How to download your content as HTML

HTML is the markup language of the internet and it can be useful in many scenarios - ie, you have a custom built website and want to import the raw html, or if your editor of choice allows you to paste html with some basic formatting. Whatever your use case, it's super easy to export your content in raw html form.

Do not select and copy directly from the article preview!

You first need to configure a base url so that we can construct your internal links properly. If you copy directly from the preview, your content could have broken/incorrect links and this could lead to SEO issues.

Open "Read mode"

After an article has been written, click on the "Read action button.

Input "Base URL"

Before you can copy/export your content, you need to provide a base url for your cluster articles.

The base url will be used to determine the location of all of the articles in the cluster, and is what helps us build the internal links between articles. It is important to provide the actual base url that the articles will have after publishing so that they can all reference each other correctly.

For example:

• Your website is https://caffeinated.club

• Your website uses the url structure https://caffeinated.club/[category]/[article-slug]

• You are working on a cluster called "latte art animals" with 3 articles:

  • "How to create a latte art elephant" with slug "latte-art-elephant"

  • "How to create a latte art zebra" with slug "latte-art-zebra"

  • "How to create a latte art cat" with slug "latte-art-cat"

• You intend to publish this cluster in a category called "coffee-art"

You would need to provide the base url: https://caffeinated.club/coffee-art

Machined would assume links for articles as follows:

• https://caffeinated.club/coffee-art/latte-art-elephant

• https://caffeinated.club/coffee-art/latte-art-zebra

• https://caffeinated.club/coffee-art/latte-art-cat

Click "Download HTML"

After you've provided a base url, the Copy button will become available - click on the "three dots" to expand the "Export" menu, click the "Download HTML" button

Your browser will download the file to your normal Downloads folder.
