WeeblyからWordPressに乗り換えたいですか？
はい、開発者を雇ったり、コードの書き方を知らなくても、Weebly のコンテンツをすべて WordPress に移行することは可能です。すべて無料の Weebly から WordPress へのインポーターツールをビルトインしました。
この投稿では、WeeblyからWordPressへの適切な移行方法（ステップバイステップ）をご紹介します。
なぜWeeblyからWordPressへ移行するのか？
WeeblyではなくWordPressを選ぶ理由は、柔軟性とコントロールにあります。
WordPressは、「何でもできる」タイプのウェブプラットフォームのようなものだ。オープンソースであるため、開発者の巨大なコミュニティがその機能を定数強化している。
何千ものテーマやプラグインを利用できるため、サイトの拡張やカスタマイズも思いのままです。シンプルなブログから複雑なEコマースサイトまで、WordPressならすべて対応できます。
Weeblyはユーザーフレンドリーで、最小限の手間で素早くサイトを作りたい場合に最適です。しかし、カスタマイザー機能には制限があり、WordPressが提供するすべてのSEO機能はありません。
私たちの経験から言うと、ほとんどの人はブログを始めたばかりの頃は、最適なブログプラットフォームを選びません。むしろ、Weeblyのようなホスティングサービスを選ぶ方が多いでしょう。
残念なことに、WordPressは時々悪い評判があり、単に真実ではない多くの神話があります。
さらに詳しくブログを書くようになり、SEOやマネタイズ、カスタマイザーなどについて学ぶと、間違った選択をしてしまったことに気づき、おっと思う瞬間がある。

