Import and export

The Import tab in the dashboard lets you migrate comment data from other systems into Quipthread.

Format Description
Disqus XML Export file from Disqus (disqus-export.xml)
WordPress WXR WordPress export file containing comments
Remark42 JSON Remark42 backup JSON
Native JSON Quipthread comment export format

  1. Open the Import tab in the dashboard.
  2. Select the source format.
  3. Choose the destination site and upload the file.
  4. Run the import and review the result.

Export your comment data from the Sites tab. Select Export on a site row to reveal the export controls.

Format Availability
Native JSON All plans
CSV Starter plan and above (cloud only)

Use native JSON to move comments between Quipthread instances. An export is not a complete instance backup: it does not replace the database, account, and configuration backups described in Backups and restore.

Before exporting you can narrow the data:

Filter Options
Status Approved only, or all comments (including pending and rejected)
Date range From and to dates
Page ID Restrict to a single page
  1. Open the Sites tab and select Export for your site.
  2. Choose the format and set any filters.
  3. Click Export — the browser will download the file directly.
