Convert Zoints Thread Tags to vB 3.7 tagging system
Description
This will convert all tags from the Zoints thread tags hack to vB 3.7's tagging system. Use Simply upload the converttags.php to your forums root folder and run it in your browser. Once the script is done, delete it. Don't refresh the page after running it (this would give you an MySQL error). Note: vB 3.7's tagging system has a few additional settings which Zoints thread tags doesn't have, so it couldn't be converted. UserID: vB 3.7 saves the ID of the user who added the tag in the database. In my converter, the ID will always be '1'. If you want to use a different one, let me know. (I think the only time this is used is when you edit the tags of the thread: The tags added by you will be displayed in bold.) Date: Whenever a tag is added, vB will save the date in the database. In my converter, it will always be the date you ran my script. Once again, I'm putting this under beta stage for a while, until more people have tested it and got it to work. I myself have been testing this many times and hope everything is working fine :) Use at your own risk, I suggest running this on a test forum before. Updates 22/6/2008: Security issues fixed. Everyone who got database errors should give this another try, the update will fiy this issue. 19/4/2008: version 1.0.1: Made some changes which will hopefully fix some problems the users have had. |
looked soo promising until it gave a Mysql error will processing 370 of 5550 tags.
|
Which error did you get?
|
You know original I was going to do without importing them over since it asn't really that big of a deal but then since you just helped me out here 1 less thing to do without. Thx!
|
THANK YOU. My use of Zoints tags in 3.6 is the reason I was not going to update to 3.7! I will get back to considering it now!
|
Zoints Tags works just fine with vB 3.7, as I use it myself! :)
But this is great, I wanted to move over to the vB system but this is what was holding me back. I'll give this a whirl later tonight. Thanks. |

|

Tried it out during my update to a heavily modded beta6, worked flawlessly!
|
I'm looking forward to using this, too - I just need to wait for the final version of vB (which will give me the new version of vBSEO). :)
|
Thanks for this i tested it in a test format it works perfectly. But i'de like to change the userid from 1 to 6 (since 6 is me and i'm the one who added all those tags)
Thanks :) Code:
$db->query_write("INSERT INTO `" . TABLE_PREFIX . "tagthread` (`tagid`, `threadid`, `userid`, `dateline` ) VALUES ('$tagid','$threadid','1','$dateline')"); |
Hi,
What about urls like forums/tags/mytag/ ? Does your script redirect them to the VB tag system ? Tks and good job ! |
Tried but didn't worked for some reasons, get error just before the end (total tags are 25,000), but get error around 23,000 :>

Thanks for the update, I will be able to give this a run through soon (when vB is released, and thus the new vBSEO).

Strange though, no errors Edit: Tried it on another site of mine and it works. Strange, why doesn't it work on my main site :? Edit 2: Found what's causing it. In config.php i had database type set to Mysqli, i changed that to Mysql and it works ;) |

Hey Zappsan i run the converter again and everything works fine!
Thanks a lot for your help :) Very usefull, ty a lot! |
Will this work for the zoints thread tags for vb 3.5.x ?
|
i think u first need to upgrade to vbulletin 3.7 in order to use this converter...
new version works perfect! |

You need to upgrade 3.7 first, so you've got the new tag tables in your database. You also need to keep the Zoints tag table. Glad to see the new version is working :) |
We de-Zointed our forums several months ago. But I did like how the Zoints tagging created new tags since we use the NNTP Gateway that imports Usenet Newsgroup messages. We then ran the Zoints tagging against those imported messages.
Question: Can both the Zoints tagging and new vb 3.7 tagging systems co-exist on an ongoing basis where we first run Zoints tagging and then run vb tagging via this mod (say, weekly)? Or, is this mod normally to be run on a one-time basis and then discontinue the prior Zoints tagging? Please advise. Thanks. -- Rik |
