Hi,

This is a tricky request, because you can only import other Confluence Spaces that were previously exported as XML. There might be some ways to achieve what you are trying to do. Please check this Answer from a different community thread: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/WordPress-into-Confluence/qaq-p/679359

In short: Either you do xml editing or you reach out to a 3rd party vendor to help you with that.

Have a great day,

Tibor

I recently did this for my organization, not an easy feat. I ended up writing a web scrapper in Python to read the WordPress content and then made use of Confluence's REST API to re-create the content as a blog posts within Confluence. If the WordPress instance is using extensions such as Visual Composer it make this much more difficult due to having to parse custom tags.

This is an interesting solicitation, since you can import other Confluence Spaces that were recently traded as XML. There may be far to accomplish what you are attempting to do.

Hi Tibor ,

Thank you for replying.

I have 1000 pages it's too much to do that page per page . so I have to convert the XML file into a format that confluence will accept do you think that is possible ? i mean is that complecated ? ( I have no knowledge of web )

Do you need all the content...is it all up to date and you want those 1000 pages into your new Confluence space?

I'm guessing I would export the whole website to a static html and set it up somewhere so that it can be accessed if/when needed and start replacing content in my new Confluence space and just referring to the old site as needed.

we did the sorting, we have 800 artciles

Then Matt's solution (below) sounds like a possible option...if nothing else comes forward here

Hi Matt

Thanks for your response .

I can't develop a script ( i'm not a developer) and do the same thing that you did . i just have the XML export from WordPress so i need to convert this XML to a format that confluence will accept but i dont know how to do that and where can i find that format of XML that support confluence.

HI Jake ,

Thanks to you but i can't see the URL that you shared with me. i can't see.PNG

This is the correct URL: Solved: How to integrate with Wordpress in 2016 (atlassian.com)

However, my interpretation of this is: "how to include Confluence content within WordPress". Certainly not what you're looking to do.

Tibor's response below is also an option, comparing the XML format from WordPress with the XML format for Confluence spaces to understand what Confluence expects and then modifying the WordPress XML to mimic what Confluence wants. Again, not a simple solution.
