Needed an app to transfer my Wordpress blog over to Shopify and they have a great one-time option just for transferring. Exactly what I needed. Had trouble when I could only import 10 posts so I thought it was limited in the app. They followed up with me completely unprompted and helped me solve the issue (which ended up being my RSS settings on Wordpress) Great app and great customer service. If you're looking for a way to transfer a blog over to Shopify, this is the one.
1. BlogFeeder is an awesome app in general. If you're looking to import or synchronize a blog, look no further than this app! Especially Wordpress, which can be a pain to mirgate otherwise.
2. The customer service for BlogFeeder? Awesome. The creators of this app genuinely care about their users and about their product. If you have any problems with the app, reaching out to ShopStorm is a surefire way to solve them! They are smart, quick to answer, and kind.
Thanks again!
WOW I love it! My posts came over super fast :) Totally blown away .. I thought it was going to be an all day thing - love the page breaks .. Thanks so much!
Just updated a post from over a year ago on Blogger .. took less than 5 minutes for it to update in my shop <3 Sooo clever <3
I wish I had known how simple this was I would have signed up last year! Only a day old - but looks like it's been there forever! http://dollsanddaydreams.com/blogs/news
Thanks Justin!
I do not recommend using this app AT ALL. We purchased the one time solution for moving our blogs from wordpress to shopify. When we ran it, it only moved 10 out of 100 blogs. It took three days for support to get back to us. When we finally got some advice, we went to try to make the fixes and our 1 time transfer was expired. We had to contact them again, but there is no weekend support, so we are now waiting again for days just to try to get them to turn it back on.... awful... and super frustrating.
This app was really buggy for me and didn't work on Safari. At first it only imported 10 articles, but after contacting support they told me to change some default settings in Wordpress and it was able to import all my articles. It's too bad those setting changes weren't in the instructions. It was a nailbiter, because I only had 72 hour window that I had to pay up-front with the app and the support case took a day or two, although support was pleasant to work with. None of the imported articles have any pictures even though Wordpress hosts them all, so I don't fully get why I would want this app at all.
Hi,
I am sorry you had a bad 1st experience while importing the posts. From your description it looks like you missed setting things up correctly.
When you have a moment can you confirm one setting in your WordPress admin for me? WordPress sites set their RSS feed syndication settings to only send 10 posts by default.
To update your RSS settings, go to Settings > Reading and change 'Syndication feeds show the most recent' to allow all of your posts in your feed (BlogFeeder needs access to all posts to import them). At the same time, you may want to ensure that you allow the full text in your RSS feed.
Update:
On checking our logs I can see you have 300 posts already imported. Would you mind letting us know if you require further assistance?
This app is exactly what I need to keep our customers up to date with the latest going on at our store, but keeping them within the confides of our store. Support for issues has been fast and patient! One thing I don't like is the way each article is an item under "collections". This then means the article will show up when your search for a term under our store.....for example if you search T-shirt, it will also display articles with T-shirt contained in it, along side products.
Otherwise, works well.................UPDATE: Since writing the above, I was contacted by Justin in support who helped me solve the problem right away....even though it was a Shopify issue. Justin went ahead and modified the code to fix the issue. Best customer service I've had from any developer. Outstanding.
We were very happy with the service but, recently the sync process for blogs has started taking over a half hour? It's not very convenient.
www.KingCobraofFlorida.com - great blog importing tool you can see it in action here, only thing missing is photos/images dont seem to be imported
This is definitely helpful, but there is a long time in the delay of posting on wordpress...and then it showing up in shopify. Wish that would improve.
Love the idea of it and how it works... but it takes FOREVER to sync! If I have an upload I need to do in less than 30 minutes, forget about it. Not sure why this happens.
