WordPress Migration to Oner Hosting
Move a WordPress site with its content, configuration and database intact. Test the destination before changing DNS, and plan extra care for membership sites or active stores.

Inventory WordPress, plugin and theme versions, PHP requirements, database size, media, cron tasks and mail delivery. Back up files and the database together. Protect wp-config.php and any export containing credentials; use a secure support channel for access arrangements.
Test without disturbing the live site
Prepare a protected staging copy and block it from indexing. If URLs need changing, use a WordPress-aware tool that handles serialised data rather than a raw text replacement. Test permalinks, images, forms, logins and HTTPS. Disable production payment and notification jobs on staging.
Preserve new content and orders
For an active site, agree the final sync and write-freeze window. Update DNS, verify the new destination and monitor logs and email. Retain a tested rollback option; restoring an older database can discard new orders or comments and requires reconciliation.
Frequently asked questions
Can every WordPress site move automatically?
No. Large databases, custom code, unusual plugins or runtime requirements may need manual work. Confirm compatibility and migration scope first.
Are plugin fixes included?
Not unless agreed. Hosting migration and application development are different tasks; request a specific scope and quote for plugin or theme repairs.
When should I cancel the old host?
Only after the destination, DNS, email and any final data sync are verified, and after you have retained required backups and records.
