BuddyBoss Migration issues

I have tried the new Migration feature on a staging version of my site and all worked ok EXCEPT images within posts did not transfer over.

I report this to Support and was informed that it was a bug...

However, on reading the FC Docs, it appears that Space pictures will NOT migrate...

So my question is... is this a bug or something that can't be migrated over?

(For context, I run a Photography Community on BuddyBoss so images are a huge part of my groups/spaces)

Space pictures are header images, not the images in posts.

The header images AND the images posted by users within posts didn't transfer (headers are no problem, I can replace those...) but user content is missing which is crucial!

I migrated a community from BuddyBoss to Fluent Community. I did not use the migrator as I know not everything will transfer over perfectly. I created a whole new community from scratch using Fluent Community.

Migrated all my users over to the new one using WP Migrate and then just archived the old community into a small $20 per month server and then made a link available in the Fluent Community so they could browse it and reference any old data from there.

I used this video to setup the users and session sync between both communities. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNT7eSEZh3I

Working great so far
