Thank you!
Migration, Conversion and Specialty Import Services - including Incremental Imports
- Thread starter MySiteGuy

I had a great experience with converting my SMF forum to Xenforo. I had plenty of questions on the process and he was always able to answer them. These migrations are an epic pain for someone like me to do every several years. I'm so glad to have found @MySiteGuy - it just makes sense that he could do these in a professional manner and offer a service.

I've done WordPress wpForo and bbPress to Xenforo, but have not yet done an Asgaro WordPress forum. I can most likely handle it because we've done many custom imports. I will contact you privately in a few minutes in the conversation system to discuss pricing and scheduling.

Review: @Driven2
In working with Ken Payne over the past five years he's always been prompt, a clear communicator, an amazing trouble shooter, and incredibly knowledgeable regarding the software and tools we work with. These tools include Xenforo Forums (of which he's an expert), all things Wordpress (including dozens of plugins), and Amember.
We trust Ken with GatorCountry.com - one of the nation's largest college sports websites. He's never let us down and always goes the extra mile.
Thank you for everything, Ken. It's a real blessing to work with you.

Thank you so much! Its been a great experience with gatorcountry (and the other web stuff too!), and especially nice to see it thrive. It hardly seems like we've been working together on various projects as long as we have!
Its been a blessing for me too, especially the occasional calls and chat. Sometimes its nice to check-in with people at a more casual pace when you're also handling business matters.

Though VB Social Groups to Snogs Social Groups imports have been supported for some time, they've not supported importing a social group's photos. Why? Because those I've handled in the past didn't have any to import.
I'm happy to announce photos in vBulletin Social Groups are now imported into Snogs Social Groups.

I'm very happy to announce an awesome new import source for Xenforo:
Listserv mailing lists!
There are over 56,000 active public (and an unknown number of private) Listserv mailing lists. Plus countless archived lists. This is a huge number of discussion groups stuck in a legacy format that now have an easy path forward.
We can take you Listserve in mbox or .txt file format and import it into a new or existing forum. We create user records from the names/email addresses in posts to your list, plus create threads and posts as well. We can even discern when an email with an previously seen title is a new thread, or a reply to an existing thread. Email addresses in posts are obfuscated to provide some privacy protection and prevent spammer bot scraping.
Please contact us to get started!

Thank you Robyn! I appreciate the kind review.
Your site reminds me of the passion for a topic that originally drew me to forums!

Those of you familiar with us, know we've done Gallery 2 to Xenforo Media Gallery imports for many months. "Gallery" was once one of the most common image gallery software packages, with plugins for many forums and CMS system. Gallery 2 was the most common version.
The old Gallery 1 to Gallery 2 importer by the Gallery team was quite bad, and becomes all but unusable once your gallery grew large. So many busy sites with Gallery 1 got stuck with it, or were faced with abandoning it.
I'm happy to announce Driven 2 now has a direct Gallery 1 to Xenforo Media Gallery import service. So if you're currently stuck with a legacy Gallery 1, or you have one that you took offline but kept a backup, contact us and we can bring it into a modern forum gallery!

Ken did a great job working with us to get 130k+ member feedback records migrated from XCFS to CAS. When we ran into a bit of unforeseen trouble from a past import, Ken worked diligently to get it resolved. This is our second time using Ken, and I won't hesitate to hire him again

We've added support for converting WordPress posts and pages to Xenforo Resource Manager. This includes pulling WordPress media items into the "Download" button functionality of the Resource Manager, with the files stored in Xenforo's native attachment system!
