Migrate from Wordpress to Hugo
Yesterday and today I migrated my web site / blog from Wordpress to Hugo. It was less effort and pain than I had anticipated.
It was done with these steps:
Install Hugo (I am running on macOS using macPorts, so: sudo port install hugo) In my wordpress installation, I aded the “Wordpress to Jekyll Exporter” plugin and exported the blog posts to a local zip file. After unzipping this file I ran hugo import jekyll jekyll-export hugo-sothawo to create the initial Hugo setup for my site Added this as git repository to a git repository hosted at my web hoster Cloned the Mainroad theme from GitHub and pushed my clone to a private git repo as well, as I have some adjustments to the theme.
