Update from b2evolution?

  • I have installed the latest “stable” build of WordPress (database = wordpress), but I have had trouble getting the “import-b2.php” file to successfully import my b2evolution database (b2) so WP has none of my b2e posts, comments, etc.
    Is it possible to downgrade my b2e database to plain b2? Can I upgrade to WP from b2e?
    Thank you

  • b2e is a totally different breed of product compared to b2… never heard of an import request first. lets see if carthik chips in ??

    Thank you. I really do enjoy WP loads more, but I just don’t want to transfer 10,000+ of blog entries by copy and paste alone :-p
    I’m willing to provide as much info as needed…

    freeze, does b2evo provide you with rss files with all the posts in it? That seems to be the easiest possible way. Else we will need to have an importer specifically for b2evo, and for that I will have to know how it works, and how it is different from WP/b2.
    I guess b2evo supports multiple blogs and the sort, so importing posts via RSS seems to be the best way to go, if possible.

    I’m having a problem with MySQL on my Gentoo box at the moment, but once I have the RSS feeds, I’ll find out if I can have the feed list all the posts… then I’ll promptly post here.
    Thanks for helping me.

    I fixed the MySQL issue (php.ini and it’s socket setting), and I finally upgraded b2evo.
    There is an RSS capability, but it only shows the stuff on the page; I don’t see an option to adjust the posts per page.
    I think I will just stick with b2evo now; but I will definitely switch if a .php file is made ??
    Thanks again, Carthik.
