SP5-Importer

Hi,

I have installed SimplePress in one of my testing sites to test the SimplePress Importer plugin.

I am going to import a Simple Machine forum to SimplePress for a client, just wanted to test the importer first to make sure the importer works well, unfortunately the plugin installation failed (see screenshot) I have even tried adding the unzipped folder by FTP but it’s not recognized by SimplePress I mean not listed on the available plugins.

This import operation is very important for me, please help.

Thanks

Roberto

The importer tool is not a Simple:Press plugin but a normal WordPress one! When activated it will add a new menu item to your current SP admin menu.

Thanks!

I think that the plugin authors should put a warning on the Simple:Press site to state that the Importer is a standard WordPress plugin…

By the way…sorted.
