SEARCHEN Legacy Content Migrator

SEARCHEN Legacy Content Migrator helps site owners migrate legacy page and post content into WordPress block markup without blindly rewriting everything.

The converter is intentionally conservative. It recognizes common legacy structures and converts them into native blocks while preserving unfamiliar or complex markup as Custom HTML blocks.

Features include:

• Preview converted block markup before saving.
• Convert one page or post at a time.
• Bulk-convert remaining legacy content.
• Automatically back up original post content before conversion.
• Restore the original content for any converted item while the backup is retained.
• Convert headings, paragraphs, lists, images, linked images, separators, and common Bootstrap-style wrappers.
• Keep inline links, strong/emphasis text, spans, and line breaks together inside paragraphs.
• Preserve complex/unrecognized markup as Custom HTML rather than discarding it.
• Cleanup tool removes all temporary converter backup/meta data after migration is complete.
• No custom database tables are created, so the plugin leaves no converter tables behind.

When the migration is finished, the built-in Cleanup Plugin Data removes the plugin’s temporary backups and conversion markers while leaving converted block content unchanged. Deleting the plugin also runs uninstall cleanup for the same temporary data.

This plugin modifies post content. Back up your WordPress database before running conversions, especially before using bulk tools.
