I am trying to transfer a site that is currently on a plan to another account
It says I have to downgrade to starter
Will I loose any of my CMS/content if I do this and then the account I transfer it to upgrades it back to a paid plan?
I’ve read here that no you won’t, but I haven’t verified it personally.
What I’d recommend is-
- Duplicate the site, the new site will be start, the existing site will still be hosted
- Transfer the duplicate
- Have the client setup the hosting plan on their new workspace ( or you do it if you’re a guest there )
- Publish the new site and verify the site’s operation on webflow.io. Make sure all your data is there.
- As a last step, remove the domain from your site, and add it to theirs, verify it’s live and working, then delete the hosting plan on your version.
That will minimize downtime ( to 30 sec or less ) AND solve your concerns about data disappearing.
