A step-by-step guide for migrating a blog from WordPress to Hashnode. Why did I switch from WordPress to Hashnode? Currently, my portfolio website and blog are on WordPress. It's been really great for search engine optimization, and the experience wi...

So far, people are very quickly migrating their blogs from WordPress to Hashnode. I am just wondering hashnode will allow some kind of monetization.

Hi 👋 welcome to Hashnode!

We are going to revamp our APIs and document them properly this week.

I think it took some time to issue the certs because there were too many failed validations for your domain since Cloudflare was not bypassed after adding DNS records. We are making some changes to our platform which will help us catch these mistakes early on and prompt our users to correct the config.

Sandeep Panda thanks for checking. That's bizarre. I'll see if it clears up after some time. Thanks for looking into it.

The reasoning re: SSL makes perfect sense. I always use it but usually via Cloudflare. It makes sense to protect users who don't use a CDN like Cloudflare.

Thanks! Really excited about this product!

Hey Tina Just checking - is the problem resolved? If not, happy to dig deeper. :)

Sandeep Panda Thanks for checking in. It looks like if I copy/paste it multiple times, it works subsequent times. Perhaps it's a redirection or timeout issue. I've only tested on Facebook. It's sufficient for now, I'll just keep it in mind to try multiple times if it doesn't show the first time. Thanks for verifying.

Welcome to Hashnode. I can't wait to read your articles.

Thank you Edidiong Asikpo! ❤️

This is really helpful for the community. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Vamsi Rao! I was looking for such an article when I started and didn’t find one so I thought I’d make one after figuring it out! 🙃

This is really amazing, I'm really glad to see that you're happy with the migration to Hashnode 🤩

Thank you for sharing the process. I'll be happy to get some feedback on your experience so far and some functionalities you think we should add to our APIs.

Thanks for the feedback Tina Holly!

We're revamping the APIs and we'll support backdating posts in the next release. Stay tuned :)

Bolaji Ayodeji that’s so great to hear!

Also adding the ability to query my posts and get more than just 6 items. Pagination isn’t documented in the GraphQL API for the query user —> publications —> posts. Once your team adds support for historical post dates in the API, I’d like to query my Hashnode posts, match them with my old post data, and update the published date so that it’s accurate.

I've noted this Tina Holly, once we release the new version, we'll ensure to document officially.

Thank you once again :)
