Basically I have two content management system archives that I would like to get migrated into one Wordpress database. See Deliverables for more details below.
## Deliverables
**Task list - Moveable Type to Wordpress Migration:**
1. Strip out PHP tags previously inserted -- including any line breaks before the the snippets -- (big newbie mistake) in Moveable Type blog posts.
2. Change all image urls pointing to the "images" folder to relative urls
3. During migration match up the categories, move the comment archive, and add the original old permalink url to wp_postmeta > meta_key = old_cms_link > meta_value = /archives/[login to view URL] and create a .htaccess 301 redirection that uses this data.
* old url example: [login to view URL]
NOTE: You WILL NOT be using the Moveable Type export feature to handle this task.
**Task list - vBulletin CMS to Wordpress Migration:**
1. Pull all images from database to the "images" folder
2. Update all the image urls in the forum threads (image file names and alt description should match up)
3. Migrate CMS posts and comments to Wordpress database with .htaccess 301 redirection
4. During migration also move the comment archive and add the original old permalink url to wp_postmeta > meta_key = old_cms_link > meta_value = /entry/4633/post_name_here
* old url example: [login to view URL]
5. Migrate "keywords" and "views" associated to each post
NOTE: I created the BB code parser that pulls the blog data from vBulletin's database and formats it. It can easily be modified to help format the content during the move.
**Last thing...** (applies to both Moveable Type and vBulletin)
Add a break at the end of the first paragraph or new line break on the _entire new post archive_ with two or more paragraphs.
