Hi folks,

we have successfully tested the migration of phpbb several times. However, there is one problem we have not been able to solve yet. In some posts there are internal links to other posts or topics, these are migrated and no longer work. Not only the link changes, but also the postId and topicId is changed.

e.g.
https://old_phpbb_board/viewtopic.php?p=23727
https://new_wpForo_board/forum/postid/2476/

Are there any solutions how to rewrite these links? Or is there after the migration a table with old and new postid and topicid, with which one could rewrite the links afterwards?

Hi @nick81,

 Our Migration tool can't solve the internal links and lots of things in the content:

  • If you have done the migration with go2wpForo and hadn't manually deleted wp_wpforo_mg2wpforo table.

You can contact the gVectors Custom Work Team by sales[at]gvectors.com and request a custom work that would make those link to work.

In case you want to say thank you !)
We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.
