Move your blog and images

Bring blog posts and pictures over by hand, with what yaya reads automatically and what it does not.

Last updated

Before you start

  • Your old blog posts, or their addresses.
  • Your images downloaded to your computer.
  • About 5 minutes per post.

What the import covers

Posts move over by hand. Onboarding import reads one page address and the images on it.

Move a post

  1. Open your old post and copy the title and the text.
  2. Open the blog in the workspace and click Add post.
  3. Paste the title and the text.
  4. Add the images from your downloaded folder. See Add and generate images.
  5. Save, then publish.
  6. Repeat for each post. Do your top five by traffic first.

Move images

  1. Download the originals from your old media library, not the resized copies.
  2. Rename files with plain words, like team-photo.jpg.
  3. Upload them in the editor.

Fix common problems

Formatting broke after paste. Paste as plain text, then reapply headings and links.

An image will not upload. The file may be over the size limit. Compress it and try again.

I have hundreds of posts. Move the ones with traffic, then email support@yaya.page about the rest.

See Redirect old URLs for what happens to old post addresses.
