    I know that there is an HTML to wordpress importer. It is here https://wordpress.org/plugins/import-html-pages/. I am looking for an importer that will also import PHP pages into wordpress.

    There really isn't any such thing as a "php" page - the .php tells the server what to do, but the output is still html.

    The problem you are going to have is that the importer won't know what parts of the page are headers and footers etc and what is the content to import. If you have the content in a database you may be better off taking a copy of the database, tweaking it so that it looks like something there is an importer for and running that.

    I know you did. But you were talking about something to import php pages so I was addressing that.
