SMF Version: SMF 1.1.1
Hello!

First off THANK you a TON for a great method of converting phpbb to SMF.  This is HUGE! :)  Glad to get rid of phpbb to be quite honest! :)

The convert went well except for the following issue with signatures.  It seems that [img] and <img> tags get mangled when converted.  Here are a couple examples for your review:

hxxp:wow.roa-guild.org/v4/smf/index.php?topic=2404.0 [nonactive]

Also, just in case I remove that test installation before you guys get a chance to review the issue they look like this:

Code (bbcode and html seem to be in error) Select

img]http://wow.roa-guild.org/sig/nimua.png[/img]
img src="http://wow.roa-guild.org/sig/cuppy.png">


So, it appears to be a simple fix -- (I say that lightly after looking over the conversion script :) )

Anything I can do to assist please let me know.

Thanks Much,
ds

this is a bug in the older conversion script , it's fixed in the latest one which is avaliable from this topic

Oh, Thank you Prodigal.  I grabbed the version I used on the download page -- thought that would be the latest and greatest and my searches didn't find that topic.  Anyhow, thanks again!

Conversion complete!  Looks good so far!  I only had to convert 21,000 posts though.  Hah!  :)
