Heya everyone. This is a beta release of my importer that converts phpBB2 (RC4 or greater) into vBulletin. It should convert into vBulletin 2.2.0 or greater.

To install the script:[list=1][*]Download bbimport_phpbb2.php from this post (You can only download it if you have entered your username in the vBulletin Members Area, DO NOT PRIVATE MESSAGE ME ASKING ME TO SEND IT TO YOU!!)[*]Open your FTP program of choice, and upload it to the /importers directory in your vBulletin folder (You may need to create this folder if you have never run an importer before)[*]Log into your vBulletin Control Panel[*]On the left navigation pane, find the 'Import & Maintenance' section, and click on 'BB Import Systems'[*]In the page that loads, select 'phpBB2 RC4+', and click 'Begin Import'[*]Follow the instructions from there[/list=1]
Post your results here! Let me know anything that goes wrong, or your success story

Current Version: 0.9.5.2

good luck, I hope everything goes well. Also, if you have a lot of announcements, BBCode is not parsed (little bug I found today. Doesn't mean BBCode won't work, but some may not show up correctly.)

I may release a new version soon.

Nope, haven't figured out how user groups work. Too stupid of a system

OK, I actually read through all 7 pages and I figured out that I am NOT the only person getting timed-out. Seems to be something occuring recently or what?

Anyway, this importer does a much better job than the official one; if only it didn't time out like it does...

The [size] convert routine has been bad since the start...and I've been considering removing it. It appears I will have to, since it's causing problems for people.

I have a problem with this script - although it worked perfectly from phpBB to vB 2.2.7, the end moderator column has assigned every moderator to every forum.

Also I used the same username when setting up my vB, as the one I had on phpBB, so now there are "2" of me - which one is safe to delete?

Thanx for a great hack btw
