Thanks. Yes, that would go without saying, I suppose. But doesn't suck to remind me. OK, the migration on the php4 machine from 2.0.21 to 2.0.23 to 3.0.1 went without a hitch. If the dbs and field names are retained from 3.0.1 in php4/mysql3 to php5, then will this work: Conduct the install of 3.0....

To have both phpBB2 and phpBB3 running on the same server, install phpBB3 into a different folder from phpBB2. You can install into the same database as phpbB2 by using a different table prefix, or you can install into a newly created database. Wow -- I didn't see this in the docs with the package....

phpBB 2.0.23 will run on most PHP5 installations. (It's not guaranteed to run on all, phpBB3 was designed for PHP5 compatibility>) Sorry, I can't advise is the CPANEL transfer will have any problems. But if we migrate to phpbb v3, make sure it works in a php4 environment for a while, then move that...

Hello,

Has anyone successfully migrated the v2.x board from php4/mysql3 to a leopard server running php5 and mysql 5.0.45 (current version as of 10.5.3)?

Or, am I better off upgrading the v2 installation on the current machine to v3.x, then moving the v3.x boards to the Leopard server?

Hello all, I have a table with content that I would like to have show up in a post as a table, not as the raw soruce code. I'm running 2.0.21, have the profile and preferences set to permit HTML, but cannot see what I have done wrong. Here is the post: http://mgiforum.rduonline.com/viewtopic.php?p=3...

thats helps a lot

Yes -- brilliant tips, indeed. thank you. So much of that could be added to the product with minimal fanfare and remarkable improvements in administration. Hopefully, there is work going on in this vein.

i asked basicly the same question as you did, yesterday and got no answer. Could some one please tell us if this is avalible or is possible. It's very do-able... and some of my request is simply a matter of rearranging existing code, creating a conditional for the new user form, and be done. But th...

I'd love to have an administrative control to hide the link to the Memberlist. Why: this feature is the number one reason why the scum join our forums -- so they can post their profile and add in their links to their sites (porn, drugs, etc.). They have no intention of joining the forum -- they simp...

Solved the problem. Thanks! One other oddity: I had a slew of russian registrations for users. They never posted, but most left a website in their profile. Some were porn, some were personal. Is this some kind of game for users to see how many forums they can join, or is this some way the spammers m...

Hi -- The day of the release of the latest phpbb, the mirrors had not received the updates so I modified mine by hand. Does anyone know where the version number is kept in the admin -- the version checker thinks I am running .12 even though I did apply the posted changes to the files for .13 -- and ...

After several attempts, EasyNews (Phoenix) worked for downloading. Maybe the rest will catch up soon.

Every mirror I try claims they don't have the file. Anyone have a good mirror for the full or changed file english version?
