I'm very interested in any update of this. But I must mention its working flawless for us (we applied all patches back several years ago) even with vb 3.8.0 beta. However, we are not involved with binaries -- just messaging.
If this is ever updated, I'd sure would like to add some suggestions and would be willing to pay for a commercial product. Regards. -- Rik |

I`d release my changed mod, but currently there`s code everywhere, no real structure. You`d need to get your hands dirty

Right now, I'm concentrating more on running a series of mysql queries to post-process the already imported messages to remove spam and junk plus clean up the looks of the messages and make them look less like Usenet and more like vBulletin. My biggest concern with the mod (as it now stands) is how slow it is importing old messages. Our host company appears to place anything about 6 months prior on older servers with slower hard drives. It can take days to import a large newsgroup (although the last six months imports in minutes). Anyway, if Kerry-Anne is also listening (and to keep on topic), I'm sure many of us that have made changes over the years could send her changes that she might be able to easily incorporate into her release? Cheers! -- Rik |

I might do that, but currently the problem with this mod that I have is that it`s really done live on the server. No real structure etc .. without some coding knowledge and some vbulletin knowledge, you wouldn`t understand how to work it.
The slow importing could be due to the fact that it uses an old nntp import class ( 2004 ), and since then there were several updates ( latest version is from 2008 ). My version is still on 2004, but I added some instances ( so it can import into max 10 boards at one time - even more if you add more instances to the sql ). I`ll work in updating this, but currently, since it`s not bringing in $$, I`m not putting it in first place. |

That is something, thanks for the generous offer.
I`m curious, what features are people interested in. As far as I`ve come till now this is what I managed to do : My version - instance conversion from the base 1 forum import mode ( basically, you can add instances and you`ll have more than 1 importer running at a time ) - fixed improper thread /post insert - added a custom module that I modified from vb.org to mass add forums - added fast fill option ( if you add new forums, the importer will fill those first ) To do so far on my list in order: 1. new nntp protocol implementation ( better OOP ) 2. antispam 3. I`m thinking of extending the mass add forums to a mass add forums+newsgroups(+pass if diff from the main logins, so you can use multiple accounts ) 4. fix user posting ( so you can post on newsgroups as well ) If we could move this to the paid/donate section, I`d gladly make time for this. |
