    Hello!

    The website is in the final settings for the migration.

    I have questions about how to perform the website migration and activation process when migrating to Live Domain.

    How should I activate the theme in the Live Domain? Is it done before the migration or after the site has been migrated?

    Will all website features remain accurate when migrated?

    Thanks!

    Hello,

    XStore provides the option of 1 live site licensing and 2 staging site licensing for testing purposes per purchase code. Read more – https://www.8theme.com/documentation/xstore/theme-installation/how-to-registerderegister-xstore-theme-livestaging-websites/

    Should you have any inquiries regarding full site content migration, we recommend reaching out to your hosting provider for assistance. Typically, hosting support teams are equipped to handle such requests, as site migration does not pertain directly to the theme itself. We do not have specific guidance on this matter, though some of our clients have successfully used the Duplicator plugin for similar purposes.

    After completing the migration, please navigate to the XStore welcome panel, select ‘unregister theme’, and then enter your purchase code to register it again. This step is crucial to update the activation information.

    We appreciate your cooperation and are here to support you should you have any further questions.

    Best Regards,

    When migrating, should I do it as is to the live site and after that deactivate the license that was migrated and activate it again?

    Hello,

    We kindly request that you deactivate and then reactivate (via the XStore welcome panel) in order to ensure that the correct activation information is reflected on your account page: https://www.8theme.com/account-user/?user_id=32505 https://prnt.sc/Fx2QTuHsURjz

    But my question is if I deactivate before starting the migration or once the migration is finished, deactivate and activate?

    Hello,

    You are free to act at your discretion, as we do not observe an excessive number of activations for your purchase code.
