is the vbarticle hack still available for 3.5

if so, are there problems with it and is it supported?

if not supported or ported to 3.5, but available in a lower version, is it ok to use it and get it ported on my own?

if no to all of the above, is there any other article hack or commercial article database for vB?

As far as I'm concerned this project is dead ...

I need it too, I have hundreds of articles stuck in a DB. Seems like there is a large demand. I want to stay with vbarticles, but if The Geek wrote a tranfer script to his articles system, I would move everything over.

I'm sure if you pay him he might port it.

I've contacted him via email but haven't heard anything. I would pay.

Based on how cinq stored the articles, you can simply use phpmyadmin to pull the entire article in one copy>paste action.

Do you have phpmyadmin on your server? If you do just carefully open up the forum database and you should have a table called articles or something. Browse that table and open up the articles and copy and paste the articles out.

You could ask the geek and he might even have an importer or better instructions on his site.
