How Do I Export My Blog From Squarespace?

Last updated on December 25, 2022 @ 1:23 pm

There are a few steps you need to take in order to export your blog from Squarespace. First, you need to log into your account and go to the settings page. From there, you will see an option to export your content.

Once you have clicked on that, you will be able to choose what content you want to export. After you have made your selection, click on the export button and your content will be downloaded as an XML file.

The next step is to open up that XML file and find the section that says “rss“. In that section, you will see a line that says “xmlns:content“.

Delete that line completely and then save the file. Once you have done that, you can upload the file to your new platform.

If you followed these steps correctly, all of your blog posts should now be on your new platform!

PRO TIP: If you are considering exporting your blog from Squarespace, be aware that there is no guarantee that all of your content will be exported successfully. Additionally, some formatting may be lost in the export process. Therefore, it is recommended that you backup your content before proceeding.
