How it works
How Does Our MODX To WordPress Migration Service Work?
For a successful MODX to WordPress migration, we rebuild your MODX website in WordPress, carefully map all content across, and thoroughly test everything before pushing your new site live.
Rebuilding Your MODX Website In WordPress
First, we’ll copy the design and functionality of your MODX site onto the WordPress platform. This ensures that your new WordPress website both looks and performs similarly to your current MODX site.
Content Mapping
During the migration from MODX to WordPress, we pay close attention to detail in content mapping. We ensure each page, post, link, and downloadable resource is properly transferred and correctly placed. We’ll also keep the HTML structure and tags of your original content the same. If something is tagged as H1 in MODX, it will be H1 in WordPress as well to avoid any complications.
Quality Checks & Going Live
After setting up the WordPress site and mapping all content, we move on to extensive testing. We check to make sure that the site’s architecture, along with metadata and internal links, has been faithfully replicated. Once you give us the green light, we’ll roll out your new site, causing minimal disruption to your current web traffic. Once you’re live, we can help you with ongoing WordPress support.
Our customers rate us EXCELLENT.

Pre-launch checklist
MODX to WordPress Migration Checklist
Perform the migration in a staging environment, a secure server space that doesn’t affect your live site, for a safe and orderly transition. This also allows for rigorous testing before the site goes public.
Did all pages, posts, images, and downloadable files make it to WordPress successfully?
Have all MODX functionalities been carried over to the new WordPress site?
Is the new WordPress site optimized for mobile devices?
Is the site architecture, including metadata, preserved? You can verify this yourself by right-clicking on a page or post and selecting “view source.”
Maintain the same domain prefix; if your original site had www, make sure your new WordPress site does too.
Ensure that all required marketing and analytics scripts, as well as third-party integrations, have been moved over and properly placed in the head or body tags.
