I am importing DCForum+ 1.27 to vBulletin 3.5.2. The only error I got was that 2 polls failed to import. Although not a huge problem, how can I find out which they are and what can I do about it.

I also see that when I look at the permissions settings I have 'administrator' and 'Administrator'. Likewise for some other user settings. I suspect that this is because one forum uses the upper case at the beginning and the other uses the lower case. Suggestion for this please?

Thanks for a great package.

I have done a test import and none of the attachments (jpegs) have been imported. Only the URL to the file in the old forum directory is shown in the post.

I think the reason the attachments are not being imported is that they are in a filesystem but the rest of the old DCForum+ is in the MySQL db. Is there a way around this Jerry? I need to get these attachemnts across, 100Mb of them.
