How Do I Import a Custom Post in WordPress?

If you have a custom post you’d like to import into WordPress, the first thing you need to do is create a folder inside your WordPress site’s root directory called “Custom Posts”. Once you have created this folder, you can copy your custom post file into it.

1. The name of the custom post you’d like to import

2. The ID of the custom post you’d like to import

3. The slug of the custom post you’d like to import

After you have filled in these information, you’ll need to save your custom post file. Next, you’ll need to activate the WordPress import function by adding the following line of code to your WordPress site’s header:

// Import Custom Posts

Once you have activated the WordPress import function, you can upload your custom post file to your site using the following URL:

https://yourdomain.com/wp-content/uploads/your-custom-post-slug.txt
