A seamless migration process can only be carried out if you are using the following plugins –

Point To Consider #

  • This migration tool is only for migrating vendors, their orders, and shop settings.
  • Once their wizard is closed, then we will run a cron
  • This cron will migrate all the vendor’s order and their commission.
  • Admin’s marketplace setting will not be migrated using this. You have to do that manually.
  • The vendor’s shipping setting will not migrate as MultiVendorX Marketplace vendor shipping totally different than your previous multi-vendor plugin! Read this to know more
