            The finest pali in a very long time!

              Lunch has been a Pukka steak slice

              This morning has been largely given over to new forum stuff, specifically, the whole business of preserving the original thread IDs

              Luckily, it’s pretty straightforward to override the bits that need special treatment, as they built their vBulletin 5 importer as an extension to their vB4 importer. This means there are already specific methods for getting the relevant data from the database, and I just have to override and adjust them appropriately. I’ve also put together test infrastructure that lets me run parts of the importer in isolation, down to the level of individual methods. So I can create a test for the specific bit I need to modify at each stage, run it under the debugger to see exactly what’s going on in there, then make my adjustments and confirm it’s working as required

              Once this is working, it’ll be the posts, the IDs of which need similar treatment in order to preserve the palis!
