    I need to move a forum away from ProBaords and wondering is there or will there be a "bot" importer so that they can get away from the grasps of an unstable free forum (as in it can go away at anytime)? 64,000+ posts is allot too loose.

    Thanks

      Currently the only one spider importer, and that is for ezboard done by Freddie.

      Contact me via a support ticket in the members area and we can go over what is involved.

          Hi, are you able to develop a conversion system from Advanced Electron Forum?

              Convert from ActiveForums (ASP.NET)

              Our old forum is using ActiveForums (ASP.NET) on top of DotNetNuke. What would need to be done to have a converter made?

              Product Page: http://www.activemodules.com/Product...8/Default.aspx

              We essentially want to just carry over the posts from the old forum and just have them named (so we can still know who had posted what) and marked as guest posts, as we were looking to have users just re-register on our new site.

              I have a copy of the MSSQL database with the forum data.

                That isn't one I've seen before, I can add it to the poll to gauge customer interest and demand for it ?

                  what ImpEx REALLY needs is the ability to stop and restart an import and, be able to change the number of items to be processed at a time.

                  At present... if something happens during an import, and if ImPex stops, and if you try to start it again, it tries to resume the previously aborted import using the same number of records. Since the reason the import was stopped was because too many records were trying to be processed, it would be good if one could change that value before the Impex was resumed.

                    Jerry, I have an user on vbulletin-fr.org which would like to have an importer for Fire Soft Board. I'm contacting him for his database and if it's possible, to contact you for develop and testing

                      Could someone add Yuku (aka new ezBoard) to the list of requested importers?

                        Done, though it will be dependant on Freddie as he's the one that wrote and looks after the eZboard importer.

                          Thanks Jerry!! . Maybe we could all encourage Freddie to update the ezBoard importer

                            As it gets voted on, I'll bring it to his attention.

                              Hi Jerry,

                              I'd like to import a YAF 1.9.0 (NET v2.0) board (4,400 threads; 123,000 posts; 930 members) into our existing vb 3.6.8 (28,000 threads, 1,160,000 posts; 11,400 members).

                              Do I have to submit a ticket?

                              Let me know, please.

                              Thanks.

                              Regards.

                                There already is a YAF 1.9.0 importer in ImpEx.
