9 months after the last one, here is the new version (v0.9) of my e107 to Wordpress import plug-in !
Change log:
- “One-click migration” instead of multiple step process (more user-friendly),
- Better error management (a must-have for precise bug reports),
- Replace all links to old content with permalinks (increased SEO),
- Better database management,
- Work with latest Wordpress v2.3.2 and e107 v0.7.11,
- Code cleaned up !
omg i <3 you!!!!!!!!!!! i just tried your new plugin and i almost cried! you’re new update came literally JUST in time! about an hour ago i downloaded the “old” version, and it wouldn’t work. then i checked back and reloaded your page and found you had just posted this one which worked beatutifully! i’m testing it out on another stie right now, and i am ecstatic. you are brilliant. however, i do have one question… the basis of my site revolves around film reviews… all of which are located in the e107_pcontent section of the database. is there anyway you could find a way to import them as well? i have about 1500 reviews, and to do them by hand would drive me insane.
omg… if you can do it, i would forever be grateful. you need to put up a paypal donation button or something– you rock!!!!!
Haha ! Happy to help !
I don’t know what
e107_pcontentis… Ah ! I see: it comes with the “Content Management” plug-in. Let me have 1 or 2 days to try some experimentations…omg i totally love you!!!! i want to like have your babies and stuff!!!! LOL okay, maybe not that far– but i will make sure to name my first born after you or something! middle name at least!
dash: I think it’s better to let your website open for now. The plugin is still in beta. You should use my plugin only in a sandbox. And when you think the plugin is good enough for you, and only at this moment, do the migration to Wordpress.
I also need to see how a big site with so much content look like. Especially to decide what to to with the content (like use news or pages, etc…).
The best thing you can do to help me work on your issue is to provide me a full copy of your e107 database. I know, it’s very sensitive as it contain lots of personnal informations. But I need it to test and fix my plugin. If this can comfort you, Andrius already gave me its database in 2006 and he didn’t complain about any leak.
okay, kev– i’m going to email you about this now. thanks so much!
Dash: thanks, I’ve received it.
Hi,
I just downloaded an installed your import script to my server, but when I call the import-page in wordpress (2.3.3, by the way), it keeps raising this error:
I already edited my php.ini to an allowed memsize of 16M, with no effect. Do you have an idea?
Thanks,
Jo
erm… well… I, hehe… edited the wrong php.ini, and now… so… nevermind
But, just as a formal question, how much memory does the script allocate, anyway, that it hits the 8M-Wall when running it on a fresh Wordpress 2.3.3?
I’m not surprised at all, as I didn’t designed my script with performance in mind. In fact I deliberatly ignore performances issues to let my brain focus on data integrity.
And as a migration is performed only once in the life of your website, it don’t plan to work on performances.
Getting this error on running the script :
Cant seem to find a way around it.
Its 2.3.2 wp installation and 7.11 e107, tried the solutions from earlier versions and tried putting all the e107 and wp tables in the same table, always the same error.
Any suggestions? Thanks.
and how about wp 2.3.5 ?
what about wordpress 2.5? does it work?
What about WP 2.6?
