  • As was indicated when this was asked before a couple days ago, there is something on phpBB.com that can handle this.

    :edit:
    Tested and works great, only problem for me was the dates wern't showing properly!
    To solve it, i had to open up phpMyAdmin, go to phpBB_users, press SQL and then typed

    UPDATE `phpBB_users` set `user_dateformat`="d M, Y - H:i" WHERE 1


    and that sorted it :)

  • The mentioned HowTo comes with several serious flaws, it basicially will mostly just import posts, topics, categories and usernames while destroying everything else:

    1) Sessions are left apart completely.
    2) User passwords will be destroyed.
    3) Themes will work just partially.
    4) Avatars, attachments gone.

    That's just the major problems coming in my mind - I'm sure there are many others. By the way - why would one leave a PostNuke hardened PNphpBB2, and move into a much more insecure pure phpBB2? I really do not understand the motivation behind this. PNphpBB2 even comes with a forum only mode, where it is full sized (just in case you do not want people to see PostNuke).
