Convert ipb to discourse?

Is there a converter available to convert my IPB 4 forum to the current version of Discourse? Need posts, members and forum organization intact.

I believe @pfaffman recently worked on one, and it’s in the GitHub source tree if you look?

There is indeed an IPB importer: ipboard. I don’t know what version the site that I last used it for was using.

The two sites that I converted had very different database layouts and, I think, message formats.

I have no idea if it’ll work for. If you want help and have money, you can contact me via contact info in my profile or post on the marketplace.

If it does work for you, I would love to hear it!
