Hihi, would you access the link above ?
Hi @gdjam, he's there, but probably busy this week. Most of the devs around
these plugins have full time jobs or are full time students :)
I was curious, why do you want to migrate your blog completely to node bb?
Ghost is designed for blogging, nodebb is not. However if you're looking
for a commenting mechanism, nodebb can plug into ghost to enable that
functionality.

@bdharrington7 Hi, thanks for your reply.
I want to change to nodebb from ghost, because ghost is lacking of many function, just like:
- lacking of
category user registration system(not only for the author, but guest) ,and the register can not vote and reply to the post, and the register can not communicate to each other...- the
markdown-composeris not that humanization...
and so on...
@bdharrington7 and, the ghost's version is released very slowly...
@bdharrington7 and, there is no plugin-system in the ghost....
@bdharrington7 i'm feeling a little tired of using the ghost...
Regarding the reasons you cited:
lacking of category
There are tags in Ghost, which might be a close enough approximation for you
user registration system(not only for the author, but guest) ,and the register can not vote and reply to the post, and the register can not communicate to each other...
The NodeBB Team is using the Ghost/Nodebb integration and have configured it so that posters have to register (and can be configured not to require it, this is on the NodeBB side)
the markdown-composer is not that humanization...
NodeBB's default (and IMO best) composer is also using markdown.
Check out their blog: https://blog.nodebb.org/
If you click into an article, you can see how there are comments on the bottom, those are served by NodeBB.
This way you wouldn't have to migrate, just install the right plugins and you don't have to wait for an importer.
these days i have learned how to use nodebb and write some plugin | widget, and i know what it means to me, i know what i want, i will migrate the data myself, thanks...
@gdjam I can do it, but not as fast as you expect. like @bdharrington7 said, I do have a full time job.
But i agree with him as well, if you just integrate with NodeBB for comments using this plugin
