Sitecore - moving items from Web to Master (Packages?)

You can use the "Transfer Item to Another Database" feature, which you can find in the "Control Panel" -> "Database" menu.

Just login to the Sitecore desktop, switch to the web database and open the mentioned dialog. It will ask you for the source items/node and a destination... that´s it :)

Please Select Web Database from Desktop Login. follow about step

item> Right Click> Copying> Transfer

then choose drop down web database


I have posted a tool on Sitecore Marketplace which modifies the package. In other words, if you have a package created from web and want to install to master, you can use the tool to change the target database.

Moreover, it is better to use sitecore package than the transfer method. For more information, you may read my post on https://hishaamn.wordpress.com/2016/02/25/sitecore-from-web-to-master/
