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 I am just beginning this process and understand I transfer the nameservers as the final step, but I can’t seem to find on my weebly
‘Click on the domain name that you want to edit and then on domain settings page click on the change button next to nameservers option’
I go into the weebly site I want to move over, click on settings and within those no options for nameservers, am I looking in the right place?
WPBeginner Support
Did you purchase your domain name from another location? That could be why the option is not in Weebly

Hi, I am wanting to transfer my weebly posts to Wordpress. I am interested in following this information to transfer my weebly site to Wordpress but I am lacking tech and coding skills. If I go through with the import do I then crest more content through weebly or Wordpress? Does it completely get rid of weebly. I purchased my domain through weebly I believe
WPBeginner Support
If you wanted to transfer the site then you would create your new content on the new WordPress site after following the tutorial. This guide will redirect users to your new site using WordPress but you will still have access to the Weebly content from your admin end.
管理者
Susan
Hi, this may be a basic question but I like the look of my website on Weebly. Does the transfer keep the framework and look of the website? Or does it mean I have to find a new wordpress template to display the content.
Thanks
WPBeginner Support
You would need to find a new theme for your site as it does not transfer the look of your site. There are page builder plugins you can use to recreate your current design if you wanted.

Hi, great article. Do you have a tool like this but for migrations other than Weebly? I built a landing page on a third-party service, but would now like to duplicate it in my wordpress site. It’s just one page. Ideas?

It would depend on the specific service for what is available.

We used your tool to export blog data from Weebly and then import into Wordpress. It seemed to work fine but with one major exception: the blog titles did not import.
Do you have advice on a fix? Should we try to import again (over existing blog data) or manually enter all the titles to each blog post (about 120 blog posts)?
WPBeginner Support
You may want to try recreating the export file to ensure it didn’t have a hiccup and then reimporting.
管理者
Bill
So, what if the Weebly site is one of the ones that are offered through HostGator and the WordPress I want to use is also on HostGator. Will the tool work in that instance?
WPBeginner Support
If you’re using the same host then you could set up a staging site to set up the new site while the old site is active: https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-create-staging-environment-for-a-wordpress-site/
管理者

I read through the article, and noticed you hadn’t addressed comments. Do the comments also get imported, through the Weebly default comment box. Or is that one of the things the importer doesn’t do?
It’s important for me to know, as I recently signed up with Weebly and didn’t realise how lame their comments section for blogs were. I’m deciding whether I should use Disqus instead of the default – as it seems to have more options, as far as commenting goes. But I wouldn’t switch, if I knew the WP importer, could only import my default comments. If at all???
WPBeginner Support
The exporter should include your comments on your site, if you wanted to test it you can create a local installation using:

Hi there. I first want to say that I used this guide successfully to move from weebly to wordpress (after disabling ssl to export weebly data), so thanks!
I have a domain related question.
I told bluehost that I own my domian ieltstutors.org, though Im building my wordpress site on a temp domain given by bluehost.
Am I right in saying that after I have finish building my WP site, all I need to do is change my weebly nameservers to bluehost? Do I then just go to bluehost and press “transfer to bluehost”?
Is there a way to do this so that the site doesn’t go down?
Thanks for all your help!
WPBeginner Support
When you are ready you would want to change the domain’s nameservers to BlueHost and then update your site’s url to the correct domain and use a tool like the one from our article here:
https://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-update-urls-when-moving-your-wordpress-site/
You should also be able to reach out to BlueHost to help you update your domain if you wanted.

Thank you for leaving your comment! I was struggling to export my weebly site with the weeblytowp application until I turned off SSL.
Thank you!

