How to migrate my existing community to Commudle
When you have your developer community on another platform, it's easy to migrate the existing active members to Commudle. Let's see how.
Before migrating, we need to understand that not 100% members in your existing community ecosystem would be active. For most of generic community platforms, the number of active developers in their communities is under 30%. Which means, 70% members are inactive or haven't even viewed your community for a long time.
Step 1: Announce on the Community Description
Update the description of your community page mentioning the new migration link. The message can look like this.
We are moving to a new platform! From now onwards all our activities will be on [THIS LINK]
Please complete these steps:

Step 2: Announcement Email
