Today, I tried and dived into various tools for migration to understand their capabilities and identify improvements in my own migration component.

  1. CMigrator

    Migration of categories, posts, pages and users from Wordpress or Drupal to Joomla.

    • Imports categories, posts, pages, and users.

    • Supports nested categories and maintains content-user relationships.

    • Cleans up WordPress/Drupal HTML code and moves images to Joomla's image folder.

  2. JConverter

    • Can convert comments using JComments plugin.

    • Similar to Prev SOC23 tool

  3. CMS2CMS

    • Not in service.
  4. J2XML 3.x

    J2XML 3.9 is the ultimate solution for sharing your content between Joomla! 3 and Joomla! 4
    Developed by eshiol is supported by many tools

    • J2XML - Wordpress Importer → Import content from WordPress with WordPress Importer for J2XML. This is a plugin for J2XML 3.x which allows you to import WordPress data generated by the built-in export tool.

    • J2XML - Users Importer → Massive user registration via CSV

  5. RO CSVI

    It is primarily used for bringing CSV data into Joomla and mapping it to standard Joomla db fields.
