AFAIK, all threads are open after an import.

Is it possible to make ImpEx to also import the thread status, so that phpBB2 threads that are closed also show up as closed in vB3?

Not a big thing, but definitely usefull :)

Sure, just got to find in phpBB where that is stored, its not in Topic status I think, I'll have a look.

I've browsed my phpBB 2.0.6 database, and found out that there is a topic_status field inside phpbb_topics. I then tested to see if it was updating when opening/closing threads.

0 = Open
1 = Closed

Jerry - when you say 'done now' - do you mean it's in the latest ImpEx release...?

Yes, the download has been updated, I will ensure that I differentiate between a CVS update and ImpEx download rebuild in the future.

I just made a new import with the latest ImpEx version, and can confirm that this feature now works.

The thread status, before they were all open, now it imports the open/closed status.
