Migrator from Kunena to EasyDiscuss that keep url... for SEO...

hello,

EasyDiscuss and Kunena don’t have the same way of building the url
so if we use the migrator we'll break all our old url and Google links…
that is not possible !!

ED url

Kunena url

I am sure, something can be done by the dev team of stack ideas. You guys made so many good things for ES, templates... i am always impress. Any ideas for kunena migration ?


Please let me know if there is plan from your side to resolve this migration impossibility

at least if ED can keep the kunena ID for topics and categories
if ...com_kunena&id=1000 can be migrated as ....com_easydiscuss&id=1000

may be we could organise something by our own.

For example : (not professional maybe but that could work) with an external file called by a rewrite rules in htaccess… this can be used for month to redirect google url...


previously used for other migration that can be adapt for our use ?
<?php

// This file is designed to be called by the rewrite rules in htaccess
// It will reqrite the URL and redirect

// Get the querry string
$url=$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];

// Replace old string with new
$url=str_replace('kunena','easydiscuss',$url);
$url="index.php?redirected".$url;

// Go to new URL
header('Status: 301 Moved Permanently', false, 301);
header(sprintf("Location: %s", $url));
?>


Sure the dev team can arrange something better than my idea
