Migration from Serendipity to Wordpress
05 August 2009 | By Christoph in AllgemeinAfter years of using Serendipity as my blog engine I switched to Wordpress today because I just wanted to try it and get used to it.
Here is a page which helped me a lot with the migration. Pay attention to the “dummy entries” which are mentioned there:

One outstanding thing is to migrate the Serendipity permalinks 100% to wordpress.
In Serendipity I had the following structure:

The problem is the “index.php?” –> the question mark spoils the links. I got it working with just /index.php/archives/… but my pages are indexed with the index.php?/archives. Shouldn’t be a huge problem as people just get to the homepage.
