Ideas for converting a wordpress site to NodeBB?

[A Former User]

I run a site called paindatabase.com, which reviews treatments for chronic pain.

In the future, I was going to implement NodeBB as the commenting system, but thought...why not just convert the whole site over from wordpress to NodeBB?

Of course I have no idea how to do this, and don't know if it would be a terrible mistake.

Basically I'd want one of the columns in the topic list to be the grade rating of each pain treatment from A-F. And each thread/treatment would have a picture of the treatment instead of the original poster's avatar.

That being said, I don't know if it's possible to convert a wordpress site to NodeBB, and maintain the comments and SEO stuff.

I did start a wordpress conversion tool, however I ran into an issue and haven't touched it since. @bentael is now the main contributor on it since the import plugin was updated. I'm not 100% on if it currently works or not. But I'm sure the above mention will get him in to verify the current status.

Glad I could be a part of bringing your dream to reality one step closer. How's your other site going?

Day before launch, I decided to wait for badges. Wrong choice!

You guys seem to be chugging along. I periodically check in on hashtalk/convoe/35 to see what the cool kids are up to.

Mines undergoing a change in a few months. Still music based, but more genres etc.

I need to re-write a big chunk of all exporters guys, to throttle or paginate the data, because of this
