Can I perform SEO migration from OpenCart to WooCommerce?

Yes, you can migrate SEO URLs from OpenCart to WooCommerce using Cart2Cart by selecting the “Migrate categories and products SEO URLs” additional option during your data migration process.

Before migrating to WooCommerce, ensure the SEO URLs feature is enabled in your OpenCart store. To do this, log in to your OpenCart Admin area, navigate to System -> Server, find “Use SEO URLs” and check the “Yes” box.

Once enabled, the SEO Keyword field will appear in the settings of your products and categories. This is the data that will be transferred when you choose the “Migrate categories and products SEO URLs” additional option with Cart2Cart.

How Will My URLs Look After the OpenCart to WooCommerce Data Migration?

Let's say you have a product named "Apple Cinema 30" in your OpenCart store with the following URL:

http://opencart-store.com/apple-cinema-30

After migrating to WooCommerce with the “Migrate SEO URLs” option, the URL structure for the "Apple Cinema 30" product will be:

http://woocommerce-store.com/product/apple-cinema-30

Can I Preserve the Exact Same URL Structure After the Data Migration?

Due to the way WordPress CMS and WooCommerce are structured, it's not possible to maintain the exact same URL structure as your OpenCart store. WooCommerce automatically adds "/product/" to product URLs, as shown in the example above:

http://woocommerce-store.com/product/apple-cinema-30

However, you can customize the URL structure to some extent by logging into your WordPress admin panel and navigating to Settings -> Permalinks.

For instance, you can enter /shop in the Custom Base field, which would change your product URLs to:

http://woocommerce-store.com/shop/apple-cinema-30

Remember to click Save Changes after making any adjustments.
