WordPress Migrate Recipe for Drupal CMS
This module provides a structured way to import content from WordPress to Drupal, including posts, pages, media, tags, and categories. It works by using an XML export file from WordPress and setting up the necessary Drupal modules for a smooth migration. This allows users to try Drupal as a content solution for their existing WordPress websites.
The WordPress Migrate Recipe for Drupal CMS module is to offer an easy site building recipe for importing WordPress content (posts, pages, media, taxonomy terms like tags and categories, and comments).
Features
The primary use case for this module is taking an existing WordPress site content via WP core XML export and importing it to your new Drupal 10.2+, Drupal 11, or Drupal CMS website.
You can try out Drupal as a free content solution for any existing WordPress website as long as you can obtain the standard XML export of the content, including tags and categories (taxonomy terms).
Post-Installation
This is a recipe that handles installing the separate module wordpress_migrate, and additional support modules such as migrate_tools, ctools, migrate_plus, pathauto and token.
You will need an XML (aka the WXR format) file exported from WordPress, available under Tools > Export in the WordPress admin panels. (This method does not require, nor implement, a database connection.)
To successfully import WordPress body content you will need at least one configured content type with a 'text_with_summary' text field serving as the body field. (Note that 'minimal' site installation profiles may not give you this.)
Likewise you must have at least one taxonomy to import terms like categories and tags.
In order to import and create new copies of media files, the site needs to reachable from the installation site server. It can retrieve working media URLs.
Additional Requirements
This requires migrate_plus, pathauto, migrate_tools, wordpress_migrate.
