Description
This plugin moves your store data from WooCommerce into FluentCart, one entity at a time, in small AJAX batches so large catalogs don’t hit PHP timeouts.
What gets migrated
- Customers — deduplicated by email, from orders and registered users, with billing/shipping addresses.
- Products — simple and variable, with variations, pricing, stock, and featured image.
- Orders — line items, billing/shipping addresses, transactions, refunds, applied coupon codes.
- Coupons — code, type, amount, usage limits, expiry, product restrictions.
- Subscriptions — only if WooCommerce Subscriptions is active. Renewal orders are linked back to the subscription’s parent order.
- Recount & Verify — rebuilds customer lifetime value / purchase counts and coupon use counts from the orders actually migrated.
What does NOT get migrated (do these manually afterward)
- Product categories and tags — FluentCart’s category model differs structurally.
- Downloadable file attachments — re-attach under each product’s Downloadable Asset(s).
- Payment gateway credentials — reconnect Stripe/PayPal/etc. in FluentCart using the same accounts.
- Email templates — FluentCart has its own notification system.
- Order status history / WooCommerce order notes.
- Tax rate configuration — set up FluentCart’s tax classes and rates directly.
- WooCommerce Subscriptions “requires manual renewal” fine print beyond collection_method, and any bill-times cap (WooCommerce subscriptions normally run until cancelled, so
bill_timesis imported as 0/unlimited).
How it works
Each step (Customers, Products, Orders, Coupons, Subscriptions, Recount) runs as a series of small AJAX batches. A mapping table ({prefix}pxwfcm_id_map) records which WooCommerce ID became which FluentCart ID, so re-running a step skips records already migrated instead of duplicating them. A log table ({prefix}pxwfcm_log) records anything skipped or errored for review.
Run the steps in order: Customers, Products, Orders, Coupons, Subscriptions, Recount. Orders depend on Customers and Products already being migrated; Subscriptions depend on Orders; Recount depends on everything else.
This plugin does not modify WooCommerce data. It only reads from WooCommerce and writes into FluentCart.
Rehearse first
There is no dry-run mode. Test on a staging copy of your site before running against production, and take a database backup first regardless.
Requirements
- WooCommerce active on the site.
- FluentCart installed and active.
- WordPress 6.0 or newer.
- PHP 7.4 or newer.
Screenshots
Installation
- Make sure both WooCommerce and FluentCart are installed and active.
- Upload the plugin files to the
/wp-content/plugins/pxelcode-migration-toolkit-for-fluentcartdirectory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly. - Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress.
- Go to the plugin’s admin page (under the FluentCart menu, or its own top-level menu) and run the Pre-flight Check before migrating anything.
- Take a full database backup, then run the migration steps in order.
FAQ
-
Does this modify my WooCommerce store?
-
No. The plugin only reads from WooCommerce. It writes exclusively into FluentCart’s own tables.
-
Can I re-run a step if something goes wrong?
-
Yes. Every step is idempotent — already-migrated records are recognized via the internal ID map and skipped, not duplicated.
-
Is there a dry-run mode?
-
Not currently. Test on a staging copy of your site first, and take a database backup before running against production.
-
These are not migrated automatically because FluentCart’s data model differs structurally. They need to be re-created/re-attached manually in FluentCart after migration.

Changelog
1.0.7
- Fixed: variable-product variations with real, in-stock quantities (e.g. 5 in stock) still showed as unlimited stock even after the 1.0.6 fix. FluentCart’s purchase check only enforces a variation’s stock count when its parent product row is ALSO flagged as stock-managed — the parent flag was still being set from the raw (and often-off) WooCommerce store setting instead of following the same corrected logic as its variations. Both migration and the “Fix Stock” repair tool now roll the correct flag up to the parent.
- Fixed: “WC Migrator” under FluentCart’s own admin menu could 404 and bounce to the dashboard, because our submenu was registered before FluentCart’s own top-level menu existed (a well-known WordPress admin_menu timing issue). Now registered at a later priority so FluentCart’s menu is guaranteed to exist first. The “WC FluentCart” top-level menu item (separate from FluentCart’s menu) was unaffected and still works either way.
1.0.6
- Fixed: in-stock variable-product variations with a real WooCommerce quantity (e.g. 5 in stock) still migrated as unlimited stock — the 1.0.5 fix only forced manage_stock on for out-of-stock items, but managing_stock() itself returns false for every product when the store’s global “Manage stock” option is off, even when individual products/variations carry a real quantity. Stock resolution no longer relies on managing_stock() at all — if WooCommerce has a quantity on record, it’s now trusted and carried over.
1.0.5
- Fixed: out-of-stock products/variations migrated as unlimited stock whenever WooCommerce wasn’t quantity-tracking them (i.e. “Manage stock” off, Stock status set to Out of stock manually) — FluentCart only enforces out-of-stock when manage_stock is on, so this is now forced for out-of-stock items regardless of WooCommerce’s tracking setting.
- Fixed: variable products whose variations were entirely out of stock and hidden from the catalog (a common WooCommerce setting) fell through to a “no variations” fallback that stored $0 as the price and unlimited stock. Variations are now fetched directly (not filtered by catalog visibility), so out-of-stock variations migrate with their real price and correct stock status.
- Added: “Fix Stock” maintenance tool to repair products/variations already migrated before this fix, without re-running the full migration.
1.0.3
- Maintenance release.
1.0.2
- Renamed from “Store Migration Toolkit for FluentCart” (slug store-migration-toolkit-for-fluentcart) to “PxelCode Migration Toolkit for FluentCart” (slug pxelcode-migration-toolkit-for-fluentcart) per WordPress.org trademark-naming guidelines — the display name now leads with a distinctive term instead of a generic descriptive phrase. This is a new slug, not an in-place update: deactivate/delete the old plugin and install this one.
1.0.1
- Security/compliance hardening: replaced mt_rand() with wp_rand() in UUID generation, escaped an exception message that could carry unescaped output, and guarded set_time_limit() with a function_exists() check.
- Documented and justified direct-database-query usage against the plugin’s own fixed-name tables to satisfy Plugin Check.
1.0.0
- Initial release. Migrates customers, products, orders, coupons, and subscriptions from a WooCommerce store into FluentCart, with a read-only Pre-flight Check to scan for likely problem spots before migrating.
