Data migration from custom made forum

[RogerLevy]

What's involved in migrating data from another forum? Is there some standard JSON structure NodeBB can import? It's not a lot of data (like 20 threads) but the client still wants all old threads brought over.

Try looking over https://github.com/akhoury/nodebb-plugin-import

Haha @ the github description.

Is it absolutely crucial to be on 1.7.5? I can downgrade fairly easily right? I'm on the v1.8.x branch

@RogerLevy The import plugin should work on latest 1.8.x now, as far as I know... there weren't any breaking changes that might affect the importer as far as I know.
