Hi,
Another problem with yabb and iso8859-1 to utf8.
When we need to import the yabb to smf our forum files are in iso8859-1, the solution is convert all the files of yabb to utf8, we use this .sh:
--------------
#!/bin/bash
ICONVBIN='/usr/bin/iconv' # path to iconv binary
if [ $# -lt 3 ]
then
echo "$0 dir from_charset to_charset"
exit
fi
for f in $1/*
do
if test -f $f
then
echo -e "\nConverting $f"
/bin/mv $f $f.old
$ICONVBIN -f $2 -t $3 $f.old > $f
else
echo -e "\nSkipping $f - not a regular file";
fi
done
--------------
Later we execute this .sh in the directories Messages, Boards and Members of our yabb forum to convert all the files to utf8.
The sintaxis to run the .sh are:
file.sh directory_to_convert from_characterset to_characterset
example for directory messages:
/path_of_sh/name_of_sh.sh /path_of_your_yabb_directory/Messages iso-8859-1 utf8
With this files in utf8 and the solved attachments import the conversion works fine.
Thanks for the conversion script

Regards
Lucas
