== Installation ==
1. Install the plugin in the Admin => Plugins menu => Add New => Upload => Select
the zip file => Install Now
2. Activate Plugin in the Admin => Plugins Menu
3. Run the importer in Tools > Import > Joomla (FG)
4. Configure the plugin settings. You can find the Joomla database parameters in
the Joomla file configuration.php<br />
Hostname = $host<br />
Port = 3306 (standard MySQL port)<br />
Database = $db<br />
Username = $user<br />
Password = $password<br />
Joomla Table Prefix = $dbprefix
== Frequently Asked Questions ==
= I get the message: "[fgj2wpp] Couldn't connect to the Joomla database. Please
check your parameters. And be sure the WordPress server can access the Joomla
database. SQLSTATE[28000] [1045] Access denied for user 'xxx'@'localhost' (using
password: YES)" =
* First verify your login and password to your Joomla database.
* If Joomla and WordPress are not installed on the same host, you can do this:
- export the Joomla database to a SQL file (with phpMyAdmin for example)
- import this SQL file on the same database as WordPress
- run the migration by using WordPress database credentials (host, user, password,
database) instead of the Joomla ones in the plugin settings.
= The migration stops and I get the message: "Fatal error: Allowed memory size of
XXXXXX bytes exhausted" or I get the message: “Internal server error" =
* First, deactivate all the WordPress plugins except the ones used for the
migration
* You can run the migration again. It will continue where it stopped.
* You can add: `define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '512M');` in your wp-config.php file to
increase the memory allowed by WordPress
* You can also increase the memory limit in php.ini if you have write access to
this file (ie: memory_limit = 1G). See the <a
href="https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/increase-memory-limit/"
target="_blank">increase memory limit procedure</a>.
= I get a blank screen and the import seems to be stopped =
* Same as above
= The media are not imported =
* Check the URL field that you filled in the plugin settings. It must be your
Joomla home page URL and must start with http://
= The media are not imported and I get the error message: "Warning: copy()
[function.copy]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration" =
* The PHP directive "Allow URL fopen" must be turned on in php.ini to copy the
medias. If your remote host doesn't allow this directive, you will have to do the
migration on localhost.
= Nothing is imported at all =
* Check your Joomla version. The Joomla 1.0 database has got a different structure
from the other versions of Joomla. Importing Joomla 1.0 database is a Premium
feature.
= All the posts are not migrated. Why ? =
* The posts put in trash are not migrated. But archived and unpublished posts are
migrated as drafts.
* Some users reported that the Zend Framework causes an incomplete import. So, if
all the data is not migrated, consider deactivating the Zend Framework during the
migration.
= I get the message: "Fatal error: Class 'PDO' not found" =
* PDO and PDO_MySQL libraries are needed. You must enable them in php.ini on the
WordPress host.<br />
Or on Ubuntu:<br />
sudo php5enmod pdo<br />
sudo service apache2 reload
= I get this error: PHP Fatal error: Undefined class constant
'MYSQL_ATTR_INIT_COMMAND' =
* You have to enable PDO_MySQL in php.ini on the WordPress host. That means
uncomment the line extension=pdo_mysql.so in php.ini
= Does the migration process modify the Joomla site it migrates from? =
* No, it only reads the Joomla database.
= I get this error: Erreur !: SQLSTATE[HY000] [1193] Unknown system variable
'NAMES' =
* It comes from MySQL 4.0. It will work if you move your database to MySQL 5.0
before running the migration.
= I get this error "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM" =
* You must use at least PHP 5.3 on your WordPress site.
= I get this error: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2054] The server requested authentication
method unknown to the client =
* It is a compatibility issue with your version of MySQL.<br />
You can read this post to fix it: http://forumsarchive.laravel.io/viewtopic.php?
id=8667
= None image get transferred into the WordPress uploads folder. I'm using Xampp on
Windows. =
* Xampp puts the htdocs in the applications folder which is write protected. You
need to move the htdocs to a writeable folder.
= How to import content from one section as posts and another section as pages? =
* You can use the Convert Post Types plugin after the migration.
= Do I need to keep the plugin activated after the migration? =
* Yes. After the migration, the plugin must stay activated to manage the
redirections and the authentication of the users. If you don't use these features,
then you can deactivate it.
= Is there a log file to show the information from the import? =
* Yes since version 1.45.0. First you must put these lines in wp-config.php:<br />
define('WP_DEBUG', true);<br />
define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true);<br />
And the messages will be logged to wp-content/debug.log.
= Where are stored the authors aliases? =
* Authors aliases are stored in the custom field "author_alias". You can see it by
displaying the custom fields in the edit post screen.
= Redirections don't work =
* Choose a permalink different from the default one in the WordPress permalinks
settings. You can do it either before or after the migration.
* Don't use other redirect plugins that may be in conflict with FG Joomla to
WordPress Premium.
= How the redirections work? =
* The .htaccess is not modified.
* The plugin must remain active to handle the redirections.
* The plugin is doing «301 redirect» in order to keep the SEO.
* It redirects the URLs of the standard Joomla articles (containing the article ID
in the URL) to the new URLs of the WordPress posts.
* It also redirects the URLs defined by the Joomla menus.
* You can change the permalink or the category of the WordPress post. The
redirection will continue to work.
= How can I test the redirections before the WordPress site is live? =
* If your Joomla article has got the URL http://www.myjoomlasite.com/joomlaID-
joomlaarticle.html and the same article in WordPress has got the URL
http://www.mywordpressite.com/wordpressarticle, the plugin will redirect
http://www.mywordpressite.com/joomlaID-joomlaarticle.html to
http://www.mywordpressite.com/wordpressarticle
* Once the WordPress site is live on http://www.myjoomlasite.com in replacement of
Joomla, it will redirect http://www.myjoomlasite.com/joomlaID-joomlaarticle.html to
http://www.myjoomlasite.com/wordpressarticle
* The plugin must remain active to handle the redirections.
= Are the user passwords kept during the import? =
* Yes, since version 1.18.0
= How does the plugin handle Weblinks? =
* The plugin imports the Joomla web links to WordPress links managed by the Link
Manager plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/link-manager/
