Imported from IBF, but my style...ahh!

[minx]

Import went ok, i went for the option to import IBF styles...anyways, after updating counters etc, the info was there, but when i checked my new style which i designed for vb on 3.0.3 all the old IBF data was shown skew-wiff (check the attached)

A test post i made before the import on a blank vb database is shown to be ok, my style is looking good, but the rest?

see for yourself

Well, i tried again this time not importing styles or whatever, the result is the same, normal post i made before the import from IBF is ok, the forum home with my style is a mess, and i dunno why... must have imported some style settings... check the pic you'll see what i mean, is there anything i can do?

everything else imported ok, i'm using IBF v1.2 (is there an importer for this?)

please advise, cheers

Can you try editing one of your forums to just rebuild the forumcache.

The style just imports some values, you might need to reset a few. You can see this in the Style Manager.

I did as you said and all is ok, thanx again for your help.

Can you tell me which one worked?

As i'd like to see if I can fix the importer.

On invetigation, it's looks like it wasn't the importer afterall... i did try what you said, but i also looked at one of my templates, forum_no_post and forumhome, although working originally i must have added some xtra table html which did'nt do down to well... i reverted my 2 templates and re-added the table code and low & behold, working... it was one or the other...i bet your importer code is far more stable and working that any htl i may have place in the templates :)

thanx again
