Good question. I haven’t tested it for any sites with that many posts. Perhaps there was a problem in the code with the story that it stopped at. That happened to me once.

hi !

worked great for me with the last version of wordpress except that it didn’t transfert all the news, maybe because there were too much ? about 1000 and it transfered 300 of them.

I’ve been meaning to write an update to this with another path. I went from Cutenews to Flatpress to WordPress.

I have 2.8.2 and it worked – I had to clean up some categories but other than that it worked like a charm!

THANK YOU.

I didn’t check to see. If not, that stinks, and perhaps someone will come up with something.

Wow, thanks Mark! I’ll let you know how it goes when I run your scripts. For whatever reason, I wasn’t expecting a response from you. haha

Well, I guess with ‘Mark’ you have me in mind. ^^ I have experienced many converters to be either buggy or written for already obsolete versions of either blog engine. But migrating isn’t as complicated as it might seem.

If you have difficulties following my instructions drop me a line (or launch Jabber/Google talk and find me by my email). I’d be happy to help you, and can maybe enrich my instructions.
