- No, you can't import websites that were created outside

later on.
Moreover, if a user removes a page (or clicks the "Start
Over" link that caused removing of their whole site) in
SiteStudio, there is no way to import it from the published
site. You cannot just copy user's pages (sites) that were
created with SiteStudio from one place (server) to another
to make them work in SiteStudio again. The only way for
users to prevent undesired loss of their sites is to save
them with the SiteStudio Save feature that is available
in the Site Settings section.
