YaBB to vB Converter · **Released**: 07-08-2002

This script I was written some month ago. It was my first script written in php and mysql. Some people questioned me for this script, so I want to release it now.

I did my best translating it to english. It is now available in German and English (sometimes)

I tested it with:
YaBB 1 Gold and vB 2.2.5
and
"German YaBB Coders" v1.1 Build 3.4 and vB 2.2.6

Hello All!
You can try to use beta version of the yaBB SE 2 vB converter.
It is based on yaBB 2 vB converter.

Success!

YaBB 1.2 Gold
vB 2.3.0

Converted the users with no problems and the posts.

The only thing that looks funny in the posts is the way it handles quotes but I can live with that

Thanks for this converter!!

side note.. the path to your yabb data is relative to the directory the php files are installed.. NOT your home dir i.e. /usr/local/blah/blah

I've used this hack and am having some trouble in getting it to do what I want it to. I just need a decent how-to on the conversion procedure, do I create identical forum section names in my VBB script and then run the converter or use a blank VBB database with no forum sections installed or what??

This is a stand-allone-script. You can use it without your vB-script.

In settings.php you can choose in witch sub-forum you wish to insert your yabb-data.

First you have to convert members-data, next the posts and forums-data.

Boothby, much appreciated, I'll let you know how I get on!

Hey all, I would possibly be looking to convert a board running YaBB 1 Gold - SP 1.3.1 to vB 2.3.2, would this be possible?

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