After a long waiting without any new info, I finally decided trying to create a pseudo-handy procedure to import all the posts from Ikonboard v2.19b to VBulletin 2.2 database.
I tryed out the great job made by LoB, but with posts I found a lot of problems as each new forum I was upgrading, all the threads overwrote the previous ones, so....
Besides, the first and the last posters of a thread are swapped and when I change forum in the import procedure (source dir and target id...), some posts are merged from the previous forum ...

So, I tried to do the same thing 'manually' via SQL, just like I did with the user data. Infact I saved all the user .cgi files and imported to an Excel sheet, managed it for a while to cleanup and wrote a sql script to upload all the users (1000+) at once ...

Hopefully, it'll the same thing with posts and threads. Actually, they are the same way database fields and not more, aren't they ?

Well, I'm here only to ask someone the exact flow (I simulated with a manual post) and the relationships between all the tables involved in that procedure.
I guess it'll only affect the 'post' and 'thread' mySql tables, but didn't hunderstood why in the conv_posts.php I'm trying to analyze, all the updates are made by a record replaceing.



As you can see, I'm enough desperate to gain into that intention... :greedy:
Thanks a lot.
