  Hi all,
  I have a website with SquareSpace but would like to transfer it all to WordPress as I want to make it a subscription site, where the subscribers will be able to download word docs.
  Does anyone know where I can find help to show me:
  How to transfer my website information from Squarespace to Word press and how to keep the domain name.
  How to add a plug in which lets me set up a subscription.
  Thank you for any help

  Hello Oliver

  Do you have lots of content on SquareSpace? If not, my suggestion is that you move your website manually. First, create your WordPress website, then copy-paste articles from SquareSpace one by one. After that, move your custom domain to a custom domain from SquareSpace to WordPress. Maybe there will be a little DNS settings

  But if there are many articles on your SquareSpace website, thousands, maybe an automatic method can be taken.

  Did you get a clue?

  Regards
  Budiono
