The WordPress migrator allows you to quickly import content from your WordPress site to your Ghost publication. You can access the migrator tool from the Settings → Advanced →Import/Export area of Ghost Admin.It’s helpful to log in to your WordPress site before running the migration in Ghost Admin.
Next, click Open WordPress Settings. If already logged into WordPress, this will take you directly to the location of your WordPress site where an export can be generated.Select All content, click Download Export File, which will download an XML file with your content in it.
Once your export has been downloaded, return to the migrator window in Ghost Admin, and select Click or drag file here to upload, and navigate to the XML file you downloaded from WordPress, once uploaded click Continue.If you’re unsure of where the file was saved, check your Downloads folder.
Ghost will confirm the number of posts and pages that will be imported to your publication. If satisfied, click Import content to begin the import of your data.After a few moments, you’ll see a confirmation message, confirming that your data was successfully migrated to your Ghost site.
