phpBB • Free and Open Source Forum Software

To link Joomla and phpBB there is Jfusion (used for the joomla website for example). But in my case, the website is used to display categories of articles and these articles could be also present in the forum for discussion about it. I would like to have the same content of the joomla in the forum i...

Hi all, I have a website under joomla with Jcomments and a forum under MyBB. I would like to fusion both under a phpBB forum. I already convert the MyBB forum to phpBB (style under development). Now, I would like to begin the conversion of joomla. I didn't find any convertor for this, even for phpBB...

Internal links solved using this method :
viewtopic.php?f=46&t=1925545

Ok, after a lot of time I finally solved the problem regarding the attachment pictures inserted in posts (or at least I hope ^^"). The modification is really minor but I spend too much time on this and I think it is really disappointing to see that for this huge community there is no support fo...

@MaFeSa
On my side the conversion goes to the end even with this error. I just checked the box for the refreshing process and let the conversion to be done automatically.

@swstarone
Maybe by launching xampp with administrator permissions.

In "/install/install_convert.php" just after the credits at the beginning, try adding: @set_time_limit(0); @ini_set('memory_limit', '256M'); @ini_set('upload_max_filesize', '128M'); @ini_set('post_max_size', '256M'); @ini_set('max_input_time', '-1'); @ini_set('max_execution_time', '-1'); @...

I made a conversion and changed directly an account in the database to be an administrator. I've seen that if there is internal link inside post (linking to another thread or post), the url does not change for the new one. Could it be possible to obtain a modification of these url during the convers...

@MaFeSa, you should keep an eye on this topic : viewtopic.php?f=486&t=2278541
I've contacted prototech and he already done an update. I have some problem with it but you should give it a try, more feedback is better

Re prototech, I've done a complete copy of my forum under MyBB 1.6 followed by an upgrade to MyBB 1.8.4 and tried to convert it to phpBB using your convertor on a fresh installation of phpBB 3.1.3. I forget to check during the process so I do not know about the previous errors I noted, but at the en...

I'm currently on MyBB 1.6 but in order to use the converter I've done an upgrade to MyBB1.8.4 on a test forum running the upgrade script, the database should then be upgraded too. I checked on the administration panel and the version 1.8.4 is currently identified. I checked at the end of the databas...

Thanks prototech. The convertion goes until its end, I noted these errors which appear during the process: phpBB Debug] PHP Warning: in file [ROOT]/install/install_convert.php on line 2068: inet_ntop(): Invalid in_addr value [phpBB Debug] PHP Warning: in file [ROOT]/install/index.php on line 446: Ca...

The converter for phpBB 1.8 is here : https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=486&t=2278541 , it's for phpBB 3.1, there isn't any converter for MyBB 1.8 > phpBB 3.0 However, it is no working... I managed to have a conversion from a mybb 1.8 with the previously script you used, don't reme...

Oh. This convertor can be used for MyBB 1.8 too. Is it only the stored IP which have a problem for the conversion using this convertor for MyBB 1.8 tp phpBB 3.0 or also the images ? Stored IP are a negligible problem compare to the images for me, just have to clean the IP table. Edit : Ok, after som...

The MyBB 1.8 converter is not working, so I'm back on MyBB 1.6 convertor.

I still have this issue about the attachments. Does anybody have an idea about that ?

It would be really annoying to check all topic and editing if there i a problem concerning the image insertion in post.
