Autotrader Migration

Dec, 2018 - Nov, 2019

Led a project to transition legacy dealership websites to a modern WordPress platform, successfully migrating 1,500 websites. The migration included mapping widgets, page templates, and implementing custom features tailored to client requirements. Designed and deployed an online portal for monitoring, querying, and updating dealership websites. Additionally, developed a web service delivering comprehensive vehicle reference system data, including OEM make, model, trim, and style information. This API was privately created as an in-house solution for Convertus Digital.

Migration Script

The script was designed to parse website data from an XML feed accessed via FTP, seamlessly map it to the WordPress platform's widget templates, theme settings, and core data structures, and execute the website migration using WP-CLI commands.

Technology used includes Node, SQL, AWS, and the Wordpress CLI.
