vb.org Archive - View Single Post - Help importing WordPress tables into vB tables?

AFemaleProdigy · #1 12-07-2011, 04:21 AM

I am working on merging/importing WordPress content into vB 4.1.8. Since the WordPress version is not one supported by Impex, I am having to import a lot of the content manually. Impex did allow me to import all of the user data and part of the WP posts data, but some of it would not transfer over.

In particular, I am attempting to copy over the WP post_date into vB dateline columns. I have noticed that the format for the dates is different. In vB, the dates look something like this "1311841061" and in WP they look like this "2011-07-14 04:35:36". Does anyone know how I can correctly convert that so it copies over in the correct format?

Thanks!

--------------- Added [DATE]1323235634[/DATE] at [TIME]1323235634[/TIME] ---------------

Also, does anyone have any advice for me as I am doing this merge manually without Impex for the first time? I haven't been able to find any mods, instructions, or anything that do this with vB 4.x. so I am winging it.
