Exporting your website

On the Settings → Export tab, Start export downloads the website's full content as a ZIP archive: pages, news, events, messages, newsletter subscribers, settings and the media library files. The archive builds in the background, the download link also arrives by e-mail, and it is available for 24 hours.

The tab is in the System group.

What is in the archive?

JSON files per content type, in every language:

  • pages, news and events with their blocks,
  • news and event categories,
  • contact messages,
  • newsletter subscriptions,
  • redirects,
  • users (without passwords),
  • the media library's data, with the original files in the media folder,
  • the site settings.

Passwords and saved API keys are never included; the export only shows whether one is set.

How it works

  1. Click Start export.
  2. The archive builds in the background; with a large media library this can take several minutes. You do not need to keep the page open.
  3. When it is ready, we e-mail you a download link, and Download export (.zip) appears on the tab. You may need to sign in before the download.
  4. The archive is deleted 24 hours after it is ready; the tab shows until when the link is valid. After that, Start a new export makes a new one.

Newsletter subscribers

The addresses collected by the newsletter signup block are not listed in the editor; you find them in the export, in the newsletter subscriptions file.
