Shopify Blog to WordPress migration
Move editorial content out of Shopify into a prepared WordPress publishing model without presenting a blog migration as a complete store migration. Products, customers, orders, discounts, checkout, and subscriptions remain separate ecommerce scope.
Self-service migration path
Start with your actual Shopify Blog data
Source and target connectors are available. shopify-blog: Available. wordpress: Available. Review system status and directions. Available migration objects and capabilities depend on the selected source and target systems.
Create an account, connect a staging destination, and let the app analyze the supported scope for this direction.
No credit card required to analyze the migration and run a free sample.
Scope
What can move and what needs review
The app confirms available entities after connection. Final coverage depends on source access, downloadable assets, and the destination model you prepare.
Confirm after connection
- Article metafields, comments, scheduled content, alternate templates, translated articles, externally hosted media, and SEO values
- Multiple blogs, tag-to-taxonomy strategy, author identity, inline assets, and destination permalink design
Separate or custom work
- Products, variants, collections, customers, orders, discounts, gift cards, inventory, subscriptions, and checkout
- Liquid theme, Online Store sections, apps, customer accounts, and commerce behavior
Before you connect
Access requirements
Use a staging destination and the least-privilege access supported by each platform. Do not send credentials through a public form.
Shopify Admin access
Provide the myshopify.com store domain and a custom-app Admin API token with the required content read scope. The API version and accessible blogs are verified during discovery.
Editorial inventory
List blogs, article counts, authors, tags, languages, scheduled content, comments, metafields, images, SEO requirements, and priority URLs.
WordPress staging
Prepare post types, taxonomies, users, media rules, SEO storage, permalinks, and an Application Password before the dry run.
How it works

03
Analyze the source
Review detected records, available entities, media, URLs, and anything that needs a decision.
04
Confirm the mapping
Choose where supported Shopify Blog data belongs in the prepared WordPress model.
05
Run a free sample migration
Move a small set of real records to staging and inspect the result before purchasing the full migration.

Current app compatibility
The site catalog records Shopify Blog as testing and source-only. The current source adapter is intentionally limited to editorial blog data and must not be treated as a Shopify store migration.
Shopify source path
The current app uses a versioned Shopify Admin API token and exposes configured authors, editorial taxonomy/blog containers, and article content. Access is verified against the real store before scope is approved.
WordPress destination path
WordPress receives approved posts, users, taxonomies, media, slugs, metadata, and source identifiers through authenticated REST or a compatible Bridge.
Shopify Blog to WordPress compatibility matrix
Standard covers the configured editorial entities. Review covers API, schema, or destination decisions. Commerce records are explicitly outside this pair.
| Shopify source | WordPress target | Status and boundary |
|---|---|---|
| Blogs | Categories, a custom taxonomy, or post-type routing | Standard with modeling: multiple blogs need an approved destination rule. |
| Articles | Posts or a prepared custom post type | Standard: title, body, summary, handle, dates, and source identity are mapped. |
| Article authors | WordPress authors | Review: match approved identities; Shopify access and credentials do not transfer. |
| Tags | Tags, categories, or a custom taxonomy | Standard with taxonomy review: normalize duplicates and resolve destination term IDs. |
| Article image and inline images | WordPress media | Review: download, validate, upload, and rewrite every accepted asset. |
| Published and scheduled dates | WordPress date and status | Review: publication and scheduling rules are translated explicitly. |
| Handles and blog paths | WordPress permalinks and redirects | Delivery artifact: preserve source URLs in a crawl-backed redirect map. |
| SEO and article metafields | SEO plugin fields or post meta | Review: only accessible, typed, approved values are transformed. |
| Comments | WordPress comments | Review/custom: comment availability and moderation data must be confirmed through the selected API path. |
| Products, customers, orders, checkout, and apps | WooCommerce or other systems | Separate ecommerce project: not part of the Shopify Blog adapter. |
| Liquid theme and store sections | WordPress theme, blocks, and templates | Rebuild: presentation and storefront behavior do not transfer as articles. |
Example Shopify Blog to WordPress mapping rules
The mapping contract keeps article identity, blog membership, taxonomy, publication state, media, and URLs separate from store data.
| Shopify value | Migration rule | WordPress result |
|---|---|---|
| Article ID | Preserve as source identity for reruns and exceptions | Stable destination lookup |
| Blog ID and handle | Route through the approved blog strategy | Post type or taxonomy relationship |
| Title, body HTML, summary | Normalize approved markup and embeds | Title, content, and excerpt |
| Author name | Match or create an approved editorial identity | WordPress author assignment |
| Tags | Normalize, deduplicate, create, then resolve term IDs | Taxonomy relationships |
| Image URL | Download, validate, upload, and rewrite | Featured or inline WordPress media |
| Blog/article handle and online URL | Generate final permalink and URL-map entry | Slug plus redirect requirement |
Separate Shopify editorial content from commerce
A Shopify site combines publishing with storefront data. This landing page covers the publishing layer only.
Inventory blog entities
Count blogs, articles, authors, tags, comments, images, metafields, languages, publication states, and public URLs.
Create a commerce boundary
Document products, collections, customers, orders, discounts, subscriptions, checkout, and app records as excluded or separately scoped.
Model WordPress publishing
Approve post types, taxonomy, authors, media, fields, SEO storage, and editorial workflows before loading articles.
Retain traceability
Keep Shopify IDs, blog membership, source URLs, and exception evidence for reconciliation and delta work.
Preserve Shopify blog paths without copying store routing
Blog URLs share a domain with collections, products, pages, and apps, so redirect scope must be precise.
Crawl article URLs
Capture blog and article handles, localized paths, canonicals, internal links, images, pagination, feeds, and priority backlinks.
Approve WordPress permalinks
Choose a destination structure that avoids collisions and distinguishes migrated articles from commerce URLs.
Rewrite article references
Update internal article links and accepted image URLs without redirecting product or checkout paths into unrelated posts.
Validate launch signals
Test redirects, canonicals, metadata, sitemap entries, analytics, and high-value landing pages after cutover.
Validate articles separately from the store
Acceptance reconciles the editorial dataset and confirms that excluded commerce routes remain untouched.
Reconcile by blog
Compare source, extracted, loaded, skipped, failed, published, draft, and scheduled totals per blog.
Inspect representative articles
Check body HTML, summaries, authors, tags, dates, images, metafields, embeds, and long-form rendering.
Verify media and IDs
Confirm downloads, uploads, rewritten references, source-to-target IDs, and repeatable reruns.
Crawl old and new paths
Test article redirects, chains, broken links, metadata, canonicals, sitemap coverage, and documented commerce exclusions.
Before purchase
Verify real output in staging
The free sample migration creates a limited set of records in staging. Check fields, relationships, media, URLs, rendering, and reported exceptions before paying for the full run.
Pricing
One migration, one-time payment
Package fit depends on supported record volume and complexity. Analyze the source first, then review the fixed package or dynamic estimate shown for the migration.
