Listdom Bridge Addon – Migrate Listings to Listdom

The importer keeps the original listing authors whenever possible so that owners remain associated with their content. Imports run in batches to prevent timeouts, with on-screen progress indicators, so you know exactly how many listings have been processed. The migration is non-destructive—your source plugin’s listings stay intact while new entries are created in Listdom.

Listdom Bridge is fully integrated into the WordPress dashboard. Simply select the source plugin, optionally choose a target category, and click Import . No manual CSV mapping or technical skills are required. After the import completes, review a few listings in Listdom to make sure details and images look correct. Once verified, you can safely deactivate the old plugin and continue managing your directory with Listdom’s modern tools.

Although the addon carries over most standard data, certain plugin-specific or custom fields may not have a direct match. In those cases you can manually adjust the listings afterward or extend them with Listdom’s custom field solutions. The goal is a quick migration path without the risk of losing your original content.

To prevent timeouts and ensure server stability, the add-on performs migrations in AJAX-based batches (20 items at a time). You can follow the progress in the interface without refreshing or reloading the page. Duplicate prevention is built-in: imported listings are tagged with unique IDs, so if the import is repeated, duplicates will not be created.

Supported Plugins

The following third-party plugins are currently supported for direct migration:

• Business Directory Plugin (by Strategy11)
• Classified Listing (by RadiusTheme)
• Directorist (by wpWax)
• HivePress (by HivePress)
• WP GeoDirectory (location-based directory)
• WP Go Maps (formerly WP Google Maps, includes map shapes)

Each of these integrations has a dedicated field-mapping routine to ensure the best migration accuracy and completeness.

Use Cases

The Bridge Addon is ideal for WordPress site owners who want to transition to Listdom without losing their existing directory or map data.

If you’re moving from Directorist to Listdom to take advantage of its advanced display skins and layout flexibility, Bridge allows you to bring your data in without manual entry. If you’re using WP Go Maps and want to turn basic markers into full listings with descriptions, images, and categories, this plugin makes that possible. It’s also a valuable tool for developers or agencies consolidating client data across plugins into one unified Listdom-powered solution.

The plugin can also be used on staging or test environments to preview how your data would look in Listdom before finalizing your transition.
