If you’ve ever moved a WordPress site — or a site on any other CMS — to Webflow, you know how laborious getting all that content into Webflow can be. We’ve seen Webflow-using designers get creative with scraping, RSS-powered Zaps, Fiverr tasks, and more.

But we’ve always thought you shouldn’t have to do that. Which is why we’re excited to announce that:

Today, migrating content to Webflow CMS gets approximately 100 times easier.*

Because with the new CSV import, you can bring hundreds of posts into Webflow with a click of a button. (And a little work to get that content into the CSV, naturally.)

Using CSV import to bring content to Webflow CMS

The first step is getting your content into a CSV to import to Webflow. If you’re migrating a site from WordPress, you’ll find plenty of plugins that export to CSV, and the same should hold for other popular content management systems.

Once you’ve got your content in that CSV, just head over to Webflow, open your Collections panel and:

Create a new Collection, or Pick an existing Collection

Then click the import button in your Collection settings.

Little button, lots of power!

Whether you’re using a new or existing Collection, you can map each row in the CSV to an existing field, create a new field, or ignore that row entirely. This lets you create the content structure on the fly, based on the data in your CSV.

‍Map your CSV content to any of the field types in the Webflow CMS, and create as custom of a content structure as you need.

If you’re looking to test the import process out for free, simply start with a CSV of 50 items or less — you’re free to play around with the CMS as much as you like with that number of CMS items. After that, you’ll need to add CMS or Business hosting to unlock the full power of the Webflow CMS.
