  New to wordpress…Do I have access to the full html code? Also, is it possible to bring a website built in a different platform (Weebly, wix, etc) and plug it into wordpress and be functional?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi horizonpix,

  Welcome to WordPress.com.

  You have full access to the HTML of your posts and pages. Simply follow these steps to do so: https://en.support.wordpress.com/beginning-html/

  Also, it is possible to import content from another blogging platform ( Medium, Blogger, Israblog, Movable Type, LiveJournal, Tumblr, Typepad, Xanga and more) to WordPress.com. If your platform is not supported, you may need to convert to any of the supported platforms and upload to WordPress.com. Check out a list of supported platforms and how to import: https://en.support.wordpress.com/import/

  Let me know if this helps.

  Hello there, just to clarify what @moodyblerd mentioned, you can write your posts and pages in HTML in the HTML Editor. However, you do not have access to the underlying PHP or HTML of your site’s webpages.

  When importing from another platform, be aware that only content (posts, pages, comments, media) will be imported. The theme or any other custom code will not be imported.
