The problem

What makes LMS migrations risky

People move to Tutor LMS for its modern learning area, its built-in eCommerce, its course builder or its price. Moving is where the risk lies. Every LMS stores courses, progress and quiz results differently, and a careless migration leaves students without access, progress reset to zero and old links returning 404 errors.

We plan migrations around your data. We map what exists in the old platform to the Tutor LMS structure, move it with scripts we can run again, verify the result, and switch over with redirects and a rollback plan. We also move existing Tutor LMS sites to new hosts or domains.

  • Different data models

    Sections, modules, lessons and quizzes rarely map one to one.

  • Progress and history

    Students expect their completed lessons and grades to remain.

  • Payments and access

    Active purchases and subscriptions must keep granting access.

  • SEO and links

    Old course URLs need redirects or rankings and bookmarks are lost.

In depth

Mapping data into Tutor LMS

The target structure

In Tutor LMS a course contains topics (post type topics), and topics contain lessons, quizzes and (with Pro) assignments. Quiz questions and answers live in their own tables, not as posts. Enrollments are posts of type tutor_enrolled. Lesson completion is user meta and course completion a comment record. A migration has to create each of these correctly, or Tutor LMS will not recognize the data.

Tools we use

Tutor LMS Pro includes import and export tools for courses, bundles, content bank collections, enrollments, orders, progress, subscriptions and plans, which are useful between Tutor LMS sites. From other platforms we write migration scripts that use WordPress and Tutor LMS functions, so the result is consistent and the scripts can be rerun after fixes.

Orders and foreign keys

Native eCommerce tables use foreign keys between orders, order meta and items. Imported order history must respect these relationships. Often it is better to keep historical orders in the old system or as records, and migrate only enrollments and active subscriptions. We help you decide.

Cutover

We freeze changes on the old site, run the final migration, check counts and samples, switch DNS or routes, apply redirects and watch errors and 404s for the following days. Read our migration guides for platform-specific notes.

FAQ

Questions about migrating to Tutor LMS

Will students keep their progress?
Where the source platform stores progress in a usable form, yes. We confirm what can be carried over during the audit.
Do students need new passwords?
From another WordPress LMS, accounts stay the same. From SaaS platforms, passwords usually cannot be exported, so students reset them; we prepare the email.
How long does a migration take?
It depends on data size and complexity. Small sites can move in days; large ones need several weeks including testing.
