UPDATE: Please make sure to read the last posts. The beginning of the thread is kinda old, so please don't think this is how it works. Read the last posts.

----------------------------------

Hello. This is my first time posting here, so I hope I make a good first impression

Anyways...I just finished my phpBB 1.4.0 Convertor Utility, allthough I don't have an actual phpBB 1.4.0 DB to test it on. All I did was use a DB with 2 forums, one topic, and one post

. Anyways, if you have phpBB 1.4.0, or any other kind of phpBB (Convert it to 1.4.0, of course

), please please help me test this.

If you find an error or some way of crashing or messing up the process, please tell me what happened. Also, if you could send me a copy of the database you are using, that would be greatly appreciated. Please don't think I'll steal your PWs, because they are MD5 encoded.

Known Bugs:

Does not make private forums private while converting

When it is converting, all the user passwords are changed to a different md5-encoded string. I plan to change this later.

I know it isn't very user friendly. Also, please don't take any part of this code without my permission. I worked really hard on it. Thanks a bunch.

Please post anything you have to say about this below.

someone please tell me where to download this hack. I clicked "install this hack" in the hacks section and nothing happened. Where are the files? If this is a stupid question, please go easy on me - I'm new.

I'd like to import my phpBB to vb. Unfortunately, my host will not allow one username to have access to two db's! What can I do?!

Nebula · #**185** 03-28-2002, 12:22 AM

heh, being the really nice guy I am (hehe

), you can send me the phpBB database (no worries, I'm not in this to steal your board, just look at all my happy customers before you!

). Make a dump of your phpBB database, .ZIP it, and if it's under 3MB, you can email it to me at Nebula_DJ@softhome.net. If it's over, upload it somewhere, and mail me the link

But bare with me - I am SO TOTALLY NEW at all of this. Like one month into it.

Can you explain to me what you will do from there?

Thanks so much!

Dean

sure, no problem. I'll load the dump onto my server, turn it myself into vBulletin format, dump that, and send it back to you

EDIT: I'll have to get back to you in the morning, I'm off to sleep.

Nebula · #**188** 04-02-2002, 04:10 PM

glad to hear the process worked out.

I got an email from deanger saying it worked

deanger · #**189** 04-02-2002, 04:52 PM

Can't begin to tell you the grief it saved me.

Nebula · #**190** 04-02-2002, 04:55 PM

hehe, glad to hear it

Just to confirm, can the script import all necessary data such as the members and threads from phpBB Gold?

Thanks

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
