Migration Best Practices

  1. Always back up your database before running any migration
  2. Use the built-in admin tool at SEO Forge > Migration when possible
  3. The migration tool detects installed plugins automatically
  4. Choose “Skip existing” to avoid overwriting SEO Forge data you have already customized
  5. After migration, re-analyze all posts to update scores
  6. Deactivate the old SEO plugin only after verifying the migration was successful
