Switch from FluentSnippets without breaking a thing.
FluentSnippets and Snipfire both keep snippets as files, so nothing slows down when you switch. What you gain is an editor that knows WordPress, a test load every time a snippet goes live, importers, and device and WooCommerce rules for free, plus SCSS and team access on Pro.
Every importer is in the free plugin.
What comes across from FluentSnippets
And your old [fluent_snippet] shortcodes keep working, even after you delete the old plugin.
- PHP, mixed PHP and HTML, CSS and JavaScript snippets
- Conditions
- Groups, which become folders
- The "load as file" setting
Anything Snipfire can't match exactly is marked "Check first" and left running where it is, so you decide.
How switching works.
Your site keeps working after every step.
-
Install the free plugin
Snipfire notices snippets from other plugins and offers to import them. Your old plugin doesn't even need to be active: Snipfire reads its data directly.
-
Import
Copies arrive switched off in an "Imported / FluentSnippets" folder, with a note on anything that works differently. Nothing changes on your site yet.
-
Check the few that need it
Anything Snipfire can't match exactly is marked "Check first" and keeps running in FluentSnippets until you've looked at it. Snipfire never guesses silently.
-
Switch over
One click turns each snippet off in FluentSnippets and on in Snipfire, and test-loads your site in between. A snippet that fails is reported and left where it was.
-
Remove the old plugin when you're ready
Old shortcodes like [wpcode], [code_snippet], [fluent_snippet] and [hfcm] keep working, even after the old plugin is gone.
Or from the command line.
Handy when you're moving many client sites.
# See what would come across

Importing changes nothing until you switch over, and your old shortcodes keep working.
