phpbb2.0.11 // smf 1.0.2 --> S9y - converters needed

Post by Mefisto »

Hello,

first thx for this great Software. :D

I have a question: Is there a way to convert a phpbb2-MySql-database to s9y? So that the first topics of the board are an entry in the blog, the answers to the topics are comments? And can the users be converted, too?

This would be interesting for smf-boards, too.

Did someone manage to do this?

Thx for reply, :D

Alright, I just committed a PHPBB importer.

However I think that should be sufficient - I don't use SMF and haven't yet heard of those. But anyone skileld with a bit PHP looking at our phpBB importer should be able to create an importer for SMF easily.

The importer is in include/admin/phpbb.inc.php - will be in the snapshot of today.
