Wordpress 2.5 to Drupal 5.x and 6.x utility program.
superjacent - May 27, 2008 - 08:22
I've just released (or more precisely - updated my 5.x converter) a Wordpress 2.5 to Drupal 6.x converter. The user now has a choice of importing into Drupal 5.x or 6.x. Quite a few other features or improvements have been included and for further check here http://prime357.org/node/95.
this is great but... I need
this is great but...
I need to miograte users, their links to the topics, respect unpublished content, the works...
I need Wp2Drupal for wp2.5
Is there any way you could get this to work like wp2drupal?
I'm not familiar with
I'm not familiar with wp2drupal so I can't make any comparisons.
Users are migrated and they are linked to their respective posts/comments. If that is not happening please let me know.
I'm unsure re "respect unpublished content, the works..." what you actually mean by that. As of the latest update, the user has the option to determine which posts are published or unpublished according to the existing Wordpress status types (draft, inherit etc.).

and catagories?Are they
and catagories?
Are they migrated?
BTW, if some content is unpublished on wp, will it still be unpublished on drupal
Categories are migrated
Categories are migrated (along with Tags).
You have the option of deciding which posts are published or unpublished based on the Wordpress status. It's better explained here along with screenshots.

(the name "onlyregiteredfordownload...heehee") should be a subttle hint ;)
Ok, i tried it out...
Ok, i tried it out...
Very good... but...
On a major move (took your program half an hour) catagory hierarchy got screwd up big time, as in, every catagory that used to be a sub catagory, now doesn't exist...
It does in the database, but not being hooked up to the vocab means it never shows up...
Its like your program inserted random numbers in places it definitly shouldent have... (term parent table)
1. Catagory hierarchy needs to be fixed (please fix!)
2. recent posts need to be fixed (leave, wordpress didn't make titles)
3. users need to be made to be registered when they did on wp not shure what that was, could be wp glitch (leave, users on wp didn't have a registered time, so they just get one assigned...)
your program is great, truly great, but i HAVE to have the catagories working, otherwise its just a big waste of time...
please help

Thanks a LOT for the update,
Thanks a LOT for the update, My fixing script is now a whole lot shorter, btw, does this address the issue of every single post being invisible?
Look at the node_access table after importing and you will see that unless the user is an administrator, they will see nothing...
Please fix this too if you have a chance, I will look into it too...
Found it: Just run this for every node...
INSERT INTO node_access VALUES("{nid}", 0, "all", 1, 0, 0)I think... not actually sure what this table does, so plz ask around first

WpDrupal for Mac OS X
I installed version 1.04 for Mac OS X, was able to connect to both my Wordpress and Drupal databases, but after selecting all options (# of records, format options, assigning Wordpress -> Drupal content types, etc) the Import button does not activate (stays greyed out). Is there a hitch somewhere to get the Import button to activate? When I click on the button 'Analyze Wordpress', I see my Wordpress info.
Thanks in advance!
I've created a thread here
I've created a thread here hopefully get some Mac users to confirm or respond. Unfortunately, I can't test the Mac version. I'll send a couple of emails out to some known Mac users of the converter as well, get their opinion.

Can this be done locally?
I don't think this will work on HostMonster since we used shared IPs.
Couldn't I just download a copy of my Wordpress and Drupal directories and have this program run on them locally?
Thanks

Yes, you can, but MySql must
Yes, you can, but MySql must be installed. This is something you should have anyway, helps heaps with testing your site before you actually commit changes to your live site, regardless of whether you are importing or not.

I would love this wouldn't
I would love this wouldn't be a locally executable app, but some sort of online app, so no problems with OS version arise.
Currently, I'm using Windows 98 on a friend's house and can't use it because of an error...
I've posted the details on the site.
There are PHP or online type
There are PHP or online type modules available and this app is just an alternative method. Unfortunately Windows 98 is not accounted for. For Windows version it all starts from 2000.
