Popular Questions About VirtueMart to Magento Migration

Not seeing your question listed here? Contact Us for the quickest answer.
How do I stop old VirtueMart links from breaking after migration?

Both migration options include the Create 301 Redirects Additional Option, which automatically maps your old VirtueMart URLs to their matching pages on Magento, helping reduce broken links for visitors and search engines.

What multilingual data transfers from VirtueMart to Magento?

LitExtension migrates select multilingual fields from VirtueMart into Magento, Products (short description in supported languages), Categories, and Manufacturers, rather than every translatable field across your catalog. Our team confirms exactly which fields apply to your specific store during consultation.

Are coupons and discount codes carried over from VirtueMart?

Yes. LitExtension migrates your coupon data, including the code, description, discount amount or percentage, usage limit per coupon, and validity dates, into Magento.

Should I choose Automated or All-in-One for my VirtueMart move?

Which one to pick comes down to your data complexity and how much control you want over the process. If your VirtueMart store is fairly standard with little custom data and you’re comfortable running the wizard yourself, Automated Migration is the better fit, with 6 free Additional Options included. If your store needs heavier customization or you’d rather not run it yourself, All-in-One is the better choice, a dedicated specialist and Personal Assistant handle everything, with every Additional Option included. Our 30-day money-back guarantee applies when a qualifying technical issue can’t be resolved under our policy.

What determines the cost of a VirtueMart to Magento migration?

Cost is determined mainly by how much data you’re moving, your total products, customers, and orders, plus any custom requirements. Pricing starts at $59 for Automated Migration, or $129 for the fully managed All-in-One service. Try the Pricing Estimator above for an instant figure, or contact Support for an exact quote.

Can my VirtueMart product options and configurations be migrated to Magento?

Variants are part of the standard scope. LitExtension maps your VirtueMart product variants and their pricing into Magento’s product structure, and our team reviews any other custom product options during consultation.

Since VirtueMart is a Joomla plugin, will this migration affect my Joomla site?

No. VirtueMart runs as a component within Joomla, and LitExtension connects to your store data through VirtueMart’s own tables without modifying your Joomla installation, templates, or other extensions. Your Joomla site continues running normally throughout and after the migration.

Will my VirtueMart store stay open for business during the migration?

Yes. Your VirtueMart store keeps running and accepting orders throughout the entire migration. LitExtension transfers your data through our secure cloud infrastructure in the background, so your store keeps taking orders while the transfer is underway.