準備はいいかい？始めよう
WeeblyからWordPressへの動画チュートリアル
動画チュートリアルが苦手な方、自分のペースで進めたい方は、以下の説明を読み進めてください。
ステップ1：スタート
WordPressブログを始めるには、2つのものが必要です：
- ドメイン名（あなたのブログの名前です。例：WPBeginner.com）
- ホスティングサービス（あなたのサイトがインターネット上に存在する場所です。）
WordPress自体は無料だが、ドメインとホスティングサービスには費用がかかる（ドメインは年間14.99ドル、ホスティングサービスは月額7.99ドル）。
ありがたいことに、WordPressが推奨する公式ホスティングサービスプロバイダーであるBluehostが、ユーザーにドメイン名を無料で提供し、ウェブホスティングを73%以上オフで提供してくれることになりました。
何らかの理由で他のオプションをご希望の場合は、最高のWordPressホスティングサービス会社のリストをご覧ください。
ドメインとホスティングサービスを設定したら、次のステップはWordPressのインストールです。WordPressのインストール方法については、ステップバイステップのガイドがあります。
WordPress のインストールが完了したら、次のステップ、つまり Weebly のコンテンツを WordPress に移行する準備です。
ステップ 2: Weebly サイトからコンテンツをエクスポートする
以前は、ユーザーがWeeblyからWordPressに移行するのはあまりにも困難でした。Weeblyからデータをエクスポートするのが簡単ではなかったからです。
私たちはこの問題を解決するために、無料のWeebly to WordPress Importer を開発しました。
Weebly からコンテンツをインポートし、WordPress と互換性のあるインポートフォーマットに変換する無料のオンラインツールです。既存の Weebly サイトに変更を加えないので、安全にご利用いただけます。
Weebly to WordPress Importerのサイトにアクセスして、WeeblyサイトのURLを入力してください。
お名前とメールアドレスを入力し、エクスポート形式を選択してください。
初期設定のオプションはWXR形式であり、後で問題が発生しない限りは変更すべきではない。
次に、エクスポートファイルにページを含めるかどうかを選択する必要があります。初期設定のオプションは ‘Yes’ で、本当に Weebly ページをエクスポートしたくない場合を除き、変更する必要はありません。
その後、’Export my Weebly Website’ ボタンをクリックします。
Weebly to WordPress ImporterはWeeblyサイトからコンテンツを取得し、WordPress互換のエクスポートファイルに変換します。
Weebly エクスポートファイルをダウンロードするボタンが表示されます。それを右クリックし、メニューから「名前を付けてリンク先を保存」を選択する必要があります。
これでexport.xmlファイルがコンピューターにダウンロードされます。
ステップ 3: Weebly コンテンツを WordPress にインポートする
WeeblyのコンテンツをWordPressと互換性のある形式にしたら、WordPressにインポートしましょう。
管理エリアにログインし、ツール ” インポートページに移動します。
さまざまなプラットフォームで利用可能なインポーターのリストが表示されます。WordPressまでスクロールし、「今すぐインストール」リンクをクリックしてください。
WordPressはインポータープラグインを取得し、ページをリロードすることなくWordPressサイトにインストールします。
インストーラがインストールされたら、「Run Importer」をクリックして起動します。
WordPressインポーターページが表示されます。ファイルを選択」ボタンをクリックして、先ほどダウンロードしたexport.xmlファイルを選択してください。
次に、「ファイルをアップロードしてインポート」ボタンをクリックして続行します。
WordPressインポーターがエクスポートファイルをアップロードし、解析します。次の画面では、投稿者の割り当てを尋ねられます。
Weebly サイトから投稿者をインポートしたり、新規投稿者を作成したり、すべてのコンテンツを既存の WordPress ユーザーに割り当てることができます。
添付ファイルをダウンロードしてインポートする」オプションの横にあるチェックボックスをチェックすることを忘れないでください。Weebly サイトから WordPress メディアライブラリに画像を取り込み、後で使用できるようになります。
送信」ボタンをクリックして、インポーターを実行することができます。WordPress はエクスポートファイルから WordPress データベースにコンテンツをインポートします。また、Weebly ブログの投稿やページにリンクされている画像を取得しようとします。
完了すると、成功のメッセージが表示されます。
おめでとうございます、Weebly ブログから WordPress へのコンテンツのインポートに成功しました。WordPress 管理エリアの投稿、ページ、カテゴリーにアクセスして、すべてのコンテンツがあるかどうかを確認できます。また、メディアライブラリで Weebly サイトからインポートされた画像を確認してください。
インポート処理が途中で失敗した場合は、いつでも再実行できます。Duplicatorは賢いので、重複コンテンツを検出してスキップします。前回インポートに失敗したコンテンツだけをインポートします。
ステップ4：リダイレクトの設定
Weebly サイトでカスタムドメイン（yoursite.com など）を使用していた場合は、WordPress ホスティングサービスを指定する必要があります。
まず、Weebly アカウントにログインし、ドメインページに移動します。編集したいドメイン名をクリックし、ドメイン設定ページでネームサーバー設定の隣にある「変更」ボタンをクリックします。
次の画面では、新しいWordPressホスティングサービスのネームサーバーを入力する必要があります。Bluehostの場合、これらはns1.bluehost.comとns2.bluehost.comです。
保存」ボタンをクリックして設定を保存します。
ネームサーバーの変更は、インターネット全体に伝播するのに時間がかかる場合があります。変更が有効になると、訪問者はあなたのWordPressサイトを見始めます。
Weebly サイトでサブドメイン URL を使用していた場合 (http://example.weebly.com のような場合)、リダイレクトを設定する方法は次のとおりです。
ダッシュボードにログインし、サイトを編集します。次に、「設定」をクリックし、「SEO」タブをクリックする必要があります。
次に、ヘッダー・コード設定までスクロールダウンし、次のコードを追加する：
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://www.yourdomain.com/">
yourdomain.comを新規WordPressサイトのドメイン名に置き換えてください。
Save（保存）」と「Publish（公開）」ボタンをクリックして変更を保存することを忘れないでください。
Weebly サイトにアクセスすると、更新され WordPress サイトにリダイレクトされます。
ステップ5：パーマリンクの設定
Weebly サイトでは、ブログ投稿とページの URL 構造が異なる場合があります。一般的には次のようなものです：
ブログ投稿の場合： http://example.com/blog/your-post-title/
ページの場合： http://example.com/page-title.html
Weebly サイトでカスタムドメインを使用していた場合、古い Weebly ブログの投稿日にアクセスしたユーザーには404 エラーが表示されます。
ユーザーが正しい投稿にリダイレクトされるようにする方法を以下に示します。
設定 ” パーマリンクのページにアクセスする必要があります。スクロールダウンし、’カスタム構造’オプションを選択し、その隣のテキストフィールドに/blog/%postname%を追加します。
変更を保存」ボタンをクリックしてパーマリンクを更新するのをお忘れなく。
次に、WordPressページのURLの末尾に.htmlを追加する必要があります。
Add Any Extension to Pagesプラグインをインストールして有効化する必要があります。詳しくは、WordPressプラグインのインストール方法のステップバイステップガイドをご覧ください。
有効化したら、設定 ” ページに任意の拡張子を追加 にアクセスする必要があります。プラグイン設定に.htmlを入力し、「設定更新」ボタンをクリックしてください。
次に、設定 ” パーマリンクのページにアクセスし、変更を保存ボタンをクリックしてパーマリンク構造を更新する必要があります。
ステップ6：トラブルシューティング
WeeblyからWordPressにサイトを移行した後に必要になるものをいくつかご紹介します。
1.画像のインポートと置き換え
WordPress はインポート中に Weebly サイトから WordPress に画像をインポートしようとします。ただし、画像がメディアライブラリにダウンロードされていない場合は、インポートする必要があります。ステップバイステップの詳しい説明は、WordPress で外部画像をインポートする方法のガイドをご覧ください。
2.WordPressのエラーを修正する
転送後にWordPressサイトにエラーが表示される場合は、WordPressの一般的なエラーとその修正方法に関する究極のガイドをご覧ください。
3.WordPressインストール後にすること
すべてがうまくいけば、新しいサイトをカスタマイズし、WordPressの優れた柔軟性を活用する準備が整います。WordPressインストール後に行う重要なことのリストをご覧ください。

