How Does Our Cascade CMS To WordPress
Migration Service Work?
Rebuilding Your Cascade CMS Website In WordPress
As part of our Cascade to WordPress migration service, we will faithfully reconstruct your Cascade CMS site within WordPress, using a theme or builder of your choice — although we generally recommend Elementor. This way, your existing site design and functionalities are seamlessly transferred to your new WordPress site.
Content Mapping
Once the design and functionalities have been duplicated, the next step is content mapping. This entails organizing all your pages, posts, images, and downloadable assets from your Cascade CMS site into their corresponding places in your new WordPress site. It's a meticulous process, especially for larger sites with numerous components.
Testing & Going Live
Before making your site publicly accessible, comprehensive testing is crucial to ensure everything operates as expected. Aspects such as design, features, and site structure need to be verified — this includes reviewing elements like contact forms, metadata, and making sure all content and links are properly placed. After you've signed off the new site, we offer ongoing WordPress support to help keep you going.

Migration Checklist
- Your Cascade to WordPress migration should occur in a staging environment, a secure, private space not visible to your audience. This minimizes any risks to your live site, as all work is completed and thoroughly tested in this testing area before receiving final approval and going live.
- Has every page, post, image, and other content successfully made the transition?
- Does the design and features on your new WordPress site closely match those of your Cascade CMS site?
- Is your newly migrated site fully mobile responsive? If it wasn't before, should it be now?
- To confirm that metadata is correct, right-click a page or post and select "view source"
- Ensure the URL prefix (e.g., www) is consistent on the new site to avoid SEO complications
- Verify that you've relocated all necessary header or footer scripts for third-party services to operate correctly (e.g., Google Analytics, Hotjar, etc)
