Import forum from csv file

Post by Ricsca »

I would like to import a custom forum into phpbb.
I can create a csv file with all the custom forum data.
Is there any way to import it into phpbb?
What data must the csv file have?
Thanks

Where are you getting the CSV file from?

You can import the CSV using phpMyAdmin.

Install a brand new board, and then investigate the database (you can also export tables as csv).
Spelling is freeware, which means you can use it for free.
On the other hand, it is not open source, which means you cannot change it or publish it in a modified form.
