ISSUES WITH WIX IN WORDPRESS
Wix sites are currently inaccessible in mainland China due to network restrictions. This is a developing situation subject to official updates from Wix.
Recommended next steps for Wix website owners:
Talk to Chinafy - we’ll scan your current Wix site and deliver a tailored action plan.
Consider re-platforming - Chinafy’s partner agency can migrate your site to another CMS like Webflow or WordPress in around one week. These CMS platforms are compatible with Chinafy, so your site can then be optimized for China in around 2 weeks with little to no IT involvement from your team.
If China is part of your website audience, leaving a Wix site as-is can result in zero organic reach and a broken user experience. Get in touch with Chinafy and we can clarify the fastest, most cost-effective fix for you.
Wix sites don’t work in China*. The primary problem Wix sites face in China is the failure to load critical components on the page from their asset domains.
Most of these WIX domains are blocked in China, and thus unable to deliver ‘normal’ resources including images, videos, and more. Domains that are not blocked face issues with slow delivery, and thus the timing out of resource load times.

Chinafy works with Wix sites on a case-by-case basis to enable the site to load as it should.
