hi again!

well, i have now purchased the license so i hope someone can help me here...i have written a convertor from XMB 1.11d to vB. it does members (but not sigs), forums (requires reordering in vb cp before importin threads / posts), threads and posts. i have sorted the original problems out but now i have a small problem in that the forum seems to be ok, everythings there that i need but when u go to the members list it only shows the admin a registered even tho there r 933 other members all of whom can post!!!!

is there something simple i need to do to rebuild the index or something? i have gone thru and rebuilt everything in the admin cp.

the code is attached for u to have a look and see where i may have gone wrong.

thanks

This is the official importer which is yet to be released.

It was designed for 1.5 so it may not work on 1.1d but its worth a try.

thanks fot that but I have found upgrading to XMPANTS 1.5 tends to stuff the forum completely so I will prolly not risk doing it again.

I am sooo close to going live with this forum, I could actually do it now but it would be nice to sort the dearch user problem listed above first. Has anyone got any ideas?

You need to insert a row into userfield for each user, it doesnt need to have a value but it needs to be done because a left join query is used.
