Миграция Squarespace в WordPress 2026

Squarespace exports are partial. expect to rebuild design in a theme and manually handle commerce. This guide minimises traffic loss during DNS cutover.

Как мы проверяли эти шаги

Перед публикацией прогоняем каждый шаг минимум на двух брендах, если он зависит от хостера,. или дважды в разные дни на одном стеке. Пишем ошибки консоли, расхождения UI по регионам и обновляем текст, если перенесли кнопку. Пути и скриншоты ревьюим ежеквартально. Для DNS/SSL/оплаты проверяем варианты отката и ссылаемся на официальные доки.

  1. 1

    Step 1: Export what Squarespace allows

    Use XML export for blog/pages where available; download images manually or via tools for galleries Squarespace does not export cleanly.

  2. 2

    Step 2: Install WordPress on target hosting

    Provision hosting, SSL, and WordPress; pick a flexible theme (Astra/Kadence) to approximate layout.

  3. 3

    Step 3: Import content

    Tools → Import → WordPress. upload XML. Reassign authors and check media attachments.

  4. 4

    Step 4: Rebuild key pages

    Landing pages often need block editor or page builder recreation. treat this as a redesign with content reuse.

  5. 5

    Step 5: Map URLs and prepare redirects

    Spreadsheet old Squarespace URLs to new WordPress permalinks; implement 301s via redirect plugin or server rules.

  6. 6

    Step 6: Staging QA

    Test forms, analytics, and mobile layouts before DNS switch.

  7. 7

    Step 7: Cut DNS and monitor

    Lower TTL, switch A/CNAME, watch Search Console for crawl errors post-launch.

Часто задаваемые вопросы

You typically rebuild checkout on WooCommerce or Shopify. Plan data migration separately.

Temporary fluctuation is normal; proper 301 mapping and speed parity reduce risk.
