Hi there!

I have a hompage and on that page I uses phpbb 2.0.19

Now I have uploaded XOOPS 2.0.15 and installed cbb 3.05

Is it possible to convert the phpbb 2.0.19 to cbb 3.05?

I have tried a script but that was for phpbb 2.0.20 and XOOPS 2.0.13.2 and cbb 3.04. I got a lots of errors there

Anyone that have test this before?

Edit:

Script info)
This was the valus that I entered:
Server: localhost
Usernamn: t70s.com
Password: I typed in the rigt one ;)
Phpbb databas: t70s_com
Phpbb table prefix: phpbb_
Xoops databas: t70s_com
Xoops table prefix: testar_

x-phpbb is no longer developed at bbpixel.com, koudanshi is no longer developing the module and i don't think he has any plans on doing so in the future.

i think it got too much with phpbb updates being released monthly etc. they should really get their act together at phpbb and do it properly instead of all these fixes and updates they keep hitting every1 with..

It seems that you have right. They dosen't answer my question and they dosen't have any module for download.

am I able to integrate the phpbb forum in XOOPS instead to convert it to anonther XOOPS forum?

Edit:

If the above dosen't work is there someway that I could integrate only the members so they dosen't have to login two times? But if the above dosen't work maybe this dosen't work too. :S

There is an add-on for Phpbb on their site to allow it to support LDAP - which XOOPS 2.0.14 upwards also does... so, although I've not seen it done yet, it may be possible to use logins on the two systems like this...

i don't think it would take much to modify the conversion script you mentioned in your original post.

so that it will work with 2.0.15 and cbb 3.05

u would of course need to know what DB changes etc were made from phpbb 2.0.19 > 2.0.20 and also any changes in DB from cbb 3.04 > 3.05

Now have I think a litle but it maybe dosen't work? :S

If I install phpbb 2.0.20 and cbb 3.04 but still using XOOPS 2.0.15.

Then use the script for converting. Then after I run the script I update to cbb 3.05. Can that be working?

If I understand it right so was there no changes from XOOPS 2.0.13.2 to 2.0.15 only bugfixes.
