What would you like done?
An existing forum based on wpForo and WordPress is to be migrated to a self-hosted instance of discourse (already set up/in operation). Forum posts, replies, and the associated users (without passwords) are to be migrated to discourse.
The forum currently has only 100 users and there are approximately 1,600 posts in the forum.
When do you need it done?
asap 🙂
What is your budget, in $ USD that you can offer for this task?

Thank you for your reply, but I have already submitted two inquiries there and have not yet received a response. For this reason, I have now posted my inquiry here in the community. 😉

~~Got one today! I’ll look for the other. Thanks for letting me know.~~
Aha! I found both requests! One came at 1:23 AM and the other at 7:01. I try not to work before 9:00, but given that it’s 7:44AM, today is another day that I failed at that. 🤣

Within a few days, Jahan was able to help me and complete the desired move. Communication was on equal terms and everything was super relaxed. Definitely recommendable and I would gladly use his services again! Thank you very much!
