SMF Version: SMF 1.1 RC3
HI,

I'm using IPB 2.0.4 but wanna change to SMF. Please tell me what I have to do to convert IPB database without errors.

Thanks a lot,

Have you tried the IPB2 converter on the downloads page? If so, what errors are you getting?

Please make sure you also read the Converting to SMF section in the online manual.

Hi,

Thanks for fast respond.

I'm using Vietnamese language for IPB (UTF-8) then when I converted to SMF, there have font errors occur like this:
hxxp:diendan.vnunited.com/smf/ [nonactive]

Can you tell me how to restore the big database without font errors?

Thanks a lot,

P.S: Can SMF 1.0.9 upgradable to 1.1.x ?

Yes, you can upgrade to 1.1 RC3 from 1.0.9. However, since you're using UTF-8 with IPB, your best option would be to install 1.1 RC3 with UTF-8 support (one of the options when you first install it) and convert after that. That should minimize the font errors.
