STILL Working on 5.2

By nickmanderfield on May 16, 2019

Got >90% of posts on 5.2 (imported 555 and ran it for one month to test, then 10-20 months at a time to not break anything) Worked like a charm, saved me a major headache, and saved me 120 USD (someone's selling a similar solution for that price!) Had a few false finds, not sure why, going to look into the reason eventually, maybe I'll remember to post!

Still Working on 5.1.1

The plugin still works and does exactly what it says. Thank you! I hope you'll update someday.

Four years later and (nearly) two major-version WordPress releases later and it still works flawlessly...gotta love well-written software. Using this in conjunction with the also ancient-but-fully-functional Tumblr Importer to help fleeing Tumblr refugees migrate safely to self-hosted WordPress.

It works (and still works, WordPress 4.9.8)

Didn't see the images in the posts

By Clicknathan (clicknathan) on September 18, 2018

It simply didn't recognize any images in any of the posts, and so didn't work. 🙁
