XF 2.1 IPB 4.4.x to XF 2.1 Import

Do you have any plans on updating the importers for IPB 4.4.x for XF 2.1? Your documentation only says you only support Xenforo 2 and vBulletin


Today I have ran an import from 4.4. into 1.5 which was successful despite only supporting up to 4.2, although some data is lost with profile pictures and reactions. With 1.5 not supporting reactions that’s understandable, although profile pictures not so.

Would be great not to lose these and make the move as seamless as possible skipping the 1.5 to 2.1 step and go straight to 2.1.

Also URL redirection, I can’t find any information on this, with a 1m+ post forum I’m looking at possibly moving it’s important that topic/post URL’s redirect correctly, I know they have made a few changes with this latest update to the URL’s.

This is the big one really, whilst losing profile pictures and reactions would be a pain, we could maybe live with that, but not without the URL redirections all working smoothly, any planned move would be scrapped.
 
I may have jumped a gun with this topic.

Appears to be a number of issues with going from IPB 4.4 to XF 1.5, then 2.1.

I will continue to have a play though and work on a skin, theres a lot to like about Xenforo, a lot. Once/if an upto date importer becomes available if feels like the right time to move across.
