Hello,

I’m having a problem importing a vbulletin forum into bbpress. It keeps telling “no forums to convert”, “no comments to convert” for every item “no ….. to convert”. I didn’t create the old site I am taking this from but when I got to page source, I see vBulletin 3.8.2 so I’m guessing that’s the version it is.

Also the database doesn’t show any table prefixes, it just has “access” as the first one, “adminhelp” as the second and so on.

The site is http://troianiwebdesign.com/gulfstar – wordpress version 3.9.2 – bbpress version 2.5.4

Please help me figure out the problem so I can get this moved over!

Thank you!

Can anyone help me please?

I don’t know what I’m doing wrong.

Thanks,

Based on the names of the table names you mention just leave the table prefix blank.

Did you select vBulletin3 from the dropdown?

Thank you for your help!

I did leave the table prefix blank when I tried importing the old forum database. And I tried vBulletin3 and vbulletin but still nothing worked.

I don’t know if I can add this but here is a screenshot:

Also here is a link to the old forum if this helps:

Do you see anything I could be doing wrong?

Thanks again for your help!
Peggy

Thanks,

good luck getting help Peggy. it’s so so frustrating when things aren’t working and you don’t have the technical skills to know how to fix things!

Sorry I can’t help but maybe a new post will bring it back to the top.
