I've converted my phpBB2 board to SMF and things seem to be working.
I had to fiddle with the converter a little:

The phpBB2 board has the attachment mod, which is largely correct...BUT...

Image attachments do not display in SMF as inline images.
The board config is set to do that, and new posts do that correctly.
But posts that were converted do not display attachments correctly as images, they display as links to files.

I've dug around in the database and I can't find a database setting or field that might cause this to occur. Can someone point me in the right direction? I'll try to fix the converter.

I just tried the new converter scheme for 1.1 and it apparently fails the same way.

thanks,

Go to Admin -> Attachments and avatars -> File Maintenance -> Maintain (next to the file size). I think you'll be able to repair it over there. :)

Thanks. I'll look into that as well.

I have fixed the converter so it does it correctly during conversion. See my fix over here:
