Thao Pham-AaltonenCannot believe this function isn't available, its cost me half a days work so far, and now I'll have to recreate the page from scratch. This is.... SOO Frustrating...

aowen42 It is absurd that this isn't available in the ui. The easiest workaround I've found is to open both sites in SP Designer (custom scripting must be enabled), copy the page and paste it in the target site site pages library. It retains all the original links, image references etc though so you may want to edit a few things once moved - and double check permissions as it appears to inherit the target site's library permissions.
This is so easy to do but why Msft hasn't made this a ui option is beyond me.
