Hello,

Sorry for my english, but I'm french ;)

This is my problem :

I have to start with a forum phpBB (1years)
After, I converted my phpBB 2.0.4 into IPB 1.3

After 1 years of use IPB, I decide to merge older forum.

First time : I merge a old messages on phpBB (I converted them into IPB and I merge)
Second Time : I merge a old messages on Phorum ( I converted into phpBB, after IPB and I merge)


Now, I test to convert my forum into SMF 1.0.5 and I lose all the messages which I merge :(
I have : "This topic doesn't exist on this board. "

I tested upgrade on IPB 2.0.4, no problem for upgrad. Even problem :(
Two scripts of conversion does not go (for IPB 1.3.x and IPB 2.x)

Thank you for help !

Were there any errormessages during coversion? Which converter did you use, the one from the downloadpage?
"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."

Any error messages during conversion (I tested in local)

I use converter in this page : http://www.simplemachines.org/download.php?converters

- invision_to_smf.php : I tested with IPB 1.3
- invision2_to_smf.php : with IPB 2.0.4


I will try to convert into front phpBB, then in SMF. But I would lose all my joined files :(

Does this mean you did get errormessages or you did not get errormessages?

I have an erromessages for the pools and attachements (what is normal because there are not the files on local)

I didn't get errormessages for the conversion of the messages or others.

I use this script for merge if that can help you
