Developer releases wp-move, a WordPress migration tool that verifies its own export
The developer built wp-move, an open-source tool that migrates WordPress sites to Markdown and verifies the result against the original content. The tool reads posts, pages, media and taxonomies via the REST API, converts posts to Markdown, downloads hosted images, and maps old URLs to new paths with redirect files. Its report flags missing posts, media, image references or broken internal links and exits with an error code when problems are found. On a local test site, the developer reported complete post, media and redirect coverage, and confirmed that deliberately deleted content was detected. The tool has only been tested on theme test data, does not migrate comments, categories pages or themes, and its redirect output is untested on Netlify or Cloudflare Pages.
