Q:Hey, Nathanial. How did you import from Squarespace to Tumblr? I am thinking about shifting my Squarespace blog (www.mentalshavings.com) to Tumblr, but I would want to take my content with me. Best, Frank
Well auto importing new Squarespace blog posts into Tumblr is easy via the RSS import feature (this is what I do). However I’m not totally sure how/if you can import a full blog archive.
Your best bet would be to try something like this Yahoo Pipes setup that changes all your blog’s feed publish dates to tomorrow. You’d then try importing the Yahoo Pipes exported RSS feed using Tumblr’s import feature. I haven’t tested this myself, and the downside would be the dates get all messed-up.
The other workaround would be to export your Squarespace blog into an XML file, and find a way to import that into a 3rd party blog like WordPress or Blogger and then use a 3rd party Tumblr import tool like this that I found on Google.
Wish I had better suggestions. Good luck.
