The instructions say to “make sure Python is ínstalled” but the scripts use third-party dependencies (requests). This is not guaranteed to be available. I would recommend adding at least a pyproject.toml or requirements.txt and some instructions on how to provision the dependencies (uv is nice to use for this but then you have to ask people to also install UV).


Whaaat... I was 100% sure requests were built in. Thanks for telling me, will update the repo ASAP


Hello world! After spending weeks wrestling with migrating my association's decade-old WordPress site with no admin credentials - and finding zero similar tools - I built my own quick and dirty migration utility and open-sourced it. If you're about to tackle a similar headache, check it out and let me know if it helps.


Does it work with WooCommerce stores?


It will work with any content saved in wordpress posts, I haven't tried it with woocommerce.
