What is the formula of the perfect CMS platform? That is easy to devise! Flexible and rich tech side + ease of use =your true CMS. This mixture will be a heady brew for your website successful management. Drawing near the root of this post, let’s look through Drupal and                       WordPress CMS platforms that become a bone of discord for website                     owners as the most powerful and popular website builders. It’s like a cold                         war where the top CMS software position is the main victory. 

You should know that Drupal is the developer­friendly CMS platform, thus                     the practice shows only tech savvy users are able to turn it to good                           account. Usually, when you run your web project on Drupal, you pay more                         attention to the technical side of management. You should be more                     dedicated to writing the proper code rather than to being concentrated on                       the process of creation itself. 

Considering WordPress CMS software, it is distinguished as the                 user­oriented CMS platform that allows its users to be plunged in the                       content creation process. You don’t have to fumble with the codes and                       scripts, its functionality is more plain and catchable. 

Passing on to the migration process itself, we would like to present you the                           tutorial on how to migrate from Drupal to WordPress – with no coding and                           need to be a programmer.  So, let’s start. 

 

Step­by­Step Guide to Drupal to WordPress Migration 

1. The first step you have to do is create your new WordPress site. Also,                             it’s recommended to install all the necessary plugins and theme to                     proceed with the further export from Drupal to WordPress. Then, visit                     www.cms2cms.com and create your account – provide your name, email,                   and password. 

 

 

 

2. After that, specify the URLs of your Drupal and WordPress website in                         the provided fields and select your CMS platforms types – Drupal and                       WordPress respectfully. 

However, in case you don’t have your new WordPress installed, you still                       have the option to try the migration with the automated service. All you                         need to do is check the corresponding field in your migration wizard and                         then, you will be able to migrate a part of your data to the test site. 

 

3. Now, you should download the connection bridge file to your PC, that is                           needed for data exchange between your websites. It will be saved as                       cms2cms.zip: 

● Extract ‘cms2cms’ folder  from the zip file to your computer. 

● The further actions will be done via FTP. You may choose any type of FTP client software whether it is WinSCP, FileFTP, FileZilla, CuteFTP, etc. 

● Within your FTP dashboard,copy ‘cms2cms’ folder that you have extracted from the zip file and paste it to the root directory (top folder with the index ‘.php’) of your current website and new WordPress site. 

 Now, your CMS platforms are connected, so you may proceed with the further actions of Drupal to WordPress migration. 

        

4. The connection bridge is already installed, so the next step will be to                           verify the connection between your sites by pressing the corresponding                   button. 

 

 6. Now, you may choose the additional options to make your migration even more complete and advanced.  They are: 

● migration of media files – all your post pictures will be migrated from Drupal to WordPress. 

 ● migration of internal links – all the internal links will be formed 

according to the SEO URLs structure of your WordPress site.    

● clear tested data on WordPress site – if you have some tested data on your new WordPress and you want to erase them, just check the box.
