How to export a Lovable website to WordPress
Seven steps, about twenty minutes for a typical marketing site, no code required.
1. Export the project from Lovable
In Lovable, connect the project to GitHub (project settings → GitHub). Lovable pushes the full source to a repository you own. Download it as a ZIP from GitHub (Code → Download ZIP) or keep the repository URL.
2. Note the published URL
Copy the published address of the Lovable site (yourproject.lovable.app or the custom domain). The converter uses it to show the original next to the WordPress version and to measure differences.
3. Load the project in IQDesk
Open the converter, drop the ZIP or paste the repository URL, and enter the published URL. The analysis lists the routes it found, with forms and products detected per page.
4. Choose pages and decisions
Exclude routes you do not want, decide whether product pages become WooCommerce products, and whether forms become Contact Form 7 forms.
5. Convert and review
The theme is generated in the browser and installed into WordPress Playground. Walk through the pages: headings, images, forms and heights are compared for you. Use the AI fix box for anything that differs.
6. Download the theme
The ZIP contains the theme, your decisions and an install guide.
7. Install on WordPress
Appearance → Themes → Add New → Upload Theme → Activate, then open the home page once so pages, menu, logo, forms and products are created. Add titles and meta descriptions with your SEO plugin.
Common questions
My Lovable project is not on GitHub yet
Connect it in the Lovable project settings; the sync creates the repository and pushes the code. From then on both stay in sync.
The repository is private
Paste the URL and add a fine-grained GitHub token with read access to contents; it is used once for the download and not stored.
Some section looks different in WordPress
Check the conversion notes for that page in the review screen. Approximated items can usually be fixed with one request to the AI agent; unsupported application features are listed so you can plan them separately.
