Hello Wix Community,

I hope this message finds you well. I am currently working with a client who is interested in creating a website similar to easystatuscheck.com using Wix Studio. After examining the source code, it appears that the original site is built on WordPress. The client specifically wants to replicate the functionality of the site and integrate a form on the homepage that allows users to check their “SASSA Status” by entering their South African social security number and phone number.

I have some experience with Wix Studio, but I wanted to seek the expert opinion of the community on whether it’s feasible to achieve this level of functionality in Wix. Has anyone attempted a similar project, or does anyone have insights into how we might go about implementing the SASSA Status check form in Wix?

Your advice, tips, and suggestions would be highly appreciated as we navigate this project. If you have any recommended tools, Wix features, or third-party integrations that could be useful, please feel free to share them.
Here is the link of SASSA Status Check website that I want to clone to the Wix Studio.

Thank you in advance for your expertise and guidance!

Best regards,
Mando

Dear Mando,

I trust this message finds you well. Having reviewed your inquiry, it appears that you are interested in replicating a WordPress website onto the Wix platform, including the implementation of a form for visitor data input and retrieval of results from another site.

Regrettably, direct cloning of the website onto the Wix studio may not be feasible. However, I want to assure you that the replication of other elements such as designs, blog posts, and content is certainly within our capabilities.

Should you have any additional questions or require further clarification, please feel free to reach out. I am at your disposal to provide any necessary assistance.

Best regards,
Umer

Hi Mando,

Creating a site like sassastatuscheck on Wix is feasible, but it requires leveraging Wix Studio’s advanced features. Use custom forms and integrate backend APIs for the SASSA status check functionality. For guidance or collaboration, check out my site https://srd-sassa-gov.co.za . Let me know how I can assist!
