Converter Requests?

[[Unknown]]

Grudge, I'd suggest kiping a lot from the YaBB converter.  E-Blah is very similar to YaBB, or was last I looked.

Oh, fine, don't let me finish writing the FUDforum converter.  Oh well, I hadn't spent that much time on it yet.

I didn't know you were writing one! I only wrote it today so feel free to rewrite it and the like. FUD forum is horrible in the way it uses flat files anyway

Well, I'm working on IkonBoard right now, and I just did Zorum.  I cleaned up a few things in the other converters, too...

Same! I'd like to convert our forum from myBB.

Well, my converter has been running since last night, and it seems still to have made 0 progress (phpbb2 to SMF).  I'd love it if one of the developers could give me a clue as to what -might- be going wrong here.  I've done some PHP and SQL code before and might be able to track it down with some guidance.

Thanks

Which version are you using, specifically?  How many posts do the two forums have?  Can you try this query, please:

SELECT COUNT(ID_MSG)
FROM smf_messages;

What is phpMyAdmin?

This will tell you how many posts have been converted.  If the number is increasing, the converter is taking forever but still working.  If it's not, it has bombed.

Is there a converter for JUST the skins/themes?  I'm contacting the designer as we speak, but he only makes themes for phpbb and phpnuke.

[Grudge]

I'm afraid not - converting themes would be very difficult to do automatically. That said, if he's a designer, I'd think he would easily be able to adapt to SMF's system as a template for a whole page is in one nicely commented file...

I've done the YaBB 2 converter (since I had no internet for twenty four hours, and ended up with some free time for the first time in a long while...)

Anyone willing to test it?

I wish! lol  I doubt he would take the time to convert it.  Sort of a hot designer and probably doesn't have the time, maybe not even the interest since he seems to favor phpbb.  BUT... he gave me permission to convert it, and it's an OUTSTANDING theme!  I don't have the skills to do the conversion myself, though.  His only stipulation, naturally, is to keep his copyright/credits and links.

You can see it here on one of my (innactive) forums:  http://www.ghostinthelens.com/inthedarkroom

He also has another awesome theme I use here (also innactive): http://www.thecorridors.com/darkinfinitum

But if I had the skills---heck yeah, I'd do it.  Beautiful themes, both of them.

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.

Where can this be downloaded?
I have fought for three days trying every trick suggested in the support threads and frankly, it's quite hard to decipher which ones of them work and which ones give errors. Obviously a lot of people have managed to convert their forums with the given instructions but I must be too dumb for it or something. I'd be thrilled if either a phpNuke converter  could be found from downloads (especially if there is one), or clear How-To instructions posted somewhere.

[Grudge]

The converter is attached to the first post of the topic called "1.1 Converters"

Unbelievable... I guess I was just too dumb to find it
Thanks!
