Content Uploader Pro lets you export your Joomla content - articles, users, images and optionally menu structure - from Joomla 3, 4, 5 or 6 and import it cleanly into Joomla 5 or 6. No database wizardry. No lost content.
Most Joomla migrations involve manual database exports, broken images and hours of cleanup. Content Uploader Pro handles it all in a guided two-step process.
Export all articles, categories, metadata, users and images directly from your Joomla backend - no FTP, no phpMyAdmin required.
Import the exported package into Joomla 5 or 6. Articles, images and users are recreated exactly as they were.
Decide during export whether to include or exclude user accounts, menu structure and media images - full flexibility for your migration scenario.
What would take days of manual copy-pasting or database work is done in minutes. Tested on real-world Joomla sites.
Your original Joomla site is untouched. The export is non-destructive - test as many times as you need before going live.
Support offered in both English and German, with fast response times during normal office hours.
Preserve categories, metadata and optional menu structure so your imported content stays organised on the new site.
Run trial migrations on a staging site, review the result, and repeat the import workflow before switching your live site.
Two simple steps - export from your Joomla 3, 4, 5 or 6 site, import into your new Joomla 5 or 6 site.
Install Content Uploader Pro on your source Joomla site. Open the migration export screen and choose your options - include or exclude user accounts, menu structure and image files as needed. Click Export to generate your migration package.
Install Content Uploader Pro on your new Joomla site. Open the migration import screen, upload your migration package, and press Import. Articles, categories and any selected users, menus and images are recreated automatically.
Follow our Joomla Migration Checklist to prepare your backup, staging site, extensions, template, content and SEO checks before moving to Joomla 5 or Joomla 6.
A clean, straightforward UI inside your Joomla backend - no external tools, no command line needed.
Content Uploader is available as a free Joomla extension for basic article uploads, and as a Pro version for migrations and advanced features.
