Redirect script for SMF

[forumite]

Apologies if this has been answered before ... Is there a redirect script for a forum imported from SMF 2.x to Xenforo? I see mention of scripts for vB 3.x & vB 4.x and IPB 3.x. If no script for SMF, how do folks create the necessary redirects? TIA.

I don't believe any one has created any redirect scripts for SMF as yet.

Though it may not be necessary.

The importer has an option to "Retain imported content IDs". This means a thread imported from SMF will have the same ID after it is imported to XF.

Therefore you would just manually create some server side redirects to 301 redirect the old link to the new link.

Thanks for the prompt response Chris.
