View Full Version : [ImpEx & phpBB] - Only importing sent PM's?

I've just run the import script, and all my users/posts/threads/forums etc was properly imported.

However, when checking my PM's that I chose to import, I only see the PM's I've sent to others (from the sentbox in phpBB). I do not see messages I had in my inbox or savebox in phpBB. I've checked this with several users, and different settings, but it only imports sent PM's.

As far as I know, those PM's should be imported to the sent folder in vB, and the phpBB inbox/savebox messages should be imported to inbox in vb. Am I right?

Also, how do I update the 'Total PM: 0' to display how many PM's a user have in the inbox after importing?

I have an important question. If launch the forum now, as most of the important things, aside from the pms, seem to be working - will I be able to add those PMs later on when the bug is fixed and not lose any other info that will be added in mean time? So basicly, will I be able to import just those missing PMS without going through the whole import process again and thus losing data/settings/permissions/etc?

I honestly don't know if you will be able to import those PM later without reimporting everything else all over again. Jerry will need to answer this for you.
