Appologies if this is in the wrong section....

I've currently got a problem with someone I've installed a site for. Their site uses the XOOPS PHPBB hack to enable PHPBB to work.

Unfortunately they've decided they dont want a hacked forum - and they'd rather have NewBB - despite it having its faults.

Is there anyway at all I can convert from the hacked version, back to Newbb?

Please help - i'm at my wits end with this customer :(

Wonder if anyone can help on this at all?

I've asked at the forum module site - but no one seems to know :(

Thanks in advance

Are you wanting to just convert the content over?

These may help from the download section:

Hope this is of some help.

I appreciate the help Tom - but its actually the bbpixel hack of PHPBB i'm using... basically I want to be able to re-convert the forum to the standard newbb one for one of my sites.

Any further ideas at all anyone?

What I am wondering - is as PHPBB has been modified to fit around XOOPS - is if the data is still in the original Newbb format.... If thats the case, then I may literally be looking at just turning on newbb - and turning the mod off...

But surely that would be too easy?

All help appreciated :)

Since the topic is going already I'll ask my question. I've got a PostNuke install running pnphpbb2 and would like to be able to move it to xoops. Anyone know if it can be done? I don't think bbpixel can do it.

Hello all!
I have some problems with this convertor.
My phpBB database is almost 14 MB. So, at 5th step, copy topics, I have this error:
Error

SQL
-query :  

INSERT INTO xoops_bb_topicstopic_idtopic_titletopic_postertopic_timetopic_viewstopic_repliestopic_last_post_idforum_id 
SELECT p.topic_idp.topic_titlet.xoops_bb_uidp.topic_timep.topic_viewsp.topic_repliesp.topic_last_post_idp.forum_id
FROM phpbb_topics p
temp_uid_map t
WHERE p
.topic_poster t.phpbb_uid 

MySQL said

#1062 - Duplicate entry '2' for key 1


Since I'm not very familiar with mysql..please help me :), what can I do to correct this issue ?

Regards
