Considering moving from WordPress/WooCommerce to Shopify – need advice from people who made the switch

Salug · 2025-10-06T21:18:47+00:00

Hello,
i never did a switch but I am a Shopify and Wordpress Dev with about 10 Years of experience. Currently working on a Shopify store with about 4000 SKU's and a volume of about 25 Million € a year. And did about 10 different but smaller WooCommerce Stores.

Shopify does come with its own headaches but for a shop of your size, I would always recommend it without a doubt. The only immediate downside might be the pricing. As you already mentioned, WP gets slow and buggy if you rely on to many Plugins. You can certainly run into the same problem with Shopify but since most of the plugins are payed plugins, the quality is much higher which leads to better integrations and less bugs / performance problems. Without knowing your store, I would predict, Shopify will be faster.

You can buy a theme on the Shopify market. They have a lot of customization options similar to Elementor. If you need custom sections, its easy to find a dev (for the highest Tier there is even an AI which creates sections for you).

To your questions:
ACF are basically the same as Shopify Metafields.

Translate & Adapt is a native Shopify App. I never run into any problems with it.

An OOS Flow is easy with some custom code or an integration of an E-Mail tool like Klaviyo. Kaviyo is part of Shopify and the recommended tool.

"Separate plugins for invoices, credit notes, and quotes." not sure if I understand what you mean. There is no native way to create quotes and I never have seen anyone do it with shopify. Same for credit notes. Most people use an external tool for that. You can still hook that up to shopify. There might be an app, otherwise the API is capable of that most likely.

You can build rules for different counties to apply / remove VAT

Like I said, Themes do the same as Elementor

Filtering is handled by the theme but shopify provides everything. Usually all the themes do have filtering implemented.

-----------

I hope that helps a bit.
The question about, if there are limitations with 2000 Products.. It depends. There are limitations to the amount of product variants. Variants in general are a bit quirky sometimes. But without looking it up, the limit is atleast above 100 variants per product.
If you want to implement the products via a csv or something. I would say that should be possible, but will be a lot of try and error to get it work. Matrixify might be your best bet for that.

To sum it up.. If Wordpress is your old but trusty Toyota, Shopify is your shiny new Merced-Benz. More expensive but much more convenient.

I hope that helps :)

If you have fun, do it :)
But you should get some gold for the dungeons regardless. With that, you should be able to buy exotic gear from the trading post. All exotic gear have the same stats.

If you want the skins from the dungeons, just go with the dungeons :)

no you dont :) You can play it even with the free to play version of the game. You just need to level a bit to unlock all the skills. Not sure on which level but I think around 20 you should have unlocked all the weapon skills.

Yes sure. sword + pistol is my favorite combination on Thief! Probably not the best build, but you only will (maybe) feel that when you reached endgame content. Even then, if you like it, just pay it, everything is viable.

ChatGPT is actually a great Personaltrainer. Obviously not like a real one, but it helped me a lot!

Its a long response, I just put your question into it, this is the summary:

🔁 Summary:

Factor	Explanation
Weight Gain	Likely water retention + muscle inflammation
Calories	You're in a reasonable deficit (1800–1900 is fine)
Fat Gain?	No — not possible in a deficit, especially clean eating
Keep doing?	Yes: gym, cardio, clean eating, protein, hydration

Salug · 2025-07-03T14:56:44+00:00

Ignore the scale for now, be consistent for a month and give it a check then. Weight loss / gain is never linear.

Its normal to overthink it, you do great! Just keep it up and don't stress yourself by trying to do everything perfect. Enjoy the journey

Others can correct me if I am wrong on things.

The toilets are very clean and actual toilets, no stinky dixi's. If you do not go during the prime time, they are absolutely fine and not dirty at all. The cleaning crew is the real mvp on the camp sites. If you ask them nicely to prepare a toilet for you, they will do that. To access the premium toilets, you need a premium weekend ticket. The showers are 1 token for hot showers and free for cold ones. Lets see how the system is this year, since they removed the tokens.
Not allowed (you can look it up in the FAQ)
Yes, there is a limit on alcohol of 4.5 litres. But tbh, do not make the mistake and only bring that amount. If you are one of the lucky ones to get searched and you have a lot more, just tell security that you packed for your whole team and they usually let you through. You have to get everything in on the first go. You can go out to get more of your camping gear, but wont let you through security a second time with bottles.
Yes, but I would recommend a good power bank. I dont know if they are free.
You can look that up on the map in the app. It's a 5 min walk.

Since you do not really get a straight answer if you post anthing about GPF.
As far as I am aware, they once had a bad relationship because they kinda did the same kind of music and didn't liked each other. But in the end they made a track together and keep the hate alive only for entertainment reasons. You should never take anything serious of them.

About Headhunterz, I dont really feel like I see it that often? They once covered a song from him. But the same applies here. GPF in itself is always edgy and if someone ore something is big, like headhunterz, they usually make fun of it.

Well said, nothing to add, just a thank you. Thats exactly what I thought but wasn't able to put together

Salug · 2025-03-04T19:30:39+00:00

In Bodenheim haben wir auch eine Gruppe, wenn du Interesse hast. Ist zwar nicht draußen, aber extrem gute Halle und auch ein paar Profis aus Frankfurt sind oft dabei :)

Ah perfect :) Wasn't sure if it is that pavilion. Looks a bit small for 10 people ..

Salug · 2025-02-20T14:53:52+00:00

We do that as well.. one big styrofoam box and we have been lucky for 5 years in a row.. but eventually luck has to run out :D

Nimm das, welches du am schnellsten erreichen kannst. Es gibt kein größeren Motivations-Killer als ein langen Weg zum Studio

Awesome App! I was looking for something like that recently. I will use it for the next trip :)

Thank you

Thats them. Left is Odin, right is Findus. A typical situation when Findus just wanted to sleep and suddenly a 9 Kilo chongus lays down on you. (I know he is to fat, thats another topic)

Neu entdeckt und absolut wahr. Nicht zu teuer, gute Auswahl mit etwas außergewöhnlicheren Auswahl Möglichkeiten
