Converting from Drupal 5.x to WordPress 3.x? | WordPress.org

My site has been using Drupal for some time, but I find Drupal not too convenient and currently considering to migrating to WordPress.

My Drupal version is 5.x, while I’m going to migrate to WordPress 3.x. I’ve tried Google, but the nearest option is only “Drupal 5.x to WordPress 2.7” (not 3.0).

Perhaps someone here might be able to help? 🙂 Thank you very much.

My 2 cents: should there be no other more recent conversion tutorial/assistance, you could migrate to WP 2.7 then test your WP installation. And from there do a point by point upgrade while keeping WP default theme and without installing any plugins. WP 2.7 to WP 2.8 to WP 2.9 to WP 3.0. Not that much. I just recently helped out someone upgrade her WP 2.3 to WP 3.0. It took less than one hour 🙂

Hmm… ok, I tried converting to 2.7 first… but it always gave me this error, no matter what SQL scripts available I tried.

#1062 - Duplicate entry '1' for key 'PRIMARY'

What’s wrong with this? :

Not sure why there is a duplicate entry being generated by your SQL conversion script. This article seems to have happy campers commenting re migration from Drupal to WordPress
