What does ImpEx Stand for ?
Import Export.
The search function is only working on new thread, or not working at all.
After any import you need to rebuild the search index.
AdminCP > Maintenance > Update Counters > Rebuild Search Index
All my post dates are 12-31-1969, how do i fix this ?
After most imports you need to rebuild the thread info and forum info as well.
AdminCP > Maintenance > Update Counters > Rebuild Thread Information (this process could take a while)
AdminCP > Maintenance > Update Counters > Rebuild Forum Information

Make sure you have move the users to the correct group. Adding and removing a temporary user will force the members list to rebuild.
Can ninjas do my import any better ?
Probably, though they are too busy flipping out to do imports.
What is the green percentage number during the import ?
It's mostly unimportant as it's just a reflection of the closeness of the source data to the target.
It's a measure of how much of the source data was available and selected when populating the ImpEx data object (user/thread/post/etc).
If a data object has 10 variables for data being imported and 3 of them are mandatory we can use that for an example.
If 5 of the variables are filled, 3 of which are the mandatory fields, then the object is 50% full and valid (green percentage number and imported).
If 9 of them are filled though only two of the mandatory ones, then it's 90% full though a fail.
The missing % that isn't imported is typically filled by defaults (within ImpEx just before the object is saved) or rebuilt when the admin runs the update counters and profile rebuild etc.
The % is an observation of what is being selected from the source and not is being saved.
