WP2Drupal 6.x-1.7

Due to its limited use I have not needed to use it in over a year. With my other obligations increasing I am making this module available for anyone to take over who has the time to continue working on it.With this module you can import your site from Wordpress to a clean Drupal install. Please note that it has not been tested with anything newer than Wordpress 2.6.AncestoryOriginally created by Borken Bernard for Drupal 4.7, it was updated to support Drupal 5 by teodorani and then upgraded to work with Drupal 6 by DenRaf. This a continuation of DenRaf's code from his blog announcement on June 19th, 2008.Note: While the project has been available in versions for Drupal 5 and older, only Drupal 6 and newer will be supported.GoalsThe goals of the project are simple: * Provide a method of importing a Wordpress blog into Drupal. * Make it feature complete for all core Wordpress data. * Make it easy to use. * Long term goal: merge it into an all-in-one migration tool, e.g. maybe Migrate.In Comparison to Wordpress_ImportThe Wordpress_Import module work towards a similar goal, but there are several differences: * Wordpress_Import uses an WXR export file from Wordpress whereas WP2Drupal interacts directly with the database. * WP2Import has greater flexibility with the import: o You can use Path_Redirect to catch the old URLs but still use PathAuto to give them new URLs; GlobalRedirect will make it even more transparent o You can (optionally) clear out (truncate) existing content tables to start with a fresh copy of your content * Wordpress_Import is somewhat more user-friendly.Ultimately, though, WP2Drupal should be merged into a more useful all-in-one migration tool.
