Question Migrating Likes to XF

[RedFive]

Hello,

I have an old subscription to your Thanks / Likes product on vB 4 (it's very popular on my forum btw - thanks!), and we're now considering migrating to XenForo.

XF seems to have a version of Likes functionality inbuilt, so do you have a script available that would transfer data gathered by your script and migrate it into XF?

Thanks

According to a quick search, it would appear as if this is a feature of the official vB4 importer. If that's no longer the case, you may be able to adapt this query: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/manually-import-dbtech-thanks.93417/ to use the new Reactions table.

Unfortunately I don't have any such script available on my end, so your best bet would be to check whether this is available in the official importer.

Thanks for the help.

Here's the updated query for 2.2

INSERT INTO xenforo.`xf_reaction_content` (content_type, content_id, reaction_user_id, reaction_date, content_user_id)
    SELECT 'post', dbt.contentid, dbt.userid, dbt.dateline, post.userid
        FROM vBulletin.`dbtech_thanks_entry` AS dbt
        LEFT JOIN vBulletin.`post` AS post ON (post.postid = dbt.contentid)
ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE
        content_id = VALUES(content_id);

Then Rebuild Reaction Scores with the native tool in Rebuild caches.
