Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
YouChew Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Hello, I'm migrating my website to the IPS suite and was wondering if there were any scripts that could assist with the title inquiry. I'm aware that there's a markup and infoboxes plugin, but a fully-fledged importer would really be a lifesaver. Any direction would be much appreciated. Thanks!
bfarber Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 I'm afraid there is no publicly available MediaWiki converter, however if you email sales@invisionpower.com we can look at your request and let you know what it would cost to build one. Alternatively, you could contact someone in the Providers directory for this.
opentype Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 I once converted a MediaWiki database and did it all manually, article after article. Not just because there was no importer, but also because the system of using Pages custom fields instead of forcing content and structure into one field can have lots of benefits. So that might be something to consider.

Thanks for the advice friends.
