v0.1.0 — Initial release
First release of the Flarum 2 importer / converter.
Migrate into Flarum 2 from: phpBB 3.x · vBulletin 3/4 · vBulletin 5/6 · XenForo 1.x/2.x · MyBB 1.8 · SMF 2.0/2.1 · Vanilla · NodeBB · Invision Community (IP.Board) · Discourse · Convoro.
Highlights
- Runs on shared hosting — a resumable, batched step machine driven from the browser; no queue worker or SSH required, and it can't time out. Uses a queue worker automatically if one is present.
- Two ways in — connect to a live source database, or upload a
mysqldump/SQLite dump. - Resumable — progress, cursors and source→Flarum id-maps are persisted, so a run survives a closed tab or dropped connection.
- Faithful content — BBCode / HTML / Markdown convert to Flarum's native rich-text format (bold, italics, links, quotes, lists, code).
- Relations preserved — members (bcrypt logins kept where possible), tags, discussions, first/last-post pointers, comment & participant counts.
- Categories import as tags when
flarum/tagsis installed.
Everything is driven from the admin panel, with a live progress bar. A CLI (php flarum importer:run) is included for very large migrations.
