How can I transfer a WP site with another hosting service to WP
-
I have a WP site made via another website platform. Is there a way to disconnect it from the other platform? Currently, the WP portion is only used for my blog posts and isn’t the full website.

Hi,
I’m not entirely sure that I understand what you are asking. Do you want to remove the WordPress/blog installation from your website completely? Or are you looking to make it into a separate standalone blog site?

Hi there,
Thanks for Clarifying. Showit is a website platform that we are not directly associated with, but I see they have built their service around the open-source WordPress platform, which is very similar to what we offer here on WordPress.com.
Because of this you can use the following info to create an “export” file of your Showit site: https://learn.showit.co/en/articles/4785318-export-wordpress
Once you have created that file and downloaded it to your computer, you can import it to WordPress.com by following the steps here: https://wordpress.com/support/import/import-a-sites-content/
Please note that because we are a separate service, importing your site in this way does not create an exact copy of your existing site. Showit uses design templates we do not offer on this end, so the import process will bring over all pages, blog posts, uploaded media, etc. But it will not import the design. Instead you can use the imported content to set up a new site design using our pre-installed themes found here: https://wordpress.com/themes/
Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions.
