A Wix developer for Velo, fixes, speed, or a move

What we change on the site

Work stays in the editor you have. Classic Wix Editor keeps a separate mobile layout, so a clean desktop can overlap on a phone. Wix Studio uses breakpoints. Switching editors is a rebuild.

Wix Velo is page code, backend .web.js files, and CMS collections behind repeaters and dynamic pages. Use an app that already fits instead of adding a second one.

Stores, bookings, blog, forms, and members stay on Wix, checkout included. We set products, shipping, and the pages around them.

Fixes, Velo, speed, and leaving

To fix a Wix website, name one page and the wrong result: a form mailing an old inbox, a repeater blocked by permissions, DNS aimed at the old host, or a slug with no 301. Single and group redirects go in the URL Redirect Manager. A custom domain needs a plan that allows one. We read DNS before changing it.

Keep API keys in the Secrets Manager and call them from a web method, not from page code or masterPage.js. Another server uses http-functions.js. jobs.config runs in UTC, on the published site only. A data hook can reject a bad row. New files are .web.js, each method limited to the owner, a site member, or anyone. Old .jsw files still run.

Wix's own scripts stay. We can still remove huge images, extra fonts, video backgrounds, and app scripts on every URL.

To migrate from Wix, rebuild the pages. Wix does not export the design, and the site runs only on Wix servers. Collections export as CSV. The product CSV holds up to 5,000 rows and skips digital downloads. Contacts export as CSV, up to 50,000, and only the owner can run it. Uploaded images and videos come from the Media Manager. Wix and Shutterstock stock do not. We check the blog and note the gap. Export redirects before DNS moves, then rebuild them on WordPress, Shopify, WooCommerce, Webflow, Squarespace, or Next.js, and do not point stray URLs at the homepage. A domain bought at Wix can be locked for 60 days after registration, a transfer, or a registrant-contact change. We schedule around that lock and do not advise on the transfer.

How the work runs

Send the URL, the editor if you know it, the bug or the feature, and a date tied to a real event.

A bug we can reproduce is hourly. Velo, a rebuild that stays on Wix, or a move is a fixed quote after scoping. If the note only says the site feels old, paid discovery comes first, and you keep the writeup if you stop.

You own the account and invite us as a collaborator. Only the owner can transfer, delete, connect a domain, or export contacts. A standard site includes one collaborator seat until the plan allows another. Do not share the owner password. One person publishes after a preview, because two editor sessions overwrite each other. You leave with a short note on collections, key files, required apps, and secret names. Few projects run at once.

Editor, Velo, and where they stop

Day-to-day tools are the editor, the dashboard, collection permissions, Velo, the Secrets Manager, and the Wix CLI when a GitHub diff helps.

Titles, descriptions, indexing, redirects, and supported structured data live in the SEO dashboard. We edit labels, contrast, focus, and alt text where the editor allows. We do not certify WCAG.

A fit, and a mismatch

Write with a URL and a failure, or the feature in one paragraph. We can work beside your developer or take the agency sub-project. A Wix expert opens the editor, the apps, and the code before talking about a rebuild.

If the brief is still open, paid discovery can turn it into a defined feature list and acceptance checks. If you already have a developer or agency, we can take a bounded part of the work and agree how it joins the wider project. Share the target date so we can assess capacity and dependencies before committing.

The studio is in Vancouver, British Columbia, on Pacific Time, working remotely across Canada and the United States, with no second office.

Proof, and what helps a quote

Our owned portfolio includes this hand-built website and nine App Store products. For a Wix project, the relevant evidence is the actual page, Velo feature or repair commissioned. You review it in the editor and on the published test path; handoff identifies collection permissions, custom methods and connected apps so another developer can continue it.

Send what you have. Access waits until we agree to look.
