Posted April 25, 20187 yr Can someone help me with understanding the Wordpress migration tool. Does it only take pages and not posts? Is it possible to import a Wordpress xml-export via the xml-import in pages? Wordpress (4.x) to Pages Pages Databases Database Categories Database Records Database Comments Media
April 25, 20187 yr Community Expert Posts will be turned into “Pages Records”. The converter will directly read your database and your filesystem (for images). So an XML export is not needed or useful.
April 25, 20187 yr Community Expert It’s just how it’s called in the Pages app. It’s like a post in WordPress. It has a title and a body, it belongs to a category and so on.
April 25, 20187 yr Author Aha, that is what happens if I would go for the wordpress-migration tool then? Is the blog on this page set up in pages or the blog tool?
April 25, 20187 yr Community Expert Pages. But confusingly using a custom layout that looks like the new Blog app homepage. ?

It's really not a community but a blog I'd like to import in all its glory.
