Hello,
I am trying to import my forum's database from phpBB 2.0.19 to my new installation of vBulletin 3.5.4.
Everything seems to convert just fine, but I can not get some characters right. These are characters specific for czech language such as "č", "ů", "ř", "ě" and others. After the import, these characters are replaced by "?".
I suppose it's a problem of database tables collations.
My forum is in Czech language and the source database tables (phpBB) collation is cp1250_czech_cs and the default vBulletin tables collation after the installation is latin1_swedish_ci.
Is it possible that the problem is somewhere there?
How to set up things properly to make the import work?
Thanks in advance.
