In Hostmaster 2.0 I can migrate individual sites to a new platform, or I can migrate all of the sites from one platform to a new platform. I would like the ability to select an arbitrary list of sites from one platform, to migrate to the new platform. This could be accomplished by adding 'Migrate' to the list of options in the 'Site Operations' dropdown, or by adding checkboxes next to the list of sites in the platform -> migrate dialog.
Thanks.

I've looked at this a long time ago and only remember that there was something that made it not that easy to do.

But +1 for this.

New features will have to be implemented in the 7.x-3.x dev branch.

New duplicate in #2786975: Allow migrating a subset of sites

Dream would be that I could use VBO, but an easy way to achieve something similar is it just show a textfield on the migrate platform form, offering to limit the number of sites queued for migration.

Oh, thanks for linking me to this issue!

Yeah, the whole migration thing is tricky to get into a VBO.

Maybe we could just add checkboxes to the existing form?

Then people could pick the ones they want.
We could have a 'check/uncheck all' link to make it easier to deselect and pick the ones you want.

While working on #3022736: Allow selecting a db in the migrate sites task I was reminded about this issue and I drafted some pseudo code. Maybe it helps getting started someday.
