Remove BBCode and convert to Markdown

[Campo_Popo]

Hi There,

I just imported from MyBB to discourse. Old forum had many BBcode into it. During import I set the environment value INPUT=1. Even after this the BBcode is not converted into Markdown. Please tell me how do I convert it into markdown.

My plan is to import into development install and than move to the production.

Thanks @omarfilip

I have lots of these tags, is there any way to render these?
