phpBB importer

Title phpBB importer
Message Text The importer file is attached at the bottom of this post (and if anyone would like to improve it, feel very free). Things it imports: - topics and posts - members - polls (but not their votes, see below) - forums (but not their permissions, categories, etc) - private messages Noteable things it doesn't import: - poll votes (phpbb seems to not record individual votes, only totals) - IP addresses (phpbb stores them in some odd non-literal format, appears to be hex) Please be aware when downloading that this importer has undergone virtually no testing. I was importing a forum that had 3 topics, 4 posts and 1 member -- it is therefore possible that some issues didn't show up for me that will show up with a normally-sized forum. You should keep your old forum installed, take a few days to look over the WSN Forum imported version and be sure nothing has gone wrong before you direct your posters at the new forum. (Just re-import when you're ready to go live, in order to not lose a few days of posts etc.) Report any bugs/issues in this thread. Tested with phpBB 2.0.13, but I presume it should work with any 2.x version.
