Nuke to vBulletin (Transfer Users)
 

This little hack switches all your users from PHPNuke to vBulletin easily :bunny: Post questions here, ICQ, AIM, or MSN Support will NOT be answered!

Note: This will not overwrite current members :D

This only works on a clean install (Empty the user and userfield tables) :hurt:

Version: Nuke to vB [Final]

Nice hack! I wish it was released when I used vB...but yeah, it's cool.

Does this hack work for Postnuke? Postnuke is a fork of PHPNuke and at this point in the develelopment is a complete rewrite of PHPNuke. If you could do something similar for postnuke, a lot of people would use your hack and be thankful.

It should be able to transfer users. If the postnuke user table is the same, it should be able to transfer.

However I recommend you check to make sure the structure is the same.

I'll have to check with Ted since I helped him in this. But I'm pretty sure it works.

I'll check that for you when I wake up :classic:

Nice hack, but many peoples goals is to achieve full nuke and vb integration hehe, yours seems to be different :)

Anyways good hack

Nice av drkfusion......

ya a vb and nuke intagration would be way to hard since each hack modual would have to be edited to keep the intagration going.

Using the vb to phpnuke alpha hack, you can possibly integrate them. However it isn't a pure integration, but at least it works :)

Two things people should know about this revised edition.

1) You don't need a clean install of vBulletin anymore. If you have existing users from Both PHP-Nuke and vBulletin, PHP-Nuke users will be transfered into vBulletin regardless of how many users they have in vBulletin.

Nuke users will be added after your current vbulletin users without affecting posts, threads, forums, and whatever data that is currently in vBulletin and PHP-Nuke. I have tested it for every possible scenario I can think of. If you have a scenario, please post it here and I'll see if I can simulate the scenario and make the necessary adjustments to the script.

2) An error in the previous script was the improper transfering of userids should you have existing users. I have fixed that however it requires access to global.php therefore you are now required to upload the file to

/admin

As always, please make backups your nuke database and your vBulletin database in case something happens. Ted and I will not be responsible if this script causes damage to vBulletin, PHP-Nuke, and anything not mentioned herein.
