One caveat for larger communities: keep an eye on the indexes. At a few thousand rows the difference is night and day.

The importer preserves original dates and maps forums to spaces. Always run with --dry-run first to preview counts, take a database backup, then run the real import. It batches large datasets so timeouts are not a concern.

For what it is worth, the same approach works with the PMPro adapter — the membership side is identical from here.

I respectfully disagree on one detail. In my setup the opposite held true, though I suspect it comes down to community size.

Thanks for writing this up. Bookmarking it — the kind of thing I will want to reference again in a month.
