 * Hi All,
 * I have recently moved from Joomla to WP. Still getting the ropes and understanding
   how the system works.
 * My old setup on WordPress replied on Mosets Tree which is a directory component
   that was very flexible. I used it to post articles as it allowed the right look
   and feel. Anyway I used FG Joomla and the plugin for Mosets and it allowed me
   to import however it needed a Types plugin to be installed for the custom fields
   I had and then it imported it into listings which is a side component like posts.
 * I can see there is a tool which will convert the listings but will need some 
   assistance to move them into the right catagories but this looses the custom 
   fields which I will need to work out how to map.
 * I was thinking is there much of a difference between the two post types and which
   is better for SEO, my template seems to load posts on the home page and not the
   listings, I am guessing something needs be changed in the settings? for going
   forward is it better I migrate all to posts or leave in listings before the site
   goes into full production
