The latter assumption being it's easier for most to convert to phpBB first, from various others with the phpBB community being so active. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/invision-board#post-15134 Tue, 08 Apr 2008 06:47:48 +0000 Beer 15134@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Looking for a solid IPB 2.3 to bbPress current. Will pay $$ for a flawless clean GPL script that can be released to the bbPress community. If specific forum #'s can be selected for conversion, even better. Where's a good place to post this? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/invision-board#post-15127 Tue, 08 Apr 2008 05:19:42 +0000 sambauers 15127@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Private messaging will not be in core in the foreseeable future.</p> <p>The idea is to make the import/export process hookable, so that if someone authors an IM plugin for bbPress, they can query for IM import data and place it where their plugin wants it. They can also hook in to the export process as well. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/invision-board#post-15117 Mon, 07 Apr 2008 23:44:38 +0000 bryan868 15117@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Good news! Hopefully bbPress will eventually have private messaging in the core so the importers can move over PM data as well! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/invision-board#post-15000 Fri, 04 Apr 2008 01:00:57 +0000 sambauers 15000@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>We will potentially be adding import/export features during the Google Summer of Code program. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/invision-board#post-14989 Thu, 03 Apr 2008 23:28:53 +0000 bryan868 14989@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I think the most important feature for bbPress' future will be importers / converters.</p> <p>People are going to want to integrate their forums with WordPress. And those of use already running vBulletin or IPB are going to want to convert to bbPress! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/invision-board#post-6401 Thu, 05 Apr 2007 15:02:09 +0000 Sushubh 6401@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>hmm the phpbb-&gt;bbpress did not work well with me the 2 times i tried it out. i will check it again. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/invision-board#post-6387 Thu, 05 Apr 2007 03:58:45 +0000 bbolman 6387@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>As far as I can tell, there isn't one, but you can always do it old fashioned ipb -&gt; phpbb -&gt; bbpress </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/invision-board#post-6314 Tue, 03 Apr 2007 02:02:37 +0000 Trent 6314@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I had a massive phpBB forum and this one worked for me!</p> <p><a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/402?replies=28" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/402?replies=28</a></p> <p>I don't completely recall an IPB to bbPres importer, but it kinda rings a bell somewhere.....just couldn't find it for you!
