If COPPA is not used in phpBB2, it is set in phpBB3 and vice-versa.

In phpBB2, if an address is entered in "COPPA Mailing Address," it is assumed that COPPA is to be used.

The phpBB2 convertor has

Code: Select all: 'coppa_enable' => 'is_empty(coppa_mail)',

If no address is entered, is_empty returns TRUE, which sets COPPA in phpBB3 to be used.
If an address is entered, is_empty returns FALSE, which sets COPPA in phpBB3 to NOT be used.

What is needed is a function such as not_empty.

Code: Select all: function phpbb_not_empty($var) { return not(is_empty($var)); }

Actually, this is better:
In convert_phpbb20.php

Code: Select all: 'coppa_enable' => 'phpbb_is_boolean(coppa_mail)',

In functions_phpbb20.php

Code: Select all: function phpbb_is_boolean($var) { return (bool) $var; }

Even better would be to include the function in functions_convert.php. If there is is_empty, why not the opposite?

what about !is_empty()? Does the convertor catch this?

!is_empty() does work. It sets the coppa_enable config_value to 1 when phpBB2 coppa_mail is not empty, but does not enter 0 when phpBB2 coppa_mail is empty. It makes config_value blank. phpBB3 does read the blank field as not being set, so should not be a problem.
