Hi All,

I'm fairly new at Drupal and my situation is as follows:

- I currently have a Wordpress site with blogs
- In my Drupal site, I created a custom content type for blogs with specific fields .
- I would like to take all the blogs from my Wordpress site and port it over to my Drupal site.

I was wondering what would be the easiest/best method to export the blog data from my Wordpress site and import it to my Drupal site ensuring that the Wordpress data properly populates the custom content type fields?

Would the Wordpress Import module suffice for this?

Any help is appreciated.

So I tested out WordPress Import Module and it works fairly well. My problem however is that I wish there was a way to map the data just as you can map the users.

For example, I created a custom content type on my Drupal site for blogs (not using the default blog content type) and I have a "Category" field.

I am hoping that there is a way to map the categories from the Wordpress blogs to populate the "Category" field in the Drupal custom content type.

Instead of populating categories as a text field the wordpress_migrate module will import the terms as taxonomies.