Hi!
Thank you so much for this tutorial – it was much needed help!
Now, after struggling quite a bit to get my Weebly content migrated to WordPress (“no content found”) I finally managed to get it sorted by trying Firefox instead of Chrome. I do however have a problem; all of my blog posts were transferred, but despite checking the boxes (as said in the video tutorial) it seems that non of my categories nor comments where migrated along with the rest of the Weebly content. Why is that? Is there something I can do to fix this?
Thank you!
/Nicole
WPBeginner Support
Hi Nicole,
You can try regenerating another export file and then import it. WordPress importer is smart enough to not avoid duplicate content, this way you would be able to import any content that didn’t import earlier.

Wow! Thank you! I thought I was going to have to rebuild a 77-page website on WordPress. You saved me a lot of time and work!
Mike Trapp
I keep trying to use this tool but tells me no content, we have 500+ blogs.
Any pointers to give that I can try?
Jason
You need to turn off SSL in Weebly before the export program will work.
Mike trapp
I am trying to export our 500_ blogs from weebly to WP
The site is venturethewild.com.
The tool says no content found.
But when I try the tool on
which is just a dummy test site I made it works.
Any ideas?
WPBeginner Support
Hi Mike,
We are not sure and we are looking into it. Meanwhile can you please try again later. Try adding your URL with and without www or try exporting in RSS format.
管理者
Mike Trapp
I have tried all those suggestions, no luck.
I can get a RSS feed file saved, but its in the “atom” format and WP wont read it in, plus it only gives 10 blog posts.

