Migrating from WordPress to Statamic has never been easier.** The brand new, Official Importer helps you import content and users from XML, CSV, and WordPress' Gutenberg.

Here are a couple of its niceties:

  • Allows importing entries, taxonomy terms, and users
  • Supports all CSV and XML files
  • Intuituive UI for mapping fields
  • Multi-Site ready
  • Special handling of Gutenberg content (WordPress)
  • Hooks for customizing the import process

With the most recent release (5.36.0), our Blade integration reaches a whole new level with a suite of Blade Components. This was another huge effort by the talented Mr. Koster. Head over to the docs to learn more about it.

Oh and all of our documentation has been updated to include both Antlers and Blade code examples. Huge thanks to John for working on this as well!
