Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted September 16, 20204 yr Anyone know if the current converter will accomplish this (including featured images)? Thanks for your help.
September 16, 20204 yr Community Expert Solution Yes, it should. The WordPress database doesn't change too often, so the converter is quite stable across the many WordPress versions.

Stuart, will categories in Wordpress migrate into Pages and create same categories there? And will WP users be migrated into IPB? I'm worried they may overwrite what's already in IPB. Thanks for your help!

I'm worried they may overwrite what's already in IPB. Thanks for your help! Yes, you can find out about what the converter supports here: https://invisioncommunity.com/services/migrate/#elSelectPlatform (select WordPress in the dropdown). If the conversion process encounters two users for the same person (based on email address) those accounts will be merged, it will not overwrite the existing account.
September 17, 20204 yr Author For some reason It quit on me after around 5 minutes of running and gave me an error code that said: The CSRF protection key did not match Looks like it pulled in around 310 of the almost 4000 posts and pages I had in my WP file. Anyone have any idea what caused the error or how to fix? Much appreciated.

September 18, 20204 yr Author Sure Ryan. Thanks Can you submit a ticket so we can look into this please? Got it all moved over successfully. The issue was with my .htaccess file having superfluous settings for memory limits, etc. Thanks to all!
September 21, 20204 yr Author One more question for you guys. I need to redo my import because I messed something up. Deleted the database that was created as a result, but now when I try and run it again it gives me a message that the migration has already been done before. How can I get rid of this message so that it allows me to run it again? Thanks
September 21, 20204 yr Author NM. Created a copy of database and changed the db name. Reimported and worked fine.
