Sanjiv, try our service CMS2CMS - it is a web based tool that can handle your K2 to Joomla 3 import. It's a one-time process, and you don't have to export all your data and then import it. It is quite easy to use and doesn't involve any coding.
Here's what can be migrated from K2 to Joomla:
- Articles
- Categories
- Images, mp3 and video files
- Users
- Internal Links
- SEO URLs
If you want to migrate comments too, you just need to install Jcomments for Joomla, and they all will be moved there. There's a free Demo available to see how the whole process looks.

Best regards,

UPDATE perfix_k2_items SET modified=created where modified='0000-00-00 00:00:00'
replace perfix with your database perfix

Images can be imported by the full path. Check the Instruction for that: www.individual-it.net/Instructions-for-K2-Import-Component.html[/quote]
I bought this tool last week, and this is almost a perfect extension, but something I don't know how to use yet. Now I can export the csv file and add some similar items to this csv file then import to K2, it works. but I don't know how to do this for images for each item, I read your documentation, but I am not quite clear how to do step by step.
The best way I suppose should be like this:
In the backend, I add several items with extra fields and images, then I choose this category, and export it and open it with LibreOffice, according to the several sample dada, I may add more items according to sample data in the CSV file, I suppose this is easy for understanding. But I found nothing in the "Image Caption" and "Image Credits"...
Could you let me know how to do step by step? thank you!

is there a way to import a second language? Would you have an up to date import-file to see what fields can be imported with Joomla 2.5 and your tool. I've bought it earlier a few times and not quite sure it my version is stil working on J2.5.
Greetings,
Anne
