I am converting a huge website to XOOPS from Nuke Evo and I am not sure how the membership database works when converting over. Nuke Evo has just one registration that works on both the nuke stuff and the phpbb forums. I understand it to be the same with XOOPS and XPHPBBI Module. So do I import the membership portion of the nuke evo database into the XOOPS database and all the accounts will be intact? We currently have 1500 accounts registered, most of them can be deleted but due to a bug in our Nuke Evo install I can't even delete users from the admin panel.

Though Nuke was the great granddad of Xoops, new features may have been added etc......i don't know of a conversion script, yet the MySQL should be similar.....So you would need to see how a XOOPS member looks in MySQL and then how the Nuke member matches it and adjust the MySQL to fit....

I use the import users script to import from a CSV. Unless you modify it it just imports usernames emails and passwords, but it works.

Where is this script? It sounds like it would work for me.


Nuke is a mess, it's impossible for me to locate things in the directory tree. Our site is a constant target of hackers who love to drill holes in Nuke. Nuke's modules are confusing to work with and edit.

Xoops makes so much more sense to me. I used to use it on one of my sites but I switched to a blog and have forgotten how everything works.

Your best bet is to export your evo users database and alter the tables to satisfy XOOPS then import. I did XOOPS -> evo that way about a year ago and it worked fine. It's just a matter of dropping/renaming tables.

And to add my 2 cents: I would personally rethink that decision to switch. Technocrat completely ditched all nuke code for the upcoming 3.0 evo release.

The only part I want to transfer is the user membership and the forum posts. The rest I am rebuilding.

I found instructions on renaming the tables so I did that and then imported them. I didn't get any errors on importing but when I attempted to sign in with my username it didn't recognize my password.

Highly likely that I am missing a key step because I have not done this before.

I exported data from nuke table
I edited the fields to be the XOOPS version
I went into phpmyadmin and renamed the existing table
I then changed the exported data to create the name of the table I just renamed
I used the exported data to build the new data
I then imported the data into the table-INSERT INTO `xoops_users`

I thought I saved the code after I made my changes but I guess I didn't.

you can't just rename the tables... they have a completely different structure. You literally have to examine the tables side by side and manually edit your evo table to satisfy XOOPS needs..
