What gets migrated (zero-downtime protocol)
Products and variants, customer records, order history, WordPress posts and pages, and a 100% planned 301 redirect map so URL equity, canonicals, and structured data can follow the new store. Cutover is staged: extract → rebuild → QA → redirects live → DNS/cutover. We do not “lift and shift” broken PHP plugins onto Shopify.
No. CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619 sit in the PHP runtime, not WordPress core. Updating themes or plugins does not patch the interpreter. Your host must run PHP 8.5.12+, 8.4.27+, 8.3.36+, or 8.2.35+ (or a vendor backport) and restart PHP-FPM or Apache workers.
Shopify’s managed commerce stack is not PHP, so merchants do not patch PHP workers on the storefront. Apps and custom integrations still need hygiene. The ops win is leaving self-hosted PHP emergencies behind when you replatform.
A careful migration maps URLs, ships 301 redirects, and preserves content parity and structured data where possible. Rankings can still shift during any replatform; we plan redirects and crawl checks before cutover so search engines can follow the new store.
Typical scope: products and variants, customers, order history, blog posts and pages, media as needed, and a full 301 redirect map. Custom plugins and PHP themes are rebuilt as Shopify themes, apps, or headless surfaces—not copied as PHP.
Most fixed-scope replatforms land in about 2 to 4 weeks depending on catalog size, custom logic, and design. Commerce & Shopify Plus systems start from $550. Honest yes or no within 48 hours after a short discovery call.
Patch or isolate vulnerable PHP now if the site must stay online. Migration is the permanent choice when you no longer want to own PHP workers. ShuMuz Labs can triage emergency PHP work from $450, or migrate commerce to Shopify from $550.
