Re: Can I move my Big Tent group to groups.io? #transfer

 

Neil,

?
... we just have 10 years of messages stored on the Big Tent forum that I fear will all be lost.? Big Tent says there is no way to export the posts.
?
Milt's message indicated you should contact them. Have you tried that?
Failing that, if you can read the messages online then you can screen-scrape them. That's essentially what the transfer agent does with Yahoo Groups. You can copy/paste them by hand (as tedious as that would be) or find someone with the skill set to write a tool to do that for you.
?
There's an example of such an application, written as a plug-in for the Chrome browser, that works for Yahoo Groups. Something similar may be possible with Big Tent.

You might also ask Personal Groupware. They make downloaders for Y!Groups, LinkedIn, and Facebook. They might be willing to take on Big Tent.
