How To Import Joomla Articles To Drupal

To transfer Joomla 2.5 articles to Drupal you will need to use the Migrate Module that you can find here: https://www.drupal.org/project/migrate. To use the Migrate Module you do need to have some php knowledge. With it you get flexible framework that will allow you to migrate your Joomla 2.5 site into Drupal. It will also provide you with support for building core Drupal objects (comments, users, nodes, etc…) You will use included web interface for migration.

 

There are also very good video instructions on migrating to Drupal here: https://denver2012.drupal.org/program/sessions/heads-7-migration-drupal-7

 

If that doesn't work for you, you can try Feeds Module at https://www.drupal.org/project/feeds. With Feeds module you can also import or aggregate data such as comments, users, nodes or even simple database records.
