Can Webflow export Blog and CMS content along with the rest of the code when uploading through FTP?

Webflow does not allow you to export Blog and CMS content when exporting your site. The CMS and dynamic content is only available when hosting directly on Webflow. However, you can export the static site code (HTML, CSS, JS, and assets) and manually add CMS functionality using another platform.

1. What Gets Exported?

• Static Pages: All standard HTML pages are included in your export.
• CSS & JS: Webflow-generated styles and scripts are included in the export.
• Images & Assets: Uploaded assets will be available in the export folder.
• Interactions & Animations: Webflow’s interaction and animation system is supported in the exported files.

2. What Doesn't Get Exported?

• CMS & Blog Content: Any data added through Webflow’s CMS will not appear in the exported files.
• E-commerce Features: Webflow’s e-commerce system does not work outside Webflow hosting.
• Forms: Webflow forms require Webflow hosting to work. If exported, you’ll need to replace the form’s action with your own back-end solution.

3. Workarounds for CMS Data Exports

• Manually Copy the Content: You can manually copy and paste blog posts and CMS items to another platform.
• Use CSV Export: If you need the blog content elsewhere, go to the CMS Collection and export a CSV file that includes blog data.
• API Integration: If you want to migrate to another CMS, you can use Webflow’s API to pull CMS data and re-import it into another content system.

Summary

Webflow’s code export does not include CMS or blog content, but you can manually export CMS data using CSV or the Webflow API. If you need full CMS functionality, consider Webflow hosting or using a third-party CMS after exporting.
