The "Import by URL" feature allows you to import the contents of a post into the Content Grader so that you can optimize existing content.
Why was only part of my post imported?
When you use it, our system attempts to remove the navigation, footer, ads, comments, and any other parts of the page that are not part of the actual content.
Because every page is structured differently, the system occasionally does not import everything that it should and it may pull in too much or too little content. For example, if you are a food blog and the recipe card may not be pulled in correctly.
We are working on improving the algorithm and the interface so that we're able to more reliably import content, but in the meantime there are a few workarounds to get the job done:
Workaround 1: Wordpress Plugin
If you use Wordpress, then using the Wordpress plugin can be an easy way to grade existing content without having to copy and paste different tools. To learn how to install and use it, watch this video:
Important note about the Wordpress Plugin: There's a known bug where content from recipe card plugins and other non-standard blocks are not being considered for the grade or word count. We are actively working on this issue and hope to resolve it in the coming weeks. (added Oct 4, 2021)
Workaround 2: Copy and Paste
Another workaround is to simply go to your post, then manually copy and paste the content into the Content Grader.
Workaround 3: Import Full Page
The first is using the checkbox marked "Import Full Page":
If you check this box before importing content, then it will import the entire text of the page, including any navigation, footer, ads, etc. You will need to remove any extraneous content yourself, however, all of the content should be imported.
