Why are my categories or products displayed differently on the target store after eCommerce data migration?

As an eCommerce data migration service, Cart2Cart is responsible for transferring your data accurately from your source store to your target store. However, we don't control how that data is displayed on your new store's frontend.

Differences in display often arise when your target store uses a customized theme or template. These themes have their own unique styling and layout rules, which can affect how your products, categories, and other data are presented.

To ensure a smooth and predictable eCommerce data migration, we highly recommend migrating to a fresh installation of your target platform using its default theme. This allows you to verify that all your data has been transferred correctly. Once the migration is complete and you've confirmed the data integrity, you can then customize the theme to your liking.

Here's why migrating to a default theme is crucial for a successful eCommerce data migration:

  • Accurate Data Verification: A default theme provides a clean slate for verifying that all your data has been migrated correctly without theme-related conflicts.
  • Simplified Troubleshooting: If you encounter any display issues after migrating to a customized theme, it can be challenging to determine whether the problem stems from the migration or the theme itself.
  • Clean Customization: Migrating to a default theme first allows you to apply customizations in a more controlled and organized manner, ensuring that your data is displayed as intended.