I’m having issues downloading the WXR version of my Weebly site. I’m getting the “Could not find any content in your Weebly blog to export. Did you enter the correct URL?” Message.
Am I missing something? It’s a full website I want to migrate, no blog attached to it. Could that be the reason I’m getting an error? I’m looking to move a few sites any insight would great.
Carlos
WPBeginner Support
That message can happen when you attempt to export a very large site but if you run into that error please reach out to us using our contact form for us to take a look

Denise
If I already have a Weebly site with a domain through Bluehost, is switching it to WordPress easier? At one point my website was giving a large error and the site was unaccesible because both Weebly and WordPress were trying to work on the website at the same time. We changed to Weebly for simplicity, but now I would really like to move us to Wordpress so that we have the ability to customize far more than what we have right now.
Thanks!
WPBeginner Support
The difficulty would be due to wanting to install WordPress in the same location as your current site. You can create an installation on your local computer: https://www.wpbeginner.com/how-to-install-wordpress/#installlocal
and once you set up your site there, you can overwrite the site on your host using: https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-move-wordpress-from-local-server-to-live-site/

Hi there! Thanks for the informative post!
I’m trying to use the weeblytowp for my client’s site but the result keeps saying “there is no content on this website”.
I’m confused because there is over 4 years of blog posts I’m trying to transfer over.
Can you help?
WPBeginner Support
More than likely the exporter is having an error due to how much content is on the site. If you reach out using our contact form we should be able to help.

Hi there! What if I have bought my domain through Weebly and I want to keep this same domain with my new wordpress site? I’m not whether or not to tell bluehost I “have a domain” already or not, because I no longer want to be affiliated with Weebly at all, but I want my same domain name and it’s through them. Completely lost at how I should go about this. Thanks for the help!
WPBeginner Support
You would let BlueHost know you already have a domain and then you would transfer your domain to BlueHost once you are ready
管理者
jenn
Is it completely necessary to add the .html for redirects? It is not on the original wix urls.
Thanks
WPBeginner Support
It would be for if you have pages, posts to not end in .html but any pages you had on Weebly would need the .html added to prevent errors with redirection.
管理者
Jacky
Thank you for this great tutorial. When I click on Domains, I don’t see the screen Edit Nameservers. Is it because my domain is with GoDaddy? In that case, would I have to edit that on GoDaddy? Thank you so much!
WPBeginner Support
Hi Jacky,
Correct, if you purchased your domain through another registrar such as GoDaddy then you would need to edit the nameservers through them rather than Weebly
管理者
Jacky
Thank you! I have my blog with weebly using my .com domain. When you say transfer files, does that deactivate the weebly site or is it just just a copy of the files? I mean I want to copy the weebly files to wp, but i want to leave my weebly site live while i build the new wp. Once i finish building it, then i’ll move my domain to wp.
WPBeginner Support
It creates copies of your content, it does not remove your content
Alice Ford
When I tried to export my site it said it couldn’t find any data.
WPBeginner Support
We will certainly take a look for any errors that could be causing this with the exporter.

How long it takes to transfer and unluck a domain form weebly to another host.
WPBeginner Support
With any domain registrar, you would need to wait 60 days from when it is first purchased. After that, you would need to reach out to Weebly for their specifics

This did nothing for me. After importing to wordpress, nothing has changed on it. Stock site still in effect.
WPBeginner Support
Hi Jessica,
When you are logged into WordPress admin dashboard, can you see your imported content under posts or pages? If you cannot then this mean that importer didn’t run or it didn’t find any content to import.
管理者
Carissa
After clicking the ‘Export my Weebly Website’ button, it changes to ‘Generating Export File’. On the bottom left side of my screen ways it says, ‘Waiting for weeblytowp.com’. After a few minutes, I get a message that says ‘504 Gateway Time-Out’. Is this because my Weebly site is too large? Or do you think this could be a technical difficulty?
WPBeginner Support
Hi Carissa,
This could be due to a large site. You can try again in a few mins. If it still doesn’t work then try to save some of your Weebly content as Drafts and then try to export.
管理者
Carissa
That’s what I was afraid you were going to say. Unfortunately, the bulk of the content are pages which you can’t put into draft mode on Weebly (that I’m aware of). Do you have a link that I can pay someone to do this for me? I don’t care about making it pretty (I can do that), I just need to download the Weebly site. I hope this question makes sense?

