  Hello! Is there a way to switch from WIX to WordPress and retain the look and design of the site completely?

  Hi there,

  You can move your content from Wix to us using our Wix importer.

  Import from Wix

  But you cannot move your design to us, as that design is built on a template created by Wix, for Wix. The code your template is built with is not compatible with the WordPress software, as it was designed for use only on Wix.

  (As Wix owns the code you’ll likely find yourself in legal trouble as well if you tried to copy it and use it somewhere else, as Wix is not open source software like WordPress is.)
