need help with joomlaboard

I thought I did use that converter. The admin account was not transferred correctly in the first attempt which I made with the old converter from the DL section. For the second attempt with your new converter, I had to empty the message post tables first to redo them. I probably need to do the same for the user tables.

What are the steps for erasing the result of a bad conversion without dropping all tables and reinstalling smf?

Use the TRUNCATE table_name; to empty the table.  The converter alrady truncates the tables.

If you can give me access to phpMyAdmin I can take a look at it and fix that issue with the admin account.

right, I truncated the table with the message posts. Do I need to do that with the user tables too, or are you saying the converters does this itself? I fixed the admin account by changing the id/rank from 0 to 1. That seemed to do the trick, if I'm not missing anything. This is the first time I've seen the smf db structure...

Yea changing the ID_GROUP to 1 in SMF fixes it but I'm looking into having the account converted with the correct membergorup.

Jay, I tested again, and the converter and the sql file you recommended above do not properly remove the backslashes or transfer the administrator.

In regards to the administrator account I haven't been able to get a test install up to see how SimpleBoard handles the membergroups.  I'll look into the slashes stuff.
