Weebly to WordPress migration

Rebuild your Weebly website in WordPress with the pages, blog archive, and contact flow accounted for. Norml reviews the source account, captures the agreed content, and creates an editable WordPress site. We check which material is present in the Weebly archive and plan the missing pieces before development starts.

What the migration covers

We first confirm whether your account uses the Weebly editor or a Square website product. Their features and transfer options should not be treated as interchangeable.

Pages and original assets

We inventory the pages, images, downloads, and navigation that need to survive the move. Where a Weebly archive is available, we inspect its contents against the live site. Missing or externally hosted assets are collected through an agreed process and checked in the destination media library.

Blog archive and comments

Weebly’s documented site archive excludes blog pages. The article and comment inventory therefore needs separate attention. We inspect the available source material and select a supported extraction or reconstruction route, with representative posts checked before promising complete archive coverage.

WordPress layouts and editing

We rebuild the approved appearance using WordPress templates and editable content sections. The scope includes responsive navigation, reusable page layouts, and the controls your team needs for routine changes. Exported HTML provides a reference, but it does not supply the destination editing experience.

Forms, widgets and legacy links

Contact forms, slideshows, search, and other hosted features are reviewed individually and replaced where required. We test form destinations and the agreed visitor tasks, then map changed URLs. Domain and email settings are considered separately so the website move does not change mail handling unintentionally.

What we need before the move

Account and source-content access

Provide the source account type, authorized editor access, available archives, original media, and domain ownership. Include the blog archive and a list of forms or widgets your team relies on.

Store and account boundaries

Store pages are also excluded from Weebly’s documented archive. Ecommerce, memberships, bookings, and payment services require separate data and behavior mapping. We agree those requirements explicitly if they belong in the WordPress project.

How we prepare the move

  1. Check archive coverage

    Compare the site inventory with the available archive. Record missing blog, store, or widget content and agree the transfer route for each part before the full rebuild.

  2. Rebuild and review samples

    Create the WordPress templates and populate representative pages and posts. Verify images, embedded content, navigation, and the editing controls with the content owner.

  3. Transfer and launch

    Complete the approved content move, reconcile the inventory, and test forms and redirects. Switch the domain under the agreed plan, recheck public pages, and hand over instructions for ongoing publishing.

Questions about the migration

Does the exported archive include every feature?
No. Weebly documents exclusions for blog and store pages and notes that components such as forms and slideshows may not work elsewhere. We inspect the archive and separately plan the features your WordPress site requires.
Can blog posts and comments move?
We assess the available source records and verify a representative transfer. The site archive alone is insufficient evidence. If an element cannot be extracted reliably, we explain the reconstruction or retention options before work proceeds.
Can you keep the current page design?
The live site can serve as the visual reference. We rebuild the layouts in WordPress and agree any changes to navigation, mobile behavior, or editing controls. A transferred page must remain usable and maintainable after launch.
Share your current website, the features you rely on, and what needs to change. We will review the WordPress requirements and identify the content, rebuild work, and launch checks your move needs.
