When I first wrote this extension in 2020 I had migrated from CComment. I had exported the comments to a CSV, used Excel to replace the internal IDs with the asset IDs of the articles, and massaged the data to the right shape. Then I imported the CSV into my database and it worked. I imagine that you can write a migration |

Thanks for the answer and ideas. I have to check with my client, how far they want to go. |

I imagine that you can write a migration
consoleplugin, or even a plain PHP script to automate that process. You may have to do that anyway if you have content which is not truly HTML, e.g. Become, Markdown and so on. The schema of Engage is fairly simple.
