Export gutenberg blocks

    Hi,

    I have a series of pages (over 300) but I have re-created the setup of the site so these pages are going to be custom post types instead.

    So I need to create all the pages as custom post types so I can import a spreadsheet in to create them however my issue is all the pages are built using Gutenberg blocks so I need a way to export all the pages but with the data from the individual blocks too. My ideal scenario is each block’s data is in its own column in the .csv export.

    So where there is a block on these pages, it will be entered into a custom field on the CPT.

    Is it possible to do this (or anything near) with your plugin, perhaps with the pro version? The options available when customizing the export pretty much stops at ‘content’ but I would have expected there would be some kind of support for Gutenberg too?

    Thanks
    John

    You might be able to do this, but it would require custom PHP functions that parse the content to extract and return the block information: https://www.wpallimport.com/tour/export-developer-friendly/.

    The block information/data is stored in the “Content” element because that’s where it’s stored in the WordPress database. We may have different options in the future, but for now everything should be done via the content.
