Migrating from b2evolution to WordPress
-
I’m NEW to WP. This is a process question. I cannot find any plugin or clear advice how to transfer my b2evo blog over to WP. Both programs reside in the same shared host server (iPage). B2evolution does not have an export feature. Both the old database for b2evo and new WP database reside in mySQL, I know b2evo stores all media within it’s directory so somehow I need to copy that into WP. Can I simply change the DB path, DB name and user that was used in b2evo into wp_config.php? OR what am I missing that will allow me to make this conversion? I tried to upgrade 2bevo to version 7.2.5 and it didn’t go well. There are some fatal errors I’m not sure are within b2evo from the attempted upgrade. It’s not fully displaying it former skin (template) so I have it offline. If I can successfully migrate to the WP platform I won’t spend time hiring someone to fix the errors. The main reason to leave b2evo is that it’s no longer supported (open source) and won’t run on php 8.0 and above.