While we don’t have a recommended location for hiring for that, you could take a look at some of the recommendations in this article: https://www.wpbeginner.com/showcase/best-places-to-hire-wordpress-developers/

Thanks for the guide and tool. I’m trying to export a Weebly blog and am getting the ‘no content’ error message. I’ve disabled SSL in the Weebly editor which seems to have taken a while to take place, but I am now able to access the site via http only. However still no luck exporting the site. Any suggestions would be gratefully received!

I spoke with Weebly today and asked them if it was possible to transfer a site to WP, just in case we wanted to switch down the road….. They said no
haha
Rachel
I have a domain that I purchased through Weebly, and I have designed a new site with wordpress.org.. and now I can’t figure out how to use my weebly domain for my wordpress site. The Weebly people said I need the DNS… I don’t know what that is
WPBeginner Support
Hi Rachel,
Your new host where you are hosting WordPress.org will provide you DNS server details. They usually look like this:
ns1.yourhost.com
ns2.yourhost.com
Once you know what DNS servers are used by your host, you can edit your domain settings in Weebly and point it to your new host.

Hello,
I have been trying to transfer my Weebly blog to WordPress. I keep getting the error message “Could not find any content in your weebly blog to export. Did you enter the correct URL?” I have retried the transfer at least 100 times in the past day and a half. Still no luck. Any suggestions?
WPBeginner Support
Hi David,
We are aware of the issue and our team is working on it. Meanwhile, you can try tips mentioned by other users. Some users disabled SSL and that worked for them.
管理者
David McKinney
Thank you.
Disabling the SSL really worked.
WPBeginner Support
Hey David,
Glad to hear that

Okay.
Now how do I turn the SSL back on for Weebly? Turning it off was easy. Turning it back on, not so,much. I do not want to leave it unprotected.
Thanks.

Hi David,
You’d find instructions on Weebly’s website or reach out to their support.

WOW! I was dreading the prospect of recreating my Weebly website in WordPress … and now I don’t have to do it! Thank you so much for this nifty little tool. After a couple of false starts, it ripped right through its tasks, and I’m done! So very cool …
Jo
Hey, so I built my site, free in Weebly, and have my bluehost account. I tried using your importer but the URL Weebly provided is HTTPS not HTTP…. is that because I didn’t purchase anything from Weebly? When I run the importer tool it says that it can’t find any content on the weebly URL.
So appreciate your advice on this!
Karin
Hi, I am extracting my weebly site from ipage, which seemed to work, then imported it to wordpress following the instructions, but I can’t see it to see what it looks like. The home button at the top of the dashboard says ss_site_title when I click on it, it goes to the weebly site, how do I see what the wordpress looks like before I make it live?
WPBeginner Support
Hi Karin,
We are not sure what you mean. If you have successfully imported your Weebly content in WordPress, you will see it under ‘Posts’. It is possible that your domain name is still pointing to your Weebly website. In that case, you will need to change your domain name settings from your Weebly account and point it to your iPage hosting account by changing the DNS server settings.

Hey there! I’m working on moving a client from Weebly to Wordpress but i’m running into an issue with the Weebly to Wordpress importer. I’m getting an error from the converter that is saying no blog content was found. The blog in question has 13 posts and the URL is correct. tried with both the root url and the blog extension but it can’t seem to find any posts. Are there any troubleshooting options to figure out why the converter isn’t finding the posts?
Reka
Hi Kylen,
try to disable the SSL certification under Weebly settings and republish the site. After that the URL will start with http instead of https. Run the converter on the http URL. It worked for me, it might do so for you as well.

Jerry Peres
I lost some content when moving from weebly to WP. On that time I was very disappointed.

Hi Jerry,
If you followed this tutorial, then your original Weebly content should be safe and you can still manually copy and paste it. You can also run the importer again, it is smart enough not to fetch duplicate content.

