    But I'm really sorry I can't support these scripts. Good luck!
  • This is a "old" blogpost, but your code for transfer from Expressionengine to Wordpress could be useful to me. Is there any way for you to update your links?

    Thanks :-)
  • sven: sorry for taking so long to reply - all my code is now on google:

  • I'm interested in migrating an EE site to WordPress, but I'm not as tech savvy as you. Do you ever do freelance jobs?
