How to read this
What can stay, and what needs work?
Your content can stay in WordPress. The forms, layouts, and other features visitors use may need to be connected or rebuilt. Even when we reuse content or settings, we still test how they work on the new site.
These are planning assessments, not compatibility certifications or a list of integrations we have tested on your site. We check the installed versions and required behavior before quoting. List last reviewed .
Use the project brief to list your essential features and what each must do. If you have not decided whether to rebuild, start with the WordPress architecture decision guide.

Content and fields

| Posts, pages, custom content types, and categories | Can be reused | Your content stays in WordPress. We check that the new site can read the posts, pages, and custom content it needs. |
| Media library | Can be reused | Your team keeps using the media library. We set up images for the new site's layouts and screen sizes. |
