If you decide to leave.
THE REALITY
Content built with a builder generally must be rebuilt.
WHAT TO DO FIRST
Back up List every page using the builder Screenshot each one
THE APPROACH
Rebuild pages one at a time in the new system Keep the builder active until all are converted Deactivate it only when nothing depends on it
WHAT TO CHECK BEFORE DEACTIVATING
Search your site for pages still using it.
A forgotten page displays as raw markup after deactivation.
WHAT MAY TRANSFER
Some builders export to standard content, imperfectly.
Expect to correct formatting.
HOW LONG IT TAKES
Longer than expected. Budget properly.
WHETHER IT IS WORTH IT
For a large site, frequently not until a redesign is due anyway.
Combine the two.
WHAT TO DO INSTEAD IF IT IS NOT WORTH IT
Keep the builder, optimise around it, and limit its use on new pages.
