after more wall.fm downtime, we are now want to migrate our site to oxwall, the site is a mature site with 600+ members and has been running for 1 year

thank you

when I switched over, it took a week for the oxwall team to successfully transfer my site data to the oxwall software. Their data importer does not, and will not work, so it may take a while.

Hi Lisa, I moved to oxwall from xitti (adult version of wall.fm) and I'm glad I did, it offers more freedom and heaps more options, yes the import doesn't work but there's heaps of support here and people are helpful.

You should be sure to have backup of everything as anything might happen. As importer does not work as expected, you should be patient to get it done.
