[RELEASE V2] Phorum import php script

Hi everybody.

This is a PHP-Script that imports Phorum Threads/Posts.

I successfully tested it with Phorum 3.1.2 and it worked perfectly.
Now YOU give it a try :-)

It imports all Threads and Posts of a single Phorum into the vB of your choice.

If it doesn't work for you or your changed it to a better script, post it here.

Greetz, ABO

ps.s Change the Database settings on top of the script and YES rename it to .PHP :-)

*** NEW VERSION OF SCRIPT !!! ***
Now correctly updates lastposter.

Ran the import script and updated sequences and it looked fine until I started looking over the target vb forum. Seems that I'm missing some threads or portions of threads. Doesn't seem to be any pattern to it. Missing the first thread on one post although thread subject/title is still there but no content. Other threads (some with attachments) are gone too.

Any ideas? Using phorum v3.2.11 importing into vb 2.0.3.

Also, what is the proper way to shut down the target vb forum?

Thanks,

Thor
