for the last two weeks, i was thinking to move flarum to a subdomain, now I am mentally ready to move out. i installed a fresh WordPress in a test environment and now creating posts with WordPress CSV importer.
@phenomlab said in move out from flarum to wordpress:
With a large community
I have 986 users and 1.2k discussions do you think its large? a year ago when i used to have around 800 posts i have manually imported posts and comments using CSV importer.
we need to change user IDs to email IDs and flarum discussion IDs to wordpress post IDs same for the comments too, this gonna be a roller coaster ride.
Sir, if there is any easy automation script that would really help. but in my view, it will take an equal amount of time to write code or to perform CSV import what do you say?
sir, i am going forward with manual import wish me luck
@hari good luck ! Let me know if you need any help. 1 2k posts isn’t much and you can batch create the users
this is not a good decision, moving flarum to subdomain
it is something we want to move out and we miss a few features + a huge migration process. 
a few hours ago flarum released v1.2.0 now setting up a new digital ocean droplet

Looking at the release, I doubt there’s anything in there that will address your specific issues.
@phenomlab moving away from the existing ecosystem, migration time, the development time of new gatsby based forum = lot of time-consuming and expensive (this is what my friend told me and convinced to move to the subdomain)
@hari I’d agree with that statement and sentiment. In essence, moving Flarum to a subdomain IS actually the right way of doing things, and you should let WordPress handle the login and registration process.
*i know its a bit old post but I wanted people to find solution 
i moved my forum flarum to WordPress.
here is the importing script we used flarum -> wordpress
https://gist.github.com/sinanisler/39a193ab1e074049026294f3b971a847
it is basically connecting the flarum db selecting tables and putting them on wordpress post/users/categories
code a bit messy but my friend will clean it up soon hopefully

I am developing the theme rightnow it is almost ready .
when it is finished I will release here free and open source.

here some sexy sexy looks from Wordpress
@sinanisler nice work ! Welcome to Sudonix 
@hari you might want to check back here in this thread and review the work that @sinanisler has done in terms of converting Flarum to WordPress.
Impressive stuff.
@sinanisler as a side note, the below GIST appears to include your database password. I’d strongly recommend remove this sensitive information, and also changing the password if this is actually used on any production installation

@phenomlab its ok
i always make my passes random and that server/db already shutdown.
thanks 
@sinanisler Good.
@sinanisler OMG this is great news for me.
i have a WordPress flarum like theme if you want i can send the theme files, we almost worked for 3months on it [on and off]. (i am not a dev someone in the past worked for it.)
it has deep integration with wpDiscuzz with features like move post and few other important features.
in fact i was thinking to share it to the public but it is still buggy.
as you are already working and saying it is at the final stage i am not going to miss this. 
wpdiscuz.com/demo/
gvectors.com/product-category/wpdiscuz/
after all, this being minimalist is very important to stay close to the updates. wpdisuczz is something interesting but it is complicated to maintain a theme.
This is WordPress

We have also implemented the YARPP related post with CRPT custom related post type
i will try to bring that project online and share URL here so you can review . it is bit slow but i will share the code which will be helpful to build related post.
i am all in on this

You might want to reconsider that
@phenomlab I could not find the email settings, I am setting this page as my home page 
thanks to @sinanisler for stepping in.
@Hari click the bell icon at the top and set the watching status. That will trigger an email for this particular topic at least.
//update i started migrating files into this domain 123forum.tk
i will list all features that we have implemented there and we will figure out which features we can take from the 123forum
@Hari keep us posted.
123forum theme is an identical flarum them with all features. it is fully built though it is not deployed due to load issues. the reason i am sharing is you can consider taking CSS or JS from it . i am aware about reusing doesn’t always work for our needs but consider it as a visual prototype

Related posts
where we can select as many related discussions manually
10 related discussion will be shown automatically
using CPTR if we set 2 discussions rest of the 8disucssions will be shown from YARPP
The biggest reason for us to start this project is related posts and flarum doesn’t support Dravid languages like hindi, telugu (they recently fixed major bug on this)
