Exporting News

I see there is an "Export News" item in Home >> Content Managemen >> Manage News.
I haven't seen any item relating to exporting.
I also performed a search in the Adminzone -- which came up with no useful results.
If there's no inbuilt option for this, is there any suggested way to export news items from Composr site to another?

I think you did a typo. Was the first "Export News" in your post meant to be "Import News"?
Anyway, Composr generates RSS feeds without needing to explicitly export them.
E.g. https://compo.sr/backend.php?type=RSS2&mode=news&days=3000&max=10000&
Become a fan of Composr on Facebook or add me as a friend. Add me on on Mastodon. Follow me on Minds (where I am most active). Support me on Patreon
- If not, please let us know how we can do better (please try and propose any bigger ideas in such a way that they are fundable and scalable).
- If so, please let others know about Composr whenever you see the opportunity or support me on Patreon.
- If my reply is too Vulcan or expressed too much in business-strategy terms, and not particularly personal, I apologise. As a company & project maintainer, time is very limited to me, so usually when I write a reply I try and make it generic advice to all readers. I'm also naturally a joined-up thinker, so I always express my thoughts in combined business and technical terms. I recognise not everyone likes that, don't let my Vulcan-thinking stop you enjoying Composr on fun personal projects.
- If my response can inspire a community tutorial, that's a great way of giving back to the project as a user.

I want to grab some news article from one Composr site into a newly installed one.
I will try importing from the RSS feeds of the old site.
