Hello !
Formerly I`ve been using phpBB as a stand alone board as my forum , with a HTML page on the side .. untill I deceided to use a dynamic website like postnuke with the PNphpBB2 module .
Offcourse , there`s alot of posts and threads on my old phpBB forum , not to mention all the user acount data and signatures wich I`d like to port over to the PNphpBB2 forum I`ve setup .
Initially I figured since PNphpBB2 was derived from phpBB that I`d simply backup the database from the old forum and try to import it into PNphpBB2 , that didn`t work out so well I`ve got an error about something , so I figure that doesn`t work that way .
I`ve looked over teh PNphpBB2 download section and there were no conversion tools availeble .
Is it possible in any other way to import a phpBB database so I can retain all my posts and user acounts over to PNphpBB2 ????
Any help would be greatly apreciated !!
It would surely beat cut and pasting every single thread over :)
Thanks in advance .

Simply have all your phpBB info in the same database as nuke then install module PNphpBB. It will update the info for you.
Please search next time as I myself have answered this many times. ;)
