      NuWiki's redirect pages are in a different format than VaultWiki redirects. If you want the redirects to parse, you'll need to:
      1. Turn on NuWiki legacy support (slows down the parser). vBulletin Options > VaultWiki: Legacy Options > Enable support for Legacy Wiki Markup, OR
      2. Run the conversion wizard, which may or may not convert everything as desired: VaultWiki > Wiki Maintenance Tools > Convert Legacy Code to BB-Code.

      I have run the conversion wizard yesterday. But it does not convert redirects. It is an important thing that needs to be imported. Could you please take a look at the conversion wizard and see if this can be resolved?
      I can't go for nuwiki legacy support, as I need performance.

      What syntax are you using for your redirects?

      Please try running the converter again. I see that temporarily enabling legacy support parses them. Since that's basically all the converter does, perhaps it didn't detect the Redirects forum as a valid wiki forum at the time. Perhaps you changed the hierarchy since the last convert?

      That doesn't resolve it.

      In all my tests here, the redirect is successfully converted. Unless you can grant me FTP access to your test site (basically need to comb through admincp/vaultwiki_tools.php and the /vault/(class|functions|plugins)/bbcode* areas to find what it doesn't like about your data), I won't be able to figure out why it's not working for you.

      Could this be related to books not getting imported either?

      That's another thing I could work on, but the mechanism that handles books versus redirects is very different in VaultWiki, so it's unlikely the causes are related.

      I think that this bug is not related to the importer, but instead to this: http://www.vaultwiki.org/issues/1966/
      Marked as a Duplicate for now, if the problem persists after upgrading to 3.0.4 (when it's released), and then clearing the Article Post Cache, petition this report.

      Redirect codes are still not converted by the nuwiki bb code importer. The issue remains on 3.0.7

      Your redirect pages are in a non-wiki forum. They will not be converted. The converter only changes wiki articles. Aside from that, this is now fixed as per this report.

      Aha! Thats the issue.

      But it was a wiki forum before I installed VW. So its disabled somehow. Now when I try to make it a wiki forum, I get this error:
      The forum could not be added to the namespace. Create the forum with the Wiki mode disabled, and configure the namespace in the Namespace Manager to include this forum. You can then activate the forum's Wiki mode.

      If it's not already a child-forum of a namespace (or the main forum of it), you need to first create a new namespace in the Namespace Manager.