I’m having the same issue
WPBeginner Support
Thank you for letting us know, we are continuing to look into possible causes and solutions for this issue
Morgan
Hello team,
I’m always stuck when I try to generate the exporting file. It always fails. Is it because the website file on weebly is too big? Is there another way to do this? I tried to import using RSS and it still doesn’t work.
Thank you very much!
Madison
Hey there! I have tried giving it hours and even days between trying to use the import tool… I’m still getting the same error that there is no content. I’ve even tried different browsers on three different IP addresses. Still no luck…
Reka
Hi Madison,
I kept running into the same problem (with all browsers possible).
Then I realized that I have SSL certification enabled on my Weebly website which might be causing the trouble, so I disabled it, republished the site without SSL. I’ve tried weeblytowp converter with the Weebly site republished without SSL (please, note that it means that your URL will start with http instead of https this way), and it worked immediately.
If it applies to you it’s worth giving it a shot.
Linda
Hello! I paid for my domain name through Weebly but now I want to use it for a WordPress blog. I don’t need to import any content (it wasn’t a blog before), but I don’t want to pay two hosts for the same domain name.
Can I just link my paid domain name into WordPress?
Thanks!
-Linda
WPBeginner Support
Hi Linda,
You can keep your domain name on Weebly and still point it to your WordPress blog. You can also transfer your domain registration from Weebly to your new hosting provider. See our guide on the difference between domain names and hosting for more information.

I was following the video but the bluehost and all looks different to me and I didn’t have to install wordpress. Do you know if that is new?
Btw super thanks for all your great guides
Richard
Great article and 95% of it has worked like a charm!!
The last 5% is the domain hosting.
What if you didn’t buy or transfer your custom domain name to weebly?
My domain name is hosted by a local company and just points to weebly.
WPBeginner Support
Hi Richard,
In that case, you just need to change DNS settings and point them to your new hosting provider.

This is brilliant – thank you! Just one question though…my weebly site is a specific domain name which also has an associated gmail account with it (using the actual domain name) and my main concern is losing that email address or it not working any longer. What’s the best way to move this all over? I did consider creating a new website with a new domain and simply creating a re-direct on it…but don’t really fancy paying for two lots of everything. What’s the best way to proceed?
WPBeginner Support
Hi Arfa,
We assume that the Gmail account uses your domain name like usename@example.com. This means you are using Gsuite or Google Apps for Work. Please contact their support directly and they will be able to guide you better.
管理者
Tatjana
Thank you for the tutorial, I am willing to try it out but am a bit confused on how to proceed. I have my website and blog on weebly under a custom domain and I want to keep this name also on my new wordpress site. This would mean I do not want to purchase a new domain. I just want to change the hosting to bluehost and then create my new WP site and use the domain name that I am currently using with weebly. Is it possible at all? Of course I need my old site to go on functioning for as long as the new WP one is not ready.
Is it possible? Or I need to necessarily purchase a new domain? Mmh… I’m just at a loss and hope you can help!
I’d also be happy to pay for someone to guide me through this procedure. Thank you for any tips you can give!
WPBeginner Support
Hi Tatjana,
You can signup for Bluehost and they will allow you to use a temporary address for your website. You can use it to build your WordPress site. Once you are ready to move, you can go a head and change the domain name settings ‘Name Servers’ and point them to Bluehost’s nameservers. This will ensure minimum downtime for your visitors.
However, once you have changed name servers you will need to update WordPress URLs because they will still be using the temporary address. Go to Settings > General and add your domain name in WordPress Address and Site Address fields. You will also need to update URLs in posts and pages using the Velvet Blues Update URLs plugin.

