 * Hi friends,
    I am in need of creating posts – basically copying post from one
   blog to other blog, where potentially posts might exist with the same ID – by
   writing a piece of code using PHP. I am planning to usethe function wp_insert_post()
   to insert the posts in the database. Is this the right way to do this? and would
   really appreciate if someone can tell me what tables of the database is it going
   to affect? TIA

 * This is what I am trying to do but unfortunately, the piece of code is not working
   for me

 * It gets into the ‘Inserted Post ID: ‘ thing but actually no ID is being assigned
   to the Posts.
    TIA
