  I need to copy a post from another wordpress account, it’s a photography display, so I need the picture size and order to be copied exactly. I am not keeping the writing part of the post though. Is there a way I can do this?

  If I copy and paste it from her blog the photos show up but not in the same order and sizes.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Do you have the right to use the photos in question? Presumably she owns the copyright, not you.

  Yes I asked her permission,
  She is contributer to our website.

  Would you have a suggestion? It wouldn’t be the export post option right?

  It’s probably easiest if she goes to Edit that post, copies all the code from the Text editor, and then either emails it to you or posts it herself in your blog. Unless they’re the same size and theme on both blogs, things will end up slightly different.

  @indoful-That’s fine as long as that other person has inserted their images one by one and there are proper image links.

  However, if that person has used the WP Gallery feature as described here to embed their photos on their site, most likely copying and pasting the code from the Text Editor won’t result in the Gallery appearing on your site. The reason is that images used in a Gallery feature have to be uploaded to the WPcom site they will display on.