Thank you for this tutorial. I have wanted to move my Weebly site for months. I have a relatively small site with lots of images, and the folks over at Upwork told me it would take 40 hours and hundreds of dollars to move my site. Seemed unreasonable to me.
Can’t wait to try this out.
QUESTION? I have a custom domain name in weebly, and will be moving to a completely new site name on wordpress. Presume my custom site name will work with the weeblytowp.com tool.
QUESTION? I have several private pages that are only accessible with a member login. Do I need to make these pages public in order for them to move over? I am just trying to think this through before I start the process? If they have to be public, then maybe I can copy them in Weebly and just name them something obsure and hide the navigation. This could be a temporary solution.
WPBeginner Support
Hi Dee,
Yes, you can use your custom domain name on your new WordPress website.
Yes, you will need to make those pages public before you run the importer tool. You can make them private again once you have downloaded your export file.

Please let me know what I can do to remedy this.
WPBeginner Support
Hi,
This error may appear if you have an unusually large Weebly site. To solve this you can put half content on your Weebly site into draft mode, and then try again. If you succeed, then download your XML file. Now go back to Weebly and put the other half of your content to draft, and publish the other half. Try to export it again with.
You will now have two files to import in WordPress. You can import them one by one.

Hi Guys,
I want to move from Weebly to a completely new WordPress install with a different hosting company.
I’m using a “proper” domain name (just like “mysite.com”) on Weebly and I want to continue to use this domain name on my new website.
When I sing up to my new hosting account what domain name should I use until I move my Weebly Content?
Will I be able to enter “mysite.com” as the domain name when I create the hosting account?
If “mysite.com” is pointing to my Weebly website how will I be able to access the WordPress dashboard in my new hosting account?
I know that’s a lot of questions, but I’m a bit confused…
Thanks.

I am getting the same error – that there is “no content” in my weebly blog to be found. I am wondering if this is built to only export recent articles perhaps? Like within the last 30 days (like some RSS feeds), and maybe that is the problem?
I hope you can provide insight, as I was really hinging my new WordPress site on being able to export the old site. Thank you.

That’s a very useful guide.
However, I am stuck at the stage where I tried to transfer the weebly content to WordPress. I have followed all the steps to the point. I got an error message saying: “Could not find any content in your weebly blog to export”.

Hello,
It seems your importer only imported blog pages. M
But nmajority of my site is in html pages and are not imported.
Your import file is only around 5 MB and ny zip archive file taken from Weebly 121 MB.
So, it seems that your importer do not import regular html pages. Pity.
Maybe HTML Import 2 plugin can help? But this plugin do not import th content, i think.
Hopeless matter in case, only weebly html pages to import.

Hello,
Thanks for the walkthrough.
One question, i have a custom domain name through GoDaddy, that url is where my weebly site was, now i have built a wordpress site. I want to point my domain to my new wordpress site thats hosted on bluehost (like you suggested). My question is, when i put in the header code on the weebly settings, is the domain going to be the domain that i used for weebly, or is it going to be the one i used to build the new wordpress site, i would like the weebly domain to now be my wordpress site’s domain.
thanks for your help.

Okay so I tried to do this and I ran into a problem.
The problem is on my Weebly site, most of my content wasn’t posted in “blog” form. In other words, I posted the vast majority of my blog-like content as its own page. This was a creative choice I made at the time that I still think I kind of prefer, but none of this content migrated from Weebly to WordPress, I assume because it’s not technically in “blog form.”
To illustrate what I’m talking about, you can see that all of the articles listed here didn’t make it, when you look at my current version of the WordPress site.
I do have some content that crossed over that is in blog form as you can see on the WordPress site, but not only is that all that has crossed over, but WordPress combined two separate blogs from my Weebly site.
I’m just not sure where to go from here. Do I have to copy and paste everything else?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
WPBeginner Support
Hey Will,
The plugin can import your pages too. Please click on the pages in WordPress admin area to see if the missing content is already there.
If it isn’t, then we will advise you to get a new export file from Weebly2WP and then run the importer again. It is smart enough not import duplicate content so you can safely run it again on the same WordPress install.

WPBeginner Support
Hey Will,
We can now confirm that the import was successful and your pages are there. Now you would need to follow the instructions mentioned at Step 5 in the article to add .html extension to your pages.

