    If you have a site running it and a database, PM me.
    Looking to see if this is done yet. I'm anxiously waiting to transfer my database over to vbulletin.

        Yes, had some interesting times deciphering the thread/post/replies(comments) structure, nearly done now.

            Don't get me started on Drupals stupid structure. It was this reason that I'm switching to vbulletin. I was considering writing my own forum module for drupal, but in the end I just decided to go with the tried and true software: Vbulletin.

            Thanks a million Jerry.

              I've done my best to figure it out, though I didn't have the source forum running side by side with the development so there might be some feed back that I'll have to fix, if that is the case just start a support ticket and ask for me.

                I just downloaded impex and didn't see a "drupal" folder in the systems folder. So now I'm uploading everything in hopes that it's named something else by accident.

                Is this an oversight on your part?

                  I just rebuild the download package and downloaded it myself from my own customer account to ensure it was ok.

                  Can you try downloading again to test it ?

                      I've edited the poll to add it, though i'd need some test data from a board to write an importer.

                        A lot of people requestin phpkit, especially over at vbulletin-germany ..

                        I got one from phpkit to wbb (it is one file only) - would you be able to make one for phpkit based on that importer ?

                        Content of that file :

                          This is the first time I've heard of phpkit, I've added it to the poll.

                            Cool, how many votes does it actually need to be considered ?

                              20 is the rule of thumb, unless there are a few huge boards that want to come over, i.e. 1 mill post +

                                Regarding Discuss and WebBBS

                                You write you need test - data .. would be access to a testforum enough even if there is only one or two user with some test posts ?
