Miscellaneous Hacks - ImpEx Module: Xenforo

This is a Xenforo module for ImpEx, the vBulletin Import System,
it does allow you to import a Xenforo Database into a vBulletin 4 installation.

Currently, the following data will be imported:

• Usergroups
• Users including Avatars
• Forums
• Threads including Polls
• Posts
• Smilies
• Attachments
• Conversations
  As vBulletin does not have an equivalent to the Conversations feature in Xenforo, conversations will be converted to Private Messages in vBulletin.
  Please note that any attachments used in conversations will get lost as vBulletin does not (yet) support attachments in PMs.

This module has been developed for Xenforo 1.0.4, but it should also work with Xenforo 1.1.X.
Please not that Xenforo 1.1.X features (Profile Fields, Thread Prefixes, etc.) are not yet supported.

If there is enough interest I might add those features in a later release.

Warning
This module is BETA and has not been tested extensively - use it at your own risk.
If you find bugs, please report them!

Important - See Post #87 about an important potential security issue and fix if you use this.

Sorry, but as said before - I can't help you without access to your server.

Maybe someone has an idea?

Line 510 of 000.php should be

PHP Code:

UPDATE {$Target_tableprefix}forum 


instead of

PHP Code:

UPDATE {$tableprefix}forum

ImpEx must bring in tons of customers for vBulletin ... Great work guys

IMO all the {$tableprefix} are unnecessary, because xf doesn't have a table prefix

Hmm ... at least my sample database does have one (xf_).

It is not possible to just import XenForo passwords into vBulletin as XenForo password hashes are incompatible with vBulletin, you would have to create an Addon to handle authentication differently than vBulletin does by default.

Although this would be possible, it requires quite a bit of work.

That's the standard prefix which is hardcoded in the entire code and used for all standard xf tables

Hardoced or User-Defined doesn't really matter, after all it is a prefix

Thank you so much Andreas...this was one of the biggest things stopping me from bringing my main site back to vb...when I am finished setting up my new vb version of the site I will give this a try.

Thanks again