Forgive me if this gets mentioned and I didn’t see it, but my question is this: Once this is done, it doesn’t remove your content from Weebly, right? I’d like to give this a shot, but don’t want to risk losing my site as it currently is to do so.

With the first step being getting a domain name, I’d like to keep the one I use on Weebly, which is myname.com. Can I use that? Or in the transfer process, will I get an error message about that one not being available? And my Weebly site includes a drop-down portfolio where I created strings of samples by company name. Will those transfer just fine? Thank you!

Hi This looks really useful – not seen this question asked so will ask now – can you use this tool to export a weebly site – posts and pages plus media and then import those pages into an already existing WordPress site with its own pages and Posts?
Will the existing WordPress pages and posts be left intact and will the timestamp of the Weebly posts and pages be preserved so that they are slotted into the existing WordPress site correctly?
Scenario is a school has two seperate websites one on WordPress and one on Weebly and they want to merge to two on the WP one.
WPBeginner Support
Hi Cliff,
Yes, it will do that. However, you should always backup your existing WordPress site just to be safe.

Hi Szilvia,
Can you please share your Weebly site’s URL?

Thank you very much, It is really big help for me!
If I use your code in weebly seo settings to redirect my free mydomain.weebly.com subdomain to my new wp domain, than what will happen to the previous seo work, Google rankings, backlinks, pagerank, etc? Will my rankings change? Thank you
WPBeginner Support
Since you are transferring from Weebly subdomain, your SEO rankings will not transfer. However, since your content is not available on your old site, search engines may eventually start ranking your new site for those keywords.

I was quite pleased to discover this post and tool as I have a client who has asked me to move their weebly site to WordPress.
However I tried it just now and it says:
“Could not find any content in your weebly blog to export. Did you enter the correct URL?…”
Which is very odd because the weebly site really is there.
Am I doing something wrong? I have googled the problem but haven’t found anyone with a similar issue. Is there a support forum in which I could post this?
Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Hello! Thank you so much for this tutorial it was really helpful! But on my website I have a page called “Blog” and that is where I want to post all of my old blog posts from Weebly. How should I manage to place the content there?
Carla
WOW!!! Thanks so much for providing this tutorial. I had been stressing about making this move complete. I had NO idea that it would be this EASY to do and for the last month I’ve had both my weebly (with the bulk of my content) and my newly created wordpress (with very little content) blogs going. Thanks to you as of today they are officially MERGED :-). I did it i less than 30 minutes since I already had some of the steps completed. Anyway needless to say – I am ecstatic about all of this. THANKS again!!!

Ah, I wish this had been around a year or so ago when I moved my site from Weebly to WordPress. I lost all my comments as I was told there was no way to move them across, and I had to copy and paste all my blog posts and backdate them. It’s good to see that the hole’s been filled for others now though.

Hey Guys,
Firstly, thank you for weebly-to-wp tool. This will definitely expedite the process of exporting WXR File now.
Those new to such kind of migration, please know that there are less/no free tools available to export your Weebly site and convert it into WordPress (WXR). So, once again thanks to folks at WPBeginner.
Just 2 days back I did the Weebly to WP migration for one of my client. Lucky she was not interested in Comments & Pages but Posts & Images.
I did that thru RSS Format. By the way, Weebly feeds use the ATOM format rather than RSS. I have used one Tool to convert that to RSS Format.
Finally, have managed to migrate Posts. But…for Images, I have exported entire Weebly Blog & Uploaded the “uploads” folder into Root Directory as the Images were getting fetched via domainname.com/uploads/… in Weebly & can be set easily on Self-hosted WP w/o altering the internal links (if domain is same; Find-Replace, otherwise) or Need any plugin to import external links!

Hi Rajendra,
Thanks for your sharing your Weebly to WordPress migration story. It was quite difficult even for experienced users to safely transfer their content to WordPress. Now with our free Weebly to WordPress Importer this process will become a lot easier.
