Move your blog content from Ghost to Grigora. This guide shows how to export your Ghost content, import it into Grigora, and review the migrated posts, pages, and media.
Why Migrate from Ghost to Grigora
Grigora includes a visual editor, SEO tools, and content management features for managing your imported blog.
Part 1: Exporting Content from Ghost
Accessing Ghost Settings
Log in to your Ghost account and navigate to your admin dashboard where you can access all site management tools. Click on "Settings" from the main navigation menu to access your site's configuration options.
Finding Migration Tools
Scroll down through the settings menu until you find the import/export section. Click on "Import/Export" to access Ghost's content migration tools that allow you to export your entire site's content.
Exporting Your Content
In the migration tools section, click on "Export" to begin the content export process. Click on "Export Content and Settings" to download a package that includes all your posts, pages, tags, authors, and site settings.
Save the JSON file to your device in a location where you can easily find it during the import process. This file contains all your Ghost content in a structured format that Grigora can read and import.
Part 2: Importing Content into Grigora
Accessing Your Grigora Site
Log into your Grigora account and navigate to the site dashboard where you want to import your Ghost content. Make sure you're in the correct site if you manage multiple websites.
Opening Migration Settings
Open "Settings" in the Grigora site dashboard from the left navigation panel. Go to "Migration Settings" to access Grigora's content import tools that support various platforms including Ghost.
Configuring the Migration
Select "Ghost" as the migration source from the available platform options. This tells Grigora to expect Ghost-formatted content and use the appropriate import processes.
Enter your Ghost site URL in the designated field to help Grigora understand your site's structure and properly import content with correct linking and formatting.
Upload the JSON file you saved earlier from Ghost using the file upload interface. This provides Grigora with all the content data needed for the migration.
Click "Start Migration" to begin the process and let Grigora automatically import all your Ghost content. The migration process may take a few minutes depending on the amount of content being transferred.
Verifying Your Migration
Checking Imported Content
Once the migration is complete, go to the "Posts" section in Grigora to verify that your content has been successfully imported. You'll see all your Ghost posts have been successfully imported with their content intact, including text, formatting, and metadata.
Content Verification Checklist
Verify that the following elements have been properly migrated:
All blog posts with original content and formatting
Page content including static pages and custom content
Tags and categories for proper content organization
Publication dates and author information
Media files and images used in your posts
Internal links between posts and pages
Benefits of the Migration
After the migration, review your posts in the content management system and check that links and media work as expected.
Pro Tip: Before starting the migration, create a backup of your Ghost content and make note of any custom functionality or special formatting you want to preserve. After migration, take time to explore Grigora's additional features like built-in SEO tools, newsletter management, and advanced design options that can enhance your migrated content.
