Jukebox is a podcast which is dedicated to all things WordPress. The people, the events, the plugins, the blocks, the themes, and in this case, migrating to blocks at an enterprise level and what’s involved in moving from a different CMS into WordPress.

So on the podcast today, we have K. Adam White, or K. Adam for short. K. Adam is the principal engineer at Human Made, an enterprise WordPress consultancy. He’s been involved with WordPress for almost 20 years, attending his first WordCamp in Boston back in 2011, and has contributed to WordPress Core and the broader open source ecosystem. Human Made is known for delivering complex projects, think high stakes, no room for mistakes? From global brands moving to WordPress.
This time around, K. Adam delivered a presentation at WordCamp US focused on a crucial topic for anyone modernising their site, migrating to blocks. Human Made has been all in on the block editor since the Gutenberg plugin days, and the team now specialises in large scale migrations from other content management systems like Sitecore, as well as from other WordPress page builders.
Our conversation focused on the technical and editorial challenges of moving tens, or hundreds, of thousands of posts into the world
