Need to shift all my posts from mingle forum to SMF

(1/1)

smartshari:
Hello-

I would like to shift all my posts/topics from Mingle forum to SimpleMachines Forum. Currently i am using mingle forum and i am in the process of installing SMF on sub-domain. I also need to keep all the usernames that i have on mingle so basically i need to shift all my posts and users to SMF without effecting anything.

Is there any tool i can use or what are the steps to do it manually?

SMF version: 2.0.2
mingle forum version: 1.0.33.2


Please help me on this ASAP!

Thanks,
Shari

Hello smartshari and welcome to sm.org!

At the moment a converter from Mingle forum to SMF doesn't exist.
Unfortunately write a converter and "ASAP" don't match very well.
At the moment I have no idea about Mingle, I should install it and take a look.
Convert the members from wordpress shouldn't be *too* difficult, but if the forum keeps the same structure of wordpress for the topics too, that could be problematic...I think.

Thanks so much for the reply, kindly let me know how to shift the posts and even how can i keep the users that i have on mingle forum?

Regards.
