Ahh ok, ill just rerun until says complete. Also not having the uploads is fine as long as the Main topics in the forums are there. We are just trying to save it for informational purpose.

Thank you.

First I want to thank you for all your help and clarification! I understand whats going how now, also i had ran this so many times that I had 4 copies of each reply, lol. So I did a forum reset and checked the database for anything left over (which there was) and deleted them and reran the whole thing. This time it went smooth, only thing is I could not get the Uploads folder which is fine I guess, all we needed the main topics and wright-ups. Will say this though, every time I run “Recalculate the position of each reply” it errors out I guess to a white page… I dunno.. lol

Thank you.

Thank you for the reply back, it seems to be working. My questions is I have stopped and start many times, does it start off from it left off or does it start over and make duplicates? Hours, that must be nice… Im like 3 days in… lol… the forum im helping to convert has been online since 2007 I think and just shut down the other day. Also, I do not have the Upload folder yet but when I get it do I have to start the process all over again or can just update the link in the php file and just click start? To give you and idea right now im at 691,806 replies and still going. The users and topics seemed to be converted just fine and the forum. Question, I do see the forums I made and then there are new ones from the conversation. It looks like the topics and replies are linked to the converted forums and not the one I made (which are the same name as the converted ones) should I just delete the ones I made? Also im working a VM if you need access to it please let know to make sure im doing this right lol.

Thank you.

Ok I did some looking after awhile, the topics and replies are there but are not link the forum titles I created. The plugin is still running, does the converted topics and replies not auto link to correct forum topics I create? The forum topics are the same names as the old Invision forum topics.

Thank you.

Hey, I am trying to use your plugin. Your write up is unclear to me, do I need to have the same the forum title on the new bbpress forum the invision forum? Is the Upload folder really needed and what is it?? I have done some conversion but nothing is showing up on the new forum I created and they have same titles as the old one on the Invision.

Also if leave the Table Prefix blank to does nothing, I have to put in “orig_ibf” for it to work. Its converting stuff but i dont see where…. Do i have to wait for the converting to stop before I seen anything pop up on the new forums???

Thank you.
