Hello,
I am testing importing our site using the new 1.1b4 and just stumbled over the following feature on the "Import External Data" screen:
This sounds nifty as the content IDs are seeding the URLs
The function is new to b3 or 4 I assume as I didn't find anything about it on the support forums or the manual. Is there any downside or are there any caveats?
For a one time import this should be the default option to go for, right?
Thanks,
Tom

Retain imported content IDs
If you are importing into a new installation with no existing data, you can retain the existing IDs for imported users, forums, threads etc., so that thread 345 from your import source will map to thread 345 in your XenForo database. If you have existing XenForo data, this will fail.
