Premise: when I try to search on Google using terms like “migrate from discourse”, 99% of the results are about how to migrate from whateverforum to discourse. I really can’t believe that no human on earth has ever tried to do the opposite. Is it so hard? Am I unable to find a proper answer looking …

[תמונה] MaxDL: the discourse user id don’t match the user in wordpress The Discourse user’s external_id will match the WP user_id.

And to be honest there is only one category that I would like to export to bbpress, with less than 100 topics. I even considered to, litterally, copy and paste the msgs manually by posting them on frontend …

[תמונה] MaxDL: I find so strange that (apparently) there isn’t an easy way to export dara from discourse in a way that is “easy” to import in any other platform. Again, there very likely is, but you’re not asking in the right place. Here on meta.discourse.org we discuss Discourse, development…
