Hi

I have setup drupal on my site and i currently have e107. is there any easy way to transfer the forum posts and users across? I am not so bothered about any of the news of anything else. just these 2 things.

Dave.

It seems that there is no easy way to move users and forum from e107 to drupal. This is a really BIG down for drupal, as other cms have plugins, or tools for this

I converted from e107 with a python script that did lots of sql calls.
The script is here: http://prisoner34.com/e107ToDrupal.zip

The db name & passwords are stored in classes/allClasses.py
The file "start.py" runs the actual conversion.
It's fairly nasty, and likely requires some additional editing to work for someone else's install.
It will erase any existing users, terms, nodes, or comments (at the very least), so be careful.
It hardly imports everything, either--no user roles, statistics are bad, etc.

it looks like there's some other e107 to drupal scripts lying around this forum--they may work better than mine.
