Cara konversi WordPress ke Joomla

Converting a WordPress Site to Joomla ( Judul Asli )

This tutorial will show you how to move an existing WordPress site over to Joomla. This will work for many WordPress versions up to 3 and will work for Joomla 1.5.

We also have a tutorial showing how to move in the opposite direction, migrating from Joomla to WordPress.

Here’s what you need to know before we start:

• This will import categories from WordPress however it doesn’t associate the imported posts/pages the corresponding categories. This is because WordPress allows one post to be associated with multiple categories and Joomla doesn’t.
• All WordPress categories and sub-categories will simply become categories in Joomla.
• WordPress uses the phpass algorithm to encrypt passwords but Joomla uses MD5. Hence users login password imported from WordPress will not work. One way to get around this is to install the WordPress “MD5 Password Hashes” plugin before you do the import. This plugin converts the WordPress passwords into MD5 which Joomla can understand: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/md5-password-hashes/
• This will imports your database, but not any files (images etc). You’ll need to move those manually.
• Comments will be imported if you have the extension.

Install Joomla and the JConverter Extension

• Install a fresh copy of Joomla without any of the sample data.
• Then find and download the JConverter extension for Joomla in HERE
• Install JConvertor into your new Joomla site.

Get Your WordPress Database Details

You’ll need to go into your WordPress files and access wp-config.php. Open that file and you’ll need to make note of the following details from the file:

• Database name
• Database user
• Database password
• Database host
• Database prefix

Enter Your WordPress Database Details

Go back to your Joomla site and go to Extensions > JConvertor > Global Configuration and enter the database infomartion you just collected:

Starting the Conversion

When that data is in place, click Save and then click Start Conversion!

You’ll now see a screen like the one below. It will show the status of all the imported data:

Check Your Data

Now you can go to your Article Manager, Category Manager and User Manager to make sure that all the data has been imported successfully:
