.
    When I typed :’http://localhost/modx/core/import/homedir/public_html/’ into my browser it showed this message:
    « MODx Parse Error »
    MODx encountered the following error while attempting to parse the requested resource:
    « PHP Parse Error »
