Migrate a bbPress WordPress plugin forum to Discourse

It sounds like it.

And my vbulletin import script, which does handle non-linked attachments, doesn’t look for them in that table, so you’ll need some custom code to deal with that, even after I get around to submitting a PR with my script.

EDIT: and it also means that I think that even if they were linked in-post they still wouldn’t work, since they aren’t where the script expects them in the database.

Good news! I don’t know exactly how the import script handles it but it does! After making the files accessible to the import container and digging a bit in the script I found that it works. The only problem I had was that the file name which I tested it on contained an ä and thus some weird encoding shit prevented the script from finding the file actually. After fixing the filename the import worked and the attachment appeared at the post!

Thanks a lot for all the tips! :beers:

Awesome! Glad the magic worked for you! (Oh! I and I see now that I was looking at the vBulletin script and not bbPress, hence my confusion. That explains why I couldn’t find the table!)

Any idea please ?
Thank you :wink:

Thanks for this tutorial, @vinothkannans!

I’m stuck modifying bbpress.rb

After running sudo nano script/import_scripts/bbpress.rb it opens the file editor, but when I tray and save, it says there’s no such file or directory:

It’s a totally fresh install.

Many thanks,

Jake

In the above guide, I used /var/discourse directory to install the Discourse development environment. If you installed it in a different location then make sure to cd to that directory (‘~/discourse’ in most cases) instead of the above before running the sudo nano script/import_scripts/bbpress.rb command.

Hi,

I don’t see “script” path in /var/discourse folder.

  • I tried from DigitalOcean’s new Discourse Marketplace fresh instance.
  • I tried from Discourse Docker official install.

This is what /var/discourse/scripts/ looks like:


Best regards

That’s right.

You’ll need to set up a development environment or follow instructions in other import topics about how you might run the import script inside of a production container.

Finally found How to use the bbpress import script - or any other import script with mysql dependency - developers - Discourse Meta for missing part.

Thanks

@vinothkannans أحاول الترحيل من WPForo إلى Discourse والنص البرمجي/الكود يتجاوز قدراتي. هل يمكنك (أو أي شخص آخر) مساعدتي في هذا؟ شكرًا.

قد تجد حظًا أفضل في النشر في Marketplace. هناك عدد من الأشخاص الذين يراقبون هذه الفئة ويمكنهم المساعدة.

أواجه الخطأ التالي عند اتباع الدليل والوصول إلى النقطة التي أقوم فيها بتشغيل البرنامج النصي للاستيراد. لقد قمت بتثبيت discourse وفقًا لـ هذه التعليمات

myuser@tmp-discourse:~/discourse$ IMPORT=1 bundle &amp;&amp; IMPORT=1 bundle exec ruby script/import_scripts/bbpress.rb

[!] حدث خطأ أثناء تحليل `Gemfile`: لا يمكنك تحديد نفس الجوهرة مرتين بمتطلبات إصدار مختلفة.
لقد حددت: sqlite3 (~> 1.3, >= 1.3.13) و sqlite3 (>= 0). لا يمكن لـ Bundler المتابعة.

# من /home/myuser/discourse/Gemfile:251
# -------------------------------------------
# group :generic_import, optional: true do
&gt;    gem "sqlite3"
#    gem "redcarpet"
#  -------------------------------------------

لقد نجحت في ذلك عن طريق تغيير هذا في Gemfile

# ملاحظة: في وضع الاستيراد، يمكن أن يهم إصدار sqlite كثيرًا، لذا نلتزم بإصدار معين
#gem "sqlite3", "~> 1.3", ">= 1.3.13"
  gem "sqlite3"
