[SMF Converter] IPB 3.0

<< < (3/11) > >>

Thanks TE!
I tried do it by myself but I only deleted converting members.

And I see next problem - SMF doesn't have subforum functions and converted subforums are on main page.

Maybe time to add this function? ;)

huh, could you please test the attached version?

for the subforums: sure, SMF has subforum functionality.. AFAIK the converter skips the board order (parent & childs) because the structure in IPB is completely different (can't test it though, because IPB is paid software and I don't have a copy from an IPB database anymore)

--- Code: ---/* The converter will set id_cat for us based on id_parent being wrong. */
--- End code ---
but you could re-arrange the boards after the conversion.

Oh c'mon :D For these purposes you can use nulled informally ;)
I think it'll  be useful for all of us :)

PS: I'll test attached file tonight (my timezone :))

I am (unfortunately) using ipb 3_0_5, and trying to convert to SMF 2.0 RC4 (RC3 wasn't available) and I'm getting this error:

Converting members... Successful.
Converting categories... Successful.
Converting boards... Successful.
Converting topics... Successful.
Converting posts (this may take some time)...Wrong value type sent to the database. Integer expected. (id_board)

Looks like it's hanging up on the posts after a certain amount as the conversion script gets around 3K posts and dies.

hiredgunz,
in ipb3_to_smf.sql find:

--- Code: ------* {$to_prefix}messages 200
---{
--- End code ---
add after:

--- Code: ---if(empty($row['id_board']))
$row['id_board'] = 1;
--- End code ---
then restart the converter.
