A space is linked to a category with labels and labels are included in the xml export of spaces. So if you have the same category / subcategory setup on the wiki you are importing the space to it will be located in the same category / subcategory position.
Space layout are not included if you are doing a single space export.
But if you are doing a full wiki export(the whole wiki) both the category / subcategory and the space layout will be included.
You can't do that with the space organize feature. But you can do it manually by adding Space Labels to the space you want to apear in multiple categories.
A space is linked to a category with a space label with the same nameKey as the category. So if you have three categories:
HR (hr)
Sales (sales)
Support (support)
And you want a space to apear in all of them. Go to: the space > Browse > Space Admin > Space labels and add the following labels: hr, sales, support
Please let me know if you have any further questions.
