Erm.. it should be custom BB Code. 😀

Yeah.. sometime, in custom BB code, we do use a ; ‘ : | } ] [ * , or any other character . As myself had little bit PHP knowledge, (always do wp theme code myself and for clients), those character might broke some code if there’s no escape clause like \ (backslash) before some character ie: :\’\ etc …. As your note = shouldn’t but could be.

I’ve tried Rows Limit to 50 and 20 .. but not yet to 1. I’ll try that later.

I want to try it on localhost / my own pc. But when I think about my 500mb forum database file .. yeah.. you know.. I feeling down.. lol.

Sigh.. I’m still trying hard.

Tried everything above. none works. stuck at 5K. Then suddenly it passed once, but stuck back at $post id 250K something..

Inspected all related $post table in phpMyadmin still cannot found what’s wrong with it. Even inspect the before-and-after-data in table , not found any possible clue.

Somehow, I just notice or suspecting that.. it might be related to either :
1 – post with custom BBtag.
2 – post/topic that has Poll option.

Still not give up , but little bit frustration about it.

Hi, have a nice day all.

I might got the same problem as @infostrides , mine also a very large forum database as I do mentioned earlier. I do host on my own dedicated rack server with xeon & 8gb ram (supposed to be no memory limit like shared hosted)

At first I thought it was conflicted with existing wp database, so I do test on the new fresh wp installation > import the smf database , then planned to import post / pages (from existing wp) later. Somehow it gave me the same problem.

1 – The import process seems stuck at 5K++ post or topic something. No moving and no error reported.
2 – I’ve checked, in many of forums topic, seem to have reply count, but when browsing the topics page, none post listed except the first post – I think it occur due to fail import process.
3 – The hidden/private forum appear as normal forum – not hidden (it’s ok since I can set it later I think).

I still trying working on it until now. 🙂

Regards

Good to see this!

Gonna try to convert my forum next week. (have to duplicate current database to ensure if anything goes wrong I still have the backup ) .

My forum stats : “405019 Posts in 13948 Topics by 8112 Members”.

I’m running on my own dedicated server, intel xeon + 8gb ram. I wonder how long it gonna take.

Wordpress + BbPress + BuddyPress + (WPMU?).
my very own Arts social network perhaps?

😀 Congratulation for all good work.

Regards.

Hello all.

The converter now is running well, except for the smilies?

Regard.

Thanks God..

Wishing something like this for years. Done search, but it was 6 years ago solution and not relevant anymore.

I even try myself but yet it’s too hard for me.
Owning a big forum of 8K user, 14K topics, 400K posts. SMF wasn’t suit me anymore since I used WordPress (my mainpage is wordpress, forum SMF). I’m intend to do something like WordPress + BBpress + Buddypress 😀

Im looking forward for this. 🙂
