Hallo ....
I hope someone can help me,
I am useing the invision powerboard ver 3.0.2, and I want to switch over to SMF 2.0.1, I've tried all the conversion programs, and I keep getting an error message. The converter keeps hanging while trying to convert the members, The first line. Also, when I finish up with the conversion I can'nt log into my SMF anymore, the SMF_members sql was emtied

Has any body got a good converter for me that does work

After trying al the converters hier on the site and all the modifications on these servers I stil have'nt found one that works, still desperate to switch over to SMF, I tried something diferent. I rememberd reading somewhere that someone sugested first installing vBulletin, convert IPB to vBulletin, and then convert vBulletin back to SMF. I was a bit sceptic at first, but tried it just the same, and it works without a hitch. You do have to reasighn your admins and moderators, but that only took a few minutes.

I'm running the script on a test server now I have bouth versions, IPB 3.0.2 and SMF 2.0.1
For those that are interested in seeing the result IPB 3.0.2  hxxp:de-beste-trackers.com [nonactive] and SMF 2.0.1 hxxp:de-beste-trackers.com/SFM/index.php [nonactive]
