Client launch: 1,200 members migrated in a weekend

We moved a client from a creaking phpBB install to Jetonomy over a weekend. 1,200 members, 8,000 posts, all dates preserved. The batched importer did the heavy lifting.

Strong agree. Good defaults beat a wall of toggles every single time.

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

Following this thread closely. We are about to face the exact same decision and the replies here are gold.

Appreciate the clear steps. The dry-run tip in particular saved me from a mistake I would not have caught otherwise.
