Switching from a Joomla VirtueMart store to PrestaShop requires transferring a significant amount of structured data. This open-source migration script handles that process by exporting your VirtueMart data into CSV files that can then be imported into PrestaShop using its built-in import tool, reducing the manual effort involved in a platform switch.
- Exports categories, products (including feature attributes such as dimensions), manufacturers, and customer records including addresses.
- Migrates product comments alongside the core catalogue data.
- Automatically emails new passwords to migrated customer accounts.
This script is aimed at developers or technically experienced store owners undertaking a one-time platform migration from Joomla VirtueMart to PrestaShop. As an early alpha release from 2011, it should be treated as a starting point or reference implementation rather than a production-ready tool; the source code is publicly available on GitHub for anyone who needs to adapt or modernise it.
