Question migrate agora to kunena ??

Just think I'll add my 10 penneth to the mix here, I migrated my Agora using this method, but found that after following this method, it failed to show the posts. I found it was down to Joomla SEF I deleted all the Kunena entries in the database, and tried again, only this time turning off the Joomla SEF, once the migration was done, re-enabled SEF
Now works like a charm

Hi There,

I've just migrated from agora to Kunena 1.5 and updated to 1.6.1 and i get the categories shown correctly.

But when clicking on a Topic I'm refered to the old agora Forum.

Did you have similar problems?

How can I fix that?

THX a lot

I did not experience this. Have you tried installing the latest 1.6.2 yet?

Also be sure to back up!

I'd like to add an issue that I ran across, and its solution.

In the Agora forum, we had deleted some users who had posted in the forum.
In Agora, the username attributed to the post would revert to "Guest."

When I migrated to Kunena, all of those "Guest" posts disappeared, because there was no user id to identify them (poster_id reverted to '0')
Solution: I created a user named "Guest", looked in the database for the ID# and then ran a query:

UPDATE jos_agora_posts SET poster_id = 1424 WHERE poster_id = 'Guest';

When I migrated this time, the missing posts appeared for the user Guest.

I'm satisfied with the result, only issue is that duplicated
first posts from topics. I deleted them manually.

I also ran into the duplicate first post issue. Is there a query that can be run to eliminate those posts, rather than deleting manually? We have over 500 threads so it would be tedious.

Thank you!

This is what I am looking for is an instruction for the migration process.

I have tried following this link but was not able to locate any links that take me directly to the file downloads? I think it would be helpful to new Kunena users to have these links listed somewhere to make it a bit easier for us noobies to get an install Kunena.
