Existing website into Elements?

Is there a way to bring an existing website or HTML pages into Elements (v0.9.5)?

Not without a lot of manual effort so the bigger the site you are wanting to transfer the longer it will take.

I have just done this with what was a simple nine page site and it was just a case of setting up containers in Elements and then copy and pasting the text from the website. Obviously you then need to play around and get things looking how you want and adding images etc.

I am glad I went through the process because I learnt how Elements works and ended up with a much better looking site than I had made in RW.

Thanks.

Seem like that should be a feature of Elements.

I am sure it would be if it could be but it’s clearly not an easy thing to do.

I think the problem would be the existing websites code would need to be converted to Tailwinds code. Not an easy task, if even possible, I assume
