Wix to HighLevel (Migration Guide)
FAQ: Migrating from Wix to HighLevel

1. What types of data and content can I migrate from Wix to HighLevel?

You can migrate a variety of data and content, including contacts (name, email, phone, etc.), Wix Workflows (recreated as Pipelines), product information from Wix Stores, form submissions and forms, website and landing page content, social media posts, and content generated by Wix AI tools. You'll need to manually move website design elements and some automation settings since direct export isn't available for everything.

2. How do I export contacts from Wix and import them into HighLevel?

First, log in to your Wix account and export your contacts to a CSV file. When exporting from Wix, you can choose to export all contacts or a specific group. Then, prepare the CSV by ensuring date formats are YYYY-MM-DD and using UTF-8 character encoding. In HighLevel, navigate to the Contacts section and use the "Import Contacts" feature, mapping the CSV fields to the corresponding HighLevel fields. You can also assign tags and lists to the imported contacts during this process (like "Imported from Wix"). Make sure you have created any necessary custom fields in HighLevel prior to importing the data.

3. How are Wix Workflows translated into HighLevel?

Wix Workflows, which are boards that display steps of a project, are recreated as Pipelines in HighLevel. A "Workflow" in Wix becomes a "Pipeline" in HighLevel. Wix Workflow "Columns" become "Pipeline Stages" in HighLevel, and Wix Workflow "Cards" are recreated as "Opportunity Cards" in HighLevel. You will need to manually recreate your Wix Workflows as Pipelines in HighLevel.

4. What are the steps involved in migrating product information from Wix Stores to HighLevel?

First, export your product data from Wix Stores into a CSV file (up to 5,000 products at once). Simultaneously, download the product media (images, videos) from the Wix Media Manager. Next, prepare your product .csv file for upload into HighLevel, ensuring there are exactly 29 columns. Then, in HighLevel, you must set up your payment gateway in HighLevel. Finally, you can import this CSV file to HighLevel and re-upload your media assets.

5. Since Wix doesn't offer direct website export, how do I rebuild my website in HighLevel?

Manual recreation is required. Log in to Wix and download all your media (images, videos, documents) from the Wix Media Manager. Copy the text and save any custom HTML/CSS code you used. Then, log in to HighLevel and use the funnel or website builder to recreate each page. Re-upload your media, paste the copied text, and add custom code to preserve the original design and functionality. After your site is recreated, disconnect your domain from Wix and connect it to HighLevel.

6. How do I handle Wix Automations during the migration?

Similar to website content, Wix Automations cannot be directly exported. Review your active Wix Automations, noting the triggers and actions involved. Then, in HighLevel, use the Workflows feature to set up equivalent triggers and actions, replicating the functionality of your Wix automations (email sequences, task assignments, etc.).

7. What's the process for migrating social media posts from Wix to HighLevel?

Wix does not offer a direct way to export social posts. You need to manually download social media content from Wix by clicking on "Your Social Posts" on Wix. For each post, note the scheduled date and time, caption, images, and links. Next, in HighLevel's Social Planner, recreate these posts using the copied content and either schedule them for future publication or publish them immediately.
