Excellent migration from Wordpress to Joomla

Impressive migration work they did for me. Besides good, it was all very fast from their support. Highly recommended for any CMS migration.

The product worked flawlessly and customer service is fantastic.

Pete Thiel

good tool

good tool "Wordpresse to Joomla" Pages are converted without Wp configurations like Elementor etc. Clean text conversion.

Philippe Bugnon

Worked for me!

I used Next-Cart to migrate 60+ blog posts from a Shopify to WordPress site -- and everything worked swimmingly, saving me many hours of work.

Websmithian Website Design

Super useful app, great customer service

I haven't been using this app, it's my developer. We've been doing a major migration from my old ecommerce site to my new one (90K+ orders, 30K+ customers, 3K+ products). This has been super smooth, and the Next-Cart team have just kept tweaking until it's right. Amazing value for money!

Vanessa

Good service with good price!

Happy with their service! Their support team is very responsive and helpful!

Vivian Kuhn

Great to Work With

Harry was wonderful to work with and did a great job! He was able to migrate a rather large shop (32,000 orders, 450 products, 27,000 customers) and even helped with migrating the custom fields and advanced features. Will definitely use Next Cart with future client migrations!

Ashley Hughes

Good Job!

Best service, ever

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about WordPress migration.

Should I select WordPress or WooCommerce for my online store?

Select WooCommerce when your store's product catalog is managed by WooCommerce. The plain WordPress connection does not enable product migration as source or destination. Other WordPress shopping-cart plugins have their own connections where available; choose the one that matches the store rather than relying on the CMS name alone.

What should I check before users sign in to the new WordPress site?

Confirm that user accounts are included in your migration and test authentication separately from imported content. With supported WordPress or WooCommerce sources, compatibility depends on the WordPress versions and any custom login or password-hashing plugins. Compatible native formats may work without a cross-platform Customer Password Plugin; other cases need separate review. Importing posts or copying author names alone does not create working user accounts.

Will WordPress post SEO templates remain dynamic after migration?

The migration reads Yoast SEO and Rank Math post metadata, but converts recognized title placeholders into text and removes some other tokens. It does not transfer the source plugin's dynamic template engine. Review the resulting titles and descriptions in the destination's SEO system.

Will WordPress posts keep their original authors?

Not automatically. The default import assigns posts to the account with user ID 1 in the destination WordPress site. Importing the original user accounts does not change that assignment. If author attribution matters, agree how authors will be matched and check the displayed author before publishing.

Why are some WordPress pages excluded from migration?

The standard page selection excludes trash, auto-drafts and inherited records, as well as WooCommerce system pages and pages referenced by certain page-setting entries. Cart, checkout and account pages should therefore be reviewed and configured on the destination instead of assumed to migrate as ordinary content pages.

Can I migrate the data myself, or can Next-Cart do it for me?

Available services depend on your migration path. Standard Migration lets you use the tool yourself with technical support. With Managed Migration, our technicians carry out the agreed migration. Custom Migration covers tailored requirements, with the migration carried out by you or our team as agreed. Data types must be supported by both connections; choosing expert handling does not by itself add unsupported data.

Can I try the migration before purchasing?

Where a self-service Demo Migration is available for your migration path, you can try it for free before purchasing. It transfers a small sample of supported data so you can check the result. Add-ons and custom work are not included in the self-service demo. For a file-based, custom or technician-assisted evaluation, contact us first to agree the test scope and any applicable cost.

How is the migration cost calculated?

Your data types and quantities determine the Entity Points total and the plan you need. The cost also depends on your chosen service, add-ons, and any custom work. Use the pricing calculator for an estimate; custom work is reviewed and quoted separately.

Can my current store keep accepting orders during the migration?

If you are migrating from a live store, it can normally keep taking orders while Next-Cart copies its data. The migration does not delete or change the source data. Plan the final update and the switch to the new store separately so recent orders and other changes are included. For file-based migrations, changes made after an export require a fresh export; an uploaded file is not a live connection to the store.

Can I repeat the migration or transfer new and updated data later?

Yes. Your license allows repeat runs for the same store and migration path for 12 months from purchase, within your plan’s data limit. Continuing the previous migration can add eligible new records without importing the same mapped records again.

Changing records already migrated is separate: the paid Data Update add-on can update selected fields where your source, target version and those fields are supported. Keep the existing migration links and leave target-data clearing off. It does not automatically update every field or provide continuous synchronization.

Can I upgrade my plan or service after purchasing?

Yes. While your license is valid, you can increase your plan’s data limit and upgrade to a higher service where it is available for your migration path. You can move from Standard Migration to Managed Migration or Custom Migration, or from Managed Migration to Custom Migration.

If you already use Custom Migration, you can add custom work after a review and quote. You pay only the additional amount, and your license expiry date stays the same.
