Migrating from VoodooPad

MojoPad was built to be the place VoodooPad documents retire to — losslessly.

One menu item

Choose File ▸ Import VoodooPad Document… and pick your .vpdoc. Every page comes across: rich text pages with their formatting and their embedded images and diagrams, plain text pages, web archives (with the same Clean / Snapshot choice as any other import), images, PDFs, and URL bookmark pages. Page links reconnect automatically because linking is by name — the moment the pages exist, the words light up again.

What maps to what

VoodooPad	MojoPad
Pages, aliases, WikiWords	Identical concepts, same behavior
Collections	Collections palette (drives PDF/ePub order)
Tags, To-dos, Anchors, Backlinks	Same-named palettes
VPNewPageTemplate	Honored as the new-page template, including $date$-style variables
Scriptlets <% %>	Same syntax, JavaScript inside — see Scripting: Scriptlets
Plugin pages	Pages named Plugin: X — see Scripting: Plugins
Event scripts	Pages named Event: X — see Scripting: Event Pages
Encrypted pages	Re-encrypt after import (MojoPad uses modern AES-256-GCM)
Static publishing	The Static palette — see Static Publishing
The Bucket, Sketch, web server, web export	All present and accounted for

Notes

• Your .vpdoc is opened read-only and never modified.
• VoodooPad's encrypted pages can't be imported encrypted (the cipher differs); decrypt them in VoodooPad first, then encrypt again here.
• Import is repeatable — try it on a copy, poke around, import again for real.
