Move your site from Webflow to yaya

What moves and what does not

yaya reads the public text, headings and image references on your live Webflow site and drafts a new site from them. Webflow's code export gives you HTML, CSS, JavaScript and assets. It does not include your CMS, ecommerce or user accounts. yaya does not import Webflow code.

Before you start

• A Webflow login and a yaya account.
• A paid Webflow plan if you want the code export.
• About 45 minutes, plus DNS wait time.

Move your site

1. Open your Webflow project and choose Code export from the main menu, if your plan includes it.
2. Download the ZIP as a backup.
3. Open each CMS collection you use in the Designer and click Export to get a CSV.
4. Download the images from the CSV links. They point to your Webflow project, and the links stop working if you delete it.
5. Open yaya and start onboarding. Paste your site address under Already have a website? (optional) and click Import from my site.
6. Read the description under What does your business do? and fix it. Pick your business type, location and language, then click Next.
7. Review the draft, upload your images, and publish. See Publish your site.

Point your domain to yaya

Open your Webflow hosting settings for the project and remove the custom domain once yaya is ready. Then follow Move a domain to yaya and Switch DNS with no downtime.

Add redirects for CMS item URLs.

Fix common problems

Blog posts are missing. Paste the text from your CSV into the description or write the posts in yaya.

Images look broken later. Your CSV links point to Webflow. Upload your own copies.