A comment on this thread indicates that the exporter will only work if the domain is also registered on Weebly, is this the case, and if so is there a workaround?
WPBeginner Support
Hi Shawn,
We don’t understand. Actually the importer would work whether you have a Weebly branded domain, a custom domain registered with Weebly, or a custom domain registered elsewhere.

The exporter tool at weeblytowp doesn’t seem to be working. I just tried it on 2 different Weekly sites and it results in:
“Could not find any content in your weebly blog to export. Did you enter the correct URL? Go Back”
Chloe Marrable
I had the same issue, please can you help? I checked the URL…is it because my weebly site is not a blog?
sarah brechner
This is brilliant! Thanks so much. Everything transferred except for some images. I can deal with those.
NAME SERVERS: My only problem came when I tried your instructions for domain name servers. These instructions are only for those who have bought domains through Weebly. If you haven’t bought your domain through Weebly, you will not see any domains page on your account. This is important! Apparently, you must go to your outside domains registrar and make the name server changes there. I was told this by Weebly. Note: I haven’t made the name server changes to my domain registrar yet.
*So can you confirm this procedure? Many people purchase their domains elsewhere, and these instructions won’t work for us, because we don’t have a domains page in Weebly.
WPBeginner Support
Hi Sarah,
For users who purchased their domain elsewhere, they will need to login to their account on their domain registrar website to change nameserver and other settings.

Every time I download the export.xml file, it tells me that it is too big, its always 2.17 or 2.27 MB and it needs to be less than 2MB. If i don’t select pages its still too big. and if i choose RSS option it won’t let me upload it because its not a WXR into wordpress.
how do i make it smaller? i am unsure how to draft or unpublish parts of my site without doing it manually.
WPBeginner Support
Hi Finn,
There are two things that you can do.
1. You can increase the file upload size limit in WordPress.
2. You can split the XML file to make it smaller.

Is there a way to import products from my Weebly e-commerce shop to Woocommerce (Wordpress) using this tool? I am very desperate as I have over 400 digital products that I need to transfer. I am hoping there is a way to do this. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi

Thank you

Oh, how I wish this had worked. but like most people in this thread, I too received the error message “Could not find any content in your weebly blog to export. Did you enter the correct URL?” Yes, the website content is online, active and working. I had been using Chrme to attempt this with no results, so I tried it in Firefox as well, which also gave no results, the same error message and took even longer. Too bad; this would be really valuable if it just did what was designed to do.

This tutorial is fantastic, but I’ve hit a bump in the road. When I click to “Export my Weebly website” i’m directed to a blank page. Not sure what I could be doing wrong. Thanks for making this video.

Hi Kathleen,
Once you are redirected, you need to wait while the script runs in the background and prepares the export file. Once ready, it will be automatically begin downloading.

I did everything as suggested but not all pages came through and – most important – the visual layout didn’t came through.
I tried to import my weebly CSS to WP but I get the error :
“The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.”
And it’s true
It only has a “main_style.css” and if I try to rename it to “style.css” I get another error:
“The package could not be installed. The style.css stylesheet doesn’t contain a valid theme header.”

Hi Boka Mark Szasz,
Unfortunately you cannot use the same website design on WordPress. You will have to use a WordPress theme for that.

I recently switched from Weebly to Wordpress using the instructions above. I’ve tried a few different wordpress themes, and most (including the first I tried) has, what I think was my old menu on weebly, as static links in the header, running over the regular stuff, and won’t go away no matter what I change in the theme settings. I have no idea how to fix this!

I also had trouble getting my website to transfer, but once we disabled the SSL, (a security measure to protect the site), published the site without SSL (the s in https was removed), and then used the new URL, the importer worked fine.
Now my issue is trying to change my domain host. When I go to the Domains page on my Weebly account, I don’t see a domain name to click on. I see only “Transfer a Domain” (to Weebly) or “Register a Domain.” Since I already have my own domain name that I want to keep, I don’t know how to proceed. The choice I need is not there. Can you help?

I had the same problem and found out via Weebly chat that I had to do this with my domain registrar, not Weebly. So directions in this tutorial are only for those who bought domains with Weebly.
