I imported all the stuff I haven't gotten off the import screen yet and wont until i hear from you guys. I started all modules and they seem to have all finished without a problem. However I checked the forums and it imported the categories and sub-cats but none of the threads or posts are there!? what should I do now? In the import screen it says it found and imported the correct number but I don't see them! Thanks in Advance!

Try rebuilding your various counters in your:

Admin CP -> Import & Maintenance -> Update Counters

Specifically, try rebuilding your thread and forum information.

The threads within each forum aren't showing up. I can however see the latest thread on the index.php page of each forum and can click it and view the post, but I can not see it listed in it's proper forum. What should I do now?

Maybe the posts are older than the view age setting for your forums. You can change this setting in your:

Admin CP -> Forums & Moderators -> Forum Manager -> Edit Forum -> Default View Age

Thanks that worked great. BUT I do have another question. I saw something while importing that gave me the impression that my phpbb2 styles were converted over. If so how can I access it?

From the phpBB importer post (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showpost.php?p=657606&postcount=2):


Sytles

Some of the style settings. Note yet to be implemented in ImpEx


I am not sure what that means. We will have to ask Jerry. He should be getting back from vacation about now. I will send him a PM about this.

Thanks! I guess I'll just wait to see if I get a reply :P

Sorry for the delayed reply.

Currently no style settings are imported from phpBB.
