    I want to migrate some Wekan boards I've still got over on my Sandstorm server into my Wekan install on Cloudron, but there doesn't appear to be any option to Import Boards

    In Sandstorm Wekan the Board Settings menu that have Export Board on also has Import Board:

    But in Wekan on Cloudron that menu item is not shown:

    alt text

    How can I Import Boards into Wekan on Cloudron? Is it possible? Thanks!

    I use Cloudron with Gandi & Hetzner

    The Import Board option is on the "All Board" panel. Click on "Add Board" and it provides the option to import a board. However I never managed to import a board successfully, it always tells mean there is an error with the json and I can't see the new board. I tried to look on the Wekan bug tracker but couldn't find info on this so it might be a cloudron package specific. My text editor struggles to even copy and paste the json text as the files are so long for big boards. I'm really unsure about this export / import approach. Maybe I'm missing something

    Yes, it seems bizarre that you have to paste the content of the file instead of just uploading the file...

    But, it worked! Thanks 😄

    Well, mostly worked. From some strange reason some of my boards on Sandstorm aren't exporting properly (export file is 0 bytes), but that's nothing to do with Cloudron. Thankfully the two boards that had the most data in did export!

    @jdaviescoates Great to know that worked for you :). Which text editor did you use to open the json and copy the text?

    @avatar1024 I just used the default Ubuntu text editor. There was a bit of frustration as a few times I got those "not responding, force quit or wait" warnings, but waited and went ok in the end.
