FG Joomla to WordPress


Frederic has put a ton of great work and effort into building great plugins. The paid version is worth way more than the asking price. I have used multiple migration plugins of his for different platforms and it makes transition to WordPress so much easier.



Support is also phenomenal. I've rarely needed support, but when I do, they're fast to respond with an easy solution.
