   I have used the phpbb script found here to convert smf has made an SQL dump which all looks ok but when I try to run it in phyadmin on the bbpress database it keeps stopping with duplicate errors either on the '' left for empty fields or on the user themselves anyone know why

   I am going through the same process and it isn't easy and definitely is more than just running a script. I'll be documenting the whole process when I finally complete the conversion but don't expect anything for at least a week.

   I posted the scripts I use to github, to migrate FUDforum to BBpress (migratefud2bb), and a simple plugin to 301 redirect old FUDforum links to BBpress

   I have successfully moved a set of SMF 2.0RC1.1 forums to bbPress 1 with a stop off in phpBB3. It's definitely not something for an inexperienced user to consider but like I said above I'll be documenting the whole process sometime after this coming week.
