I'm currently running UBB.threads (http://www.ubbcentral.com)together with photopost (http://www.photopost.com). I managed do a succesful import of my board, but now the next big thing is here:
Previously photopost was using my ubb userbase. Since all usernumbers now have changed, how do I re-associate those new usernumbers in photopost?

I'm sure other people must have had the same problem with other third party software, but unfortunately I wasn't able to find a "how to" on this forum. My knowledge of MySQL is poor, so I'd really need a step by step instruction. :o

Any help greatly appreciated! ;)

To cut a long story short, you have to do this manually some how. I've been through this one a few times and I believe PhotoPost can't change its user id reference (i.e. to use importuserid) and to force the old id's into vBulletin would break the database.
