Title: Powerboard - SMf
Post by: xenios on December 29, 2007, 15:37:23

Hello!!

I was wondering if there is any way to move my data from my smf forum to the powerboard of Elxis.

Does anybody know how??

I have found SMF to FireBoard converter. Since PowerBoard is based on FireBoard, I believe it can be converted. I  will do some changes, and test it on my localhost, but I can't promise I can pull it out, so you might give it a try. Two heads are smarter then one. ;)
Thank you for using PB.

EDIT: I have read the code, and I think it could be done, but I'm too busy these days. So either wait, or try to do it yourself.

Oh, sorry... I didn't want to post a link to concurrent CMS, but if you google SMF to FireBoard, you can find it in seconds. Most of work is simply the change of table names from jos_sometning to elx_something. But, as I said, I don't have thee time to work on it right now...  :(

Hi a_xenias,
I haven't forgot you, I'm just too busy these days.
I currently have no time to install SMF, create fake users, posts... etc. If you have some sample DB with some fake users and posts to send me, I could give it a try. It would help me to have some sample  DB with some entries in order to test the converter.
