As others have mentioned, the easiest way of doing this currently is via the [WP Discourse](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse) plugin. Updating the dbs of each instance directly raises two potential issues:

1. It requires you to understand all of the data and metadata being stored on each instance.
2. The data and metadata is interdependent, i.e. after a post is successfully published from Wordpress to Discourse the id of the post in Discourse is saved to a post meta field in Wordpress.

If you were already familiar with both 1 and 2, then yes updating the dbs directly might be a good option, but considering you’re not, it’s not a good idea unless you want to spend time learning that just for this purpose. In that vein, you could hire someone to do this for you, however I would recommend you just use the [WP Discourse](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse) plugin’s functionality instead.

Using the [WP Discourse](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse) plugin has the additional benefit of logging already being setup for [WP Discourse](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse) publishing, which means you’ll get detailed, post-specific information if any of the publications fail.

It’s true that this will mean 1000-odd POST requests to your Discourse as the [WP Discourse](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse) plugin only POSTs one topic at a time, however considering this is a one-time migration, you can handle this by breaking it up into batches and through pauses (i.e. sleep) in the script. I would recommend doing a manual check after the first few batches to see it’s working as you expect.

In terms of the script itself, you would use the `WPDiscourse\DiscoursePublish` method [`publish_post_after_save`](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse/blob/master/lib/discourse-publish.php#L111) for each post, i.e. in a loop (with appropriate batching and sleep).
