Cloud site. If a v4 legacy plan transitions to v5 Creator, what happens to all the custom databases?

I can see our club using forum posts for things like meeting minutes (indeed that's how we did it in 2004-2010 before I was seduced by Pages); we do still however have around fourteen years of monthly meeting minutes as records in a database. Is there any way to convert those records into topic posts?

The database function would be shut down on the site, so you would not have access to them in any way. The database section in the admin CP would show with a lock on it, and all pages with databases on would show none of the database data. There is no way in which to transfer those items to posts unfortunately.

Appreciate the confirmation. I guess if they stay with IPS it's only 305 hand-crafted copy-posts for that one. Unpleasant but achievable.
