PHPNuke to Xoops Conversion

I've seen the post over at: https://xoops.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=31111&forum=27&post_id=148947

Are there any conversion scripts out in the wild? I'm looking to convert a fairly large phpnuke site to XOOPS and consider it a daunting task.

priorities would be: members, articles, and reviews. im deliberating dropping forum support altogether.

thanks for the help...

i've found the link and was just on my over to post it here :)

https://xoops.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=34227&start=0

ironically, it's the forums I was thinking of leaving out.

reviews and articles are the real beast.

if this handles moving members over though that would would be great - although script is for a phpbb conversion not a nuked phpbb conversion which has several other layers.

certainly is a good start though.

Any "how-to" convert databases with phpmyadmin?

(not how to use phpmyadmin, but what changes to do in db..)

I don't think you can really use PhpMyAdmin for the conversion. A conversion requeries the translation of usernames into usernumbers; search/replace code for the forums, changing datetime fields etc. etc. etc.

I am writng conversion script(s) from MyphpNuke to XOOPS and have found it easier to write one script per table to convert. The scripts output SQL which gets pasted into PhpMyAdmin

Actually, yes you can, but it's ugly and it takes forever.
