Desperate to convert from XMB 1.9.11 to SMF
IchBin™:
Getting close! It looks like I was able to get the converter to complete. The only issue's I can see right now, is that we need to convert the way they use quotes in their posts to the way SMF does. A few more fixes and that should hopefully have it working. I'm hoping to post the updated files today.
IchBin™:
Give these files a try and see if they work for you.
If they don't work, please post the text on the page where it says what step you are on. Also post the URL your browser shows too. Hopefully these will work.

Error: Converting posts (this may take some time)...The database value you're trying to insert does not exist: poster_email
Man I had such high hopes. So what should I do now? Your advice is super appreciated.
N. N.:
Mauldraine,
I'm sorry for missing that, I actually experienced it too working with your database last night and got it fixed, but for some reason IchBin didn't experience it, it worked fine for him, and without replicating an error we can't fix it. :D So the fix wasn't in the currently posted converter. (given the size of your database and how long it takes to complete a conversion, IchBin has worked a lot of time on it, and sometimes with partial conversion processes to check only one bit or another, that bit may have passed during one of those.)
Please, give a try to the attached package. Meanwhile we'll test further the results and be ready to support the conversion of your forums.
Mauldraine:
It's alive ...
ALIVE
Muwahahahaha. I cannot even begin to express my sincere appreciation for all of your efforts. My God! I was really worried that I wasn't going to be able to keep the xmb forum data. I'm sure through your testing you found out that we have over 100,000 posts, and I would have just cried if I lost it all. Thank you again and again.
