WP Gatsby Markdown Exporter

Beschreibung

The plugin creates zip files containing posts converted to Markdown. A WP-CLI command exists to handle exporting sites with a large amount of content.

  • Move WordPress content to Gatsby-friendly Markdown.
  • Customize the export! Remap and restructure exported fields.
  • CLI: Avoid PHP timeouts by using the command line with WP-CLI.
  • CLI: Export progress bar (great for large sites)!

Reminder: always keep a backup of the WordPress database and files in case your export doesn’t work as expected!

Working with Gatsby

If you’re just getting started with Gatsby, we recommend experimenting with a Markdown based Gatsby starter like Tina Grande. Installation is as easy as:

git clone https://github.com/tinacms/tina-starter-grande.git

cd tina-starter-grande

yarn install && gatsby develop

Then copy your exported WordPress Markdown into the content directory or point the wp gatsby-markdown-export command at the content directory.

Command Line Usage

The command line functionality uses WP-CLI to interact with WordPress. WP-CLI is easy to install if you haven’t already.

Once it’s installed, you can export content to a directory like this:

wp gatsby-markdown-export --directory=/example/gatsby-starter/src/content

All CLI arguments are optional.

FAQ

What does `Warning: The markdown converter encountered invalid HTML and could not convert the content at:` mean?

This means that the markdown converter couldn’t convert the referenced post to markdown, so we will just copy the HTML as it is.

I decided to take a chance on this plugin because I desperately needed to convert some files to Markdown so I could bring them into in my Obsidian vault. I backed myself into this nasty little corner by experimenting with Journey.cloud for a few months. I misread their documentation to indicate that it would be simple to export my content, but IT WAS NOT. I did not want to use any of the half-baked command line scripts floating around on GitHub for Journey to .md because I read comments and issue reports and I simply did not have time to deal with all the layers of stuff that I invariably run into. I finally decided to publish each of my notes as a draft to my own WordPress site manually. (I did this one at a time...there were only 60 of them or I might have chosen the command line option instead.) Then I used this plugin to export them in Markdown format, so I could add them to my Obsidian vault. This is not a fancy plugin and I had some manual cleanup to do, but that was a small price to pay. This won't continue working forever if no one is maintaining it, but it did what I needed it to do in WP 6.0.2.

Just what I needed -- to export all my posts and pages in a readable format! The formatting conversion is beautiful -- straight to markdown! Each page and post is its own file. Just great!
