Website - Taking Your Website With You

If you are canceling your InflatableOffice account, you may be wondering if you can take your website with you. The short answer is yes, but it is not a simple process. If you have never done a full WordPress website migration before, this is not something you should expect to accomplish easily.

This guide outlines what you need to know about moving your InflatableOffice-hosted WordPress website to another hosting provider. We do not offer any assistance with this process, and once your account is canceled, your website will be permanently deleted.


🚨 Important Considerations Before Moving Your Website

Before attempting to take your website with you, consider these critical factors:

1 Do You Actually Need to Move Your Website?

• If you’re switching to another booking software, your new provider will likely have its own website system. Migrating your existing site may not be practical.

• If you only want to keep the design of your site but no longer need any of InflatableOffice’s booking, cart, or inventory functionality, then migration may be an option—but it will require major modifications.

2 What Will Happen to Your Website When You Cancel?

• Your InflatableOffice-powered website relies on our software for key functionality, including:

Shopping cart and booking tools

Dynamic pricing and inventory management

Automated quotes and forms

• If you move your site and remove our software, all of these features will break and must be replaced manually.

3 Do You Have the Technical Expertise to Move It?

• Migrating a WordPress website is a technical process that involves multiple steps.

• If you have never done this before, you need to seriously consider whether you can handle it yourself or if you need professional help.


⚠ Things You Need to Be Aware of Before Attempting This

Before you even start, these are the things you will need to figure out—otherwise, you risk losing your entire website in the process:

🔹 Hosting & Website Transfer

• You will need to set up a new hosting provider that supports WordPress and Elementor.

• Your entire WordPress site (files, database, configurations) must be properly exported and transferred to the new host.

• If you don’t know how to migrate a WordPress website manually, you must research this or hire someone who does.

🔹 InflatableOffice Software Removal

• Your website was built with InflatableOffice deeply integrated into it—removing our software means:

The shopping cart will stop working.

Add-to-cart buttons will break.

Booking forms and automated quotes will no longer function.

Inventory and availability features will no longer exist.

• You will need to manually replace every single feature that was powered by InflatableOffice, or your website will be a non-functional shell.

🔹 Domain & DNS Considerations

• After moving your website, you must update your domain’s DNS settings to point to your new host.

• If you mess this up, your website will be offline, and you will need to troubleshoot it yourself.

🔹 Timing & Risk Management

DO NOT cancel your InflatableOffice account until your new site is fully working.

• If something goes wrong during the transfer, having your old website still active could save you from disaster.

• Once your account is canceled, your InflatableOffice-hosted website is gone forever—we cannot recover it for you.


🚨 Final Warnings & Considerations

🔴 This is NOT a simple process. If you have never migrated a website before, do not expect this to be easy.

🔴 We provide ZERO assistance. Once you cancel your account, we will not help you recover or migrate your website.

🔴 If your InflatableOffice account is closed and remains unpaid, your website will eventually be deleted. At that point, it cannot be recovered. For this reason, we strongly recommend keeping your account active until your new website is fully migrated, tested, and live. Once you’re confident everything is working as intended, you can safely close your InflatableOffice account.

🔴 Most customers do NOT need to take their website with them. That’s because many online bookin platforms use proprietary, closed website builders that don’t support external designs. Unlike InflatableOffice, which works with WordPress and offers flexibility, some providers require you to use their own templates or site builders — which often means starting fresh by default.
