Hey there, and welcome to the SMF Community! Hope you decide to switch to SMF, it's great!

It shouldn't be that tricky at all :) And if you can't get it, there are always people who can assist you

AFAIK there is no proboards converter available .. there was one but the crawler converter was removed per proboards request:

Even if you are able to fund such a script (rumor has it that it's still floating around the web somewhere), you might not get anywhere using it - since Proboards prohibits the usage of such scripts, they could very well shut down your board if they find you trying to use it, meaning you'd lose everything that didn't get converted anyway.
