Has anyone developed an import script for Discuss?

Oh yes ... that would be really wonderful!

I really need this hack too!

Can some one help us with this? I also need an import script from Discuss (www.discusware.com).

Still nothing, does anbody have a solution for this?....

I am trying to work on it, but I'm still at the beginning because I just switched to vbulletin and I am thinking about the best way to do it.

well i it did finally by exporting the threads and user file as csv files from discuss, then importing them into ms excel, sorting and adding the missing colums needed for vbulletin and then saving it again as a new csv file and then uploading it with phpmyadmin to the vbulletin databank. it took me approx. 1 week for 6000 posts with approx. 200 users.

I never want to have to do that again though ;)

Can you go a bit more in detail? I'm having problems trying to import discus into vbulletin.

Ok, I've been able to import discus into vbulletin.
I have used three scripts I wrote, one for the users, one for the topics and one for the posts. It worked fine, there were just some minor glitches (like some anonymous posts and so on). It required one day of work to write the scripts and to import into vbulletin.

Oh well ... fantastic!

Are you willing to share your scripts with us?
