Migrate from Magento to OpenCart: A Step-by-Step Guide
To start the automatic process of moving your online store from Magento to OpenCart using the LitExtension tool, follow these easy steps:
- Go to the LitExtension app website to begin.
- Create a new account with your email, or link your Google account to log in fast.
- If you already have an account, just type in your email and password to sign in.
Check the box that says “Remember Me”. This makes it much faster the next time you log in. Staying signed in makes it much easier to track your store’s transfer. It also helps you get fast help from the tech team if you run into any problems.
We also made a helpful, simple video that shows you exactly how to use the LitExtension app. You can watch it right here to see exactly how the whole process works from start to finish:
Step 1: Setup Source Cart & Target Cart
The first thing you must do is connect LitExtension to both Magento and OpenCart. This lets the system see and read the data from both stores. Once connected, it can move all your information over safely and securely.
When you are on the Migration Page, click the button that says Create New Migration to get started with the setup.
1.1. Connect Source Cart (Magento)
Find the section called Source Cart Setup. Pick Magento from the drop-down menu as your Source Cart (your old store). Next, type in the web link for your old store.
Different stores need different details to connect. The system will tell you exactly what to do after you pick your store type. Here are the three main ways to link your shop:
- Install a Connector File if your store is open-source and you can access your site files.
- Provide your API Keys if a specific platform hosts your store.
- Upload CSV Data Files if your store is broken, you want high security, you have tech limits, or you use a cloud server.
1.2. Connect Target (OpenCart)
Next, find the Target Cart Setup section. Choose OpenCart from the list as your Target Cart (your new store). Then, type in the web link for your new store.
You will do the exact same steps you did for your old store. Follow the directions to link LitExtension to your new OpenCart store using a Connector file, an API key, or CSV data files.
Step 2: Choose What to Migrate from Magento to OpenCart
Now that your old Magento store and new OpenCart store are connected, the next step is to choose exactly what data you want to bring over.
You can also turn on some extra settings to help your new OpenCart store run smoothly and rank higher on search engines like Google.
Select Data to Migrate
In the Entities To Migrate section, check the boxes for the items you want to copy. You can pick options like:
- Products;
- Customers;
- Orders;
- And many other entities.
To make it very easy and move absolutely everything, just click the box that says Select All.
If you have special data to move but do not see it listed, please contact the migration experts at LitExtension. We are ready to help and offer good advice on how to get it done.
Select Additional Options
Once you know what data you are moving, you can look at the Additional Options section to make some extra choices. Here are some things people pick a lot:
- Clear data on the new store before moving: This choice lets you erase the current data on your new store before the new data arrives. It cleans up the space so that your old and new data do not mix up and create annoying copies of the same thing.
- Keep the exact same ID numbers for items, buyers, and purchases: If you pick this, the special numbers used to track your items, buyers, and purchases will stay exactly the same in your new store. This choice is very important because it keeps all the links between your data working right after the move. It also makes it super easy for you to manage your store later.
- Remove HTML code tags from item names and groups: The names of items and groups in your old store might have hidden web code attached to them. Sometimes this code is messed up, or your brand new store simply does not need it to look good. This choice cleans those up.
If you have any questions or feel confused about these extra choices, you can use the live chat to talk to someone and get free help right away.
Step 3: Start Full Magento to OpenCart Migration
After you choose the data to send to OpenCart and pick your additional options, you are ready to start the Full Migration.
To test things first and see a small sample of how data moves, pick the Demo Migration. Read more about the reasons to try a Demo Migration first and learn how in our detailed step-by-step guide.
If you want to skip the test and do the real transfer now, just click Skip Demo Migration. Then, press Start Full Migration to begin the process.
Moving all your data might take just a few minutes, or it might take longer if you have a huge amount of items. The LitExtension tool runs on a special cloud server, which means you do not need to keep your internet browser open or stay online while the transfer happens. Plus, you can check how the move is going at any time by looking at the progress bar on your screen.
Before the move begins, the system will ask you to pay for the service. LitExtension accepts many different payment methods, including PayPal, Skrill, Western Union, direct bank transfers, and even cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin.
What to Do After Moving from Magento to OpenCart
The final step is to carefully check the final results of your move from Magento to OpenCart:
When the screen says “Full Migration Is Completed”, you should check your results right away. Reviewing your data ensures that every single piece of information arrived safely at your new OpenCart store without getting lost.
Check for Your Products. Most of the items you sell will show up on your new store’s front page automatically. However, sold-out items will stay hidden at first. To make sure those sold-out items moved over, check your store catalog or use your website’s search bar to find them.
Review Product Details Closely. Take a close look at the following details to ensure they are completely correct:
- The text describing your products.
- The images of your products.
- The different product sizes or colors.
- The short descriptions used for search engines.
After checking the front of your store that customers see, log into your OpenCart admin dashboard. Check the back end to make absolutely sure that all customer details and past order histories are correct and that nothing is missing.
To learn more about checking your store, read our Post Migration Checklist. It is a very useful guide created by our team of migration experts.
If you face any tricky problems while setting up, transferring data, or checking your new store, please ask for help. Contact the LitExtension Customer Support team at any time. We are here 24/7 to ensure your store move is correct, safe, and highly successful.
