wp2drupal module for drupal 6
Submitted by DenRaf on Thu, 06/19/2008 - 20:41
On my previous post (link) about this, the port was just in a state of "It works for me". But as commented on the post and I heard from others it wasn't working.
But for a new project it was required to work again :)
So after some little changes everything was working. As prove my colleague Dieter ported his blog from wordpress 2.5. Thanks to Dieter for the help.
The module can use a cleanup, but it works.

thanks for sharing.
2. using mod_rewrite to redirect old permalinks
Hi,
I'm replacing wordpress with drupal in the same directory, and I'm wondering if you can provide some guidance as to how to use mod_rewrite to redirect to the new pages.
Thanks
3. Works for 2.6.3
I tried this with Wordpress version 2.6.3 and successfully got it to import into Drupal 6.6! I'm pretty amazed at how well it worked. I was a little sketched out trying this module since it's not in the Drupal CVS. But I didn't have much to lose with a fresh Drupal install.
I may have messed something up to prevent URL redirects to from the old content to the new. But I'm not too worried about it, it's my personal blog and I just installed the porterstemmer module and the search404 module. So I won't have to many screwed up links.
Thanks a lot!
4. Thanks!
I was glad to see this float through my rss queue. I've been thinking about saving some old info from a blog I put on pause 3 years ago by moving it to Drupal. I also recently had a friend ask about this. We both appreciate it. You've made our decision a good bit easier. It would be great to see this committed!
5. nice podt
what about for drupal5..
do u got modules for it???
6. Wordpress Path
It brings in the WordPress path '?p=123'. The site I helped move had this as the URL style so I don't know offhand how the WP eXtended export handles this that would be the determining factor. If wordpress export gives up the aliased paths then it would be pretty simple to map them. In this case, too, both the new and old servers live on, at least for now, so it would most likely come down to writing a site specific mapping table for Apache rewrite. Hopefully I'll have a little time to explore this more soon.

7. For wp2drupal you don't need
For wp2drupal you don't need to export your wp.
This module connects with your wp and drupal database and does the conversion.
8. Drupal.org CVS
You should set yourself up with a Drupal.org CVS account and then stick this in your sandbox, and make a patch so that the maintainer of the module can commit it!
9. The module works for me.
The module works for me. Thanks.

10. Good stuff!
I'll be bookmarking this for future reference as I have a couple of outlaying WordPress blogs that need converting.
On a side note, the attached file has a funny ending ".tar__0.gz" and is displayed ".tar__.gz"
Thanks for your work.

15. Importing from WP 2.9.1 to Drupal 6.15
I have tried to use your module, but the blogs do not import well. It seems they are all cut and only a few lines import.
Thanks
16. Could you check your post
Could you check your post settings. You can find them at admin/content/node-settings.
You should change those before you do the import.
17. WP to Drupal
I have a WP blog n want to convert it into Drupal, is it possible?
