I need a converter for ubb.threads 6.4.x. I'll be happy to act as a test board for it as well...

I suspect if you created a working ubb.threads converter, you'd have a lot of converts. Ubb.threads has really hit the wall in terms of providing useful, timely, and bug-free newer versions.



I too need the ubb.threads 6.4.x(2) conveter. I purchased and then tried to install their new version and they can not even convert their own forum. BYE BYE infopop! 

I  am willing to pay for the converter if anybody has some free cycles!

UPDATE May 15 2005
The UBB->SMF converter from Grudge works like a charm!

I upgraded my YABB 1.4 board to YABB2. When I found Simple Machines, I liked it much, much better. I took down by YABB 2 board and started fresh with a SMF board But, I have about 10,000 posts in YABB2 format. I would just like a utility that will convert the YABB2 posts to SMF so they can be added to my existing SMF board. I don't care about converting members, passwords, or anything else. YABB2 RC2  has been released (final release is just around the corner) and the devs say that there won't be any further changes to the message format.

It would be so nice if there was a convertor for Mercuryboard v. 1.1.3.
I would only need my topics and polls but forums would also be great.

If anyone can help me.. i would be saved!

(if got my mercuryboard on an other isp)

I would LOVE it if someone created a converter for the Web-App program (a flatfile Perl portal system).  http://www.web-app.org/ ... Including the forum boards/threads/posts *AND* if a all possible any and all members/profiles/IM's....

Anybody out there willing to take a stab?
Just a lil' ole QH gal....

Hi,

Although there is a coverter for phpBB2 there doesn't seem to be a converter that will work with phpNuke.

I've tried the methods suggested on the forum here without success. Has anyone got any ideas or is there anyone writtinf a script for this ??

Miraenda

rotor, couldn't you convert the phpBB board in Php-Nuke to regular phpBB first and then run the phpBB to SMF converter?

Next, on a completely different topic, as of tonight, I've been given the task to convert a punBB board to SMF for a small private forum community to which I belong.  I'm one of the admins and we originally chose to go with punBB back in like December 2004 from a phpBB board in Php-Nuke that was running on one member's server because the guy basically disappeared and we couldn't get ahold of him.  We just wanted a simple board at that time that didn't have a bunch of options so it would supposedly be easier to run.  If I had it to do over, I would have obviously chosen SMF back then, but I didn't realize that the extra components SMF has doesn't really make it more complex to manage lol

Anyway, to make the long story short, I have to convert this board per request of the other admin to SMF because the guy who has the forum now also isn't around to fix things when they go broken.  The version is a highly modded punBB 1.2.3.  I dont care so much about the mods, I just care about getting all the posts and perhaps the polls.  We have a backup every few days via a cron to my machine of the database, and I'm not sure any longer if I have access to the server the punBB is running on.  So I would love to see a punBB converter if possible and be really grateful to anyone who can do one or if SMF itself could provide one.

Thanks.

I would like to see this punbb->smf converter too !

I've used MyBB before, but I dont think it can compare to SMF. Here's the website: hxxp:mybboard.com [nonactive], I think it might be a good idea for a converter.

~ Gazmanafc

EDIT: Realised that I forgot to put the .com to the adress  :-[

I'm currently using myBB... migrated from phpBB... and I would have to agree. After taking a look at SMF, I am kicking myself for not migrating to SMF. I'm starting a new forum and I will be using SMF right out the gate with it. It's amazing how feature-rich SMF is compared to other software out there.

roxpace

Why can't also SMF be the first to convert data into a common data format ? What I know there is no such one today, then just make one with XML which all should be able to read in case someone wanna use other forum software.

With a common data format also all import and export would be much more easy since you only have to respect one format instead of hundreds.
Always keep an eye on the latest from me at ...

Because no one will agree on what a "common format" is.  Some forums are threaded, some forums aren't.  Everyone stores things slightly differently.

Look at Snitz.  Look at phorum.

  • SMF 1.0.x (to merge two forums)

I'm intrigued by the idea to merge two SMF forums, but how exactly would it work? I mean, I'd assume that it'd merge two databases into one, but what about if a member used the same username on each, for example the main admin, would it take the two users and merge the accounts into one along with the posts and threads, or would they be two separate users?

Request for completion of phpNuke to SMF converter.
Personally I run phpNuke 7.5 and 7.6 on my sites.

--Striker.

The merger would not support having people with accounts the same name as on the other forum.... but it's a complicated process.

LordStriker,

The phpNuke converter should do everything already. I wrote it with 7.7 but it should work on 7.5 and 7.6 I'd guess.

Hello together;)

I found finally the forum, what I need for my HP.

Now however the problem is my insisting on YABB2 runs: (

Is there ALPHA/BETA-Version of a converter??

I have over 7000 contributions which I not to lose do not want.  :'(

great

Sorry for my bad english :(

elvenjess

I can provide a database dump for OpenBB if needed.. :)

savasweb


Oldiesmann

elven - a database dump would indeed be helpful since we can't download openBB at the moment...

savas - I'll install punBB on a test site sometime soon and see what I can come up with...

Oldiesmann - remember to check CVS. I have already written a converter for punBB - but it will only work with 1.1 I'm afraid.
