Some problems from WebWiz import

[ibaker]

Hi
Just done a test run of an import from WebWiz 8.04 (MySQL) and have noticed a couple of problems.

1. In WerbWiz I have attachments in the file system and on the import I had elected to kepp attachments in the database. The posts that have an attachment just have the img tags example uploads/20061111_224717_plane0201-1.JPG so in other words the import I am guessing didn't import the images into the database.

2. The thread subject title has not come out on the first post of the thread and each post in the thread also has a blank title area.

Example:
21284

Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

1) From the 8.02 database I have for webwiz, the attachments are stored as links in the posts and not as separate pieces of information that are identifiable as attachments separate to any other link.

2) Does Topic.Subject exist in the source database ?

Thanks Jerry!
The source database holds:
Table: tblTopic
Field: Subject

Thanks Jerry!
The source database holds:
Table: tblTopic
Field: Subject

The title of the thread should be there.

The title of each post will be blank as there isn't a title stored in the webwiz database for posts, individually anyway.

Hi Jerry
I know it should be there but it isn't - the subject field in WebWiz contains the data but after an import the Title field in the Post table of vB is completely empty for every post.

So it seems that whilst all the data is being imported ok the WebWiz subject data is not.

The importer imports the topic.subject as the thread title, though each of the posts doesn't have a title line so it is set to blank.

It you can find the post title in the database I'll add it.

Topic is Thread and Thread is Post.
