    Hey,

    Welcome to the forum and Umbraco!

    To get started I highly recommend you have a look at the free videos here http://umbraco.com/help-and-support/video-tutorials/

    There's no automatic 'Import' into Umbraco, however in theory you can move any .NET site into Umbraco.

    Regards

    Rich

    Thanks Rich,

    I found the instructions below to make the manual process, not if they are right, I'll try, but the step 16) do not understand.

     

     

    Steps to follow:
    1: Take a backup of your existing site.
    2: Copy Master Pages to umbraco masterpages folder.
    3: Copy Script files to scripts folder.
    4: Copy css files to css folder.
    5: Now convert all the pages in the site to user controls, the process is simple.
    i: Rename the file extension from .aspx to .ascx
    ii: If its a web application then go to designer and change the class name as well.
    6: copy all the newly created user controls to usercontrol folder in umbraco directory.
    7: run the site and go to yourdomain/umbraco/login.aspx and login to the admin site.
    8: Go to the developer tab and add every control in macro section don't forget to Tick [Use in editor] property. [and you are half way there :)]
    9: You will find your master pages in settings section under master pages; if you don't you can add them with same name over here.
    10: In the same setting section Create a new document type and set its template to any one of the master pages.
    11: Create a separate document type for each masterpage
    12: In the Dcoument Type goto generic properties Tab and create a property for each content section of master page and set the type of property to rich text editor.
    13: Now go back to template where you have created master pages and replace all the content Areas with Umbraco page field name, you will find the Properties you just created in that list. Simply add them.
    14: Go to the content section add new content pages by selecting respective master page template for each.
    15: you will find a Rick text editor in each content area.
    16: Add a Macro to that content area. [And you are done]
