yaBB SE to vB converter · **Released**: 02-12-2003

I'm glad to sharing the script which I wrote for the import from yaBB SE.
It is tested on vB 2.2.9 and yaBB SE 1.4.0.

Just copy to your site, change settings.php and run yabbse2vb.php
You will see the instruction then.

Please use english language. German language is not updated there.

Use for your OWN RISK.

Special thanks to "Television Board.de (Boothby)" for the yaBB to vB converter.
My script is based on that.

Try replacing it with this line:

mail("$member[1]","'$username': '$password'"," Your temporary password:\n $password");

It appears $member[1] is the index that is assigned to the user's email, so try that. However, this is only from a couple glances at the code. Try it out on a dummy YaBBSE at first like with just a couple of users or something.

Thanks for your reply fury.

I tried running the script and it only converted a handful of threads and posts and no members

I tried it on yabbse ver 1.5 and vb ver 2.3.0. I think this may have something to do with it. Although I asked over at vb.com and they said 2.2.9 and 2.3.0 are very similar and it should effect it too much. Could this be the reason?

Thanks,
Kez

2.2.9 and 2.3.0 are fairly similar - there are some new functions, templates and XSS fixes in 2.3.0 that aren't in 2.2.9, but the database schema for members, posts, threads is unchanged, in other words a converter built for 2.2.9 should technically work for 2.3.0 as well.

Without the original author of the hack, I wouldn't know where to start. I don't know YaBB SE. Sorry, but it looks like everyone is stuck until ssc sees this thread.

any fixes for my problems?

I gave up on this.. I used phpBB to convert my yabbse then converted phpBB to vB with the given converters... worked fine... This hack was just way too buggy and demanded too much time rewriting it.. I wouldn't recommend anyone to use it..

YaBBSE -> phpBB -> vB is the best way to go.
