Publisher review:This Drupal module will import your phpBB data into Drupal. This Drupal module will import your phpBB data into Drupal. It currently targets imports from phpBB 2.x. and there is experimental support for imports from phpbb3 into Drupal 6.Unlike your typical SQL scripts, thismodule is written in PHP and uses Drupal's APIs extensively to import the data. It's been tested with a fairly large phpBB sites (500,000 posts/users/topics/attachments) It can import 500,000 records in about 40 minutes, but it doesn't automatically reinitiate the script when it times out.Imports - Users - Additional information such as location/aim/msnm that are not included in Drupal's default form are imported using the profile module. - Categories & Forums - Categories become containers and Forums become, well, forums. - Topics - Topics are Drupal's equivalent of a forum node. The script will also import your moved topics and mirror them in your drupal forum as well. - Posts/Comments - Post are phpBB's central storing entity. Topics are technically posts as well. Posts are imported as comments. - Attachments - Polls - phpBB polls are imported as Drupal poll nodes. For phpBB 3, polls are imported as forum topics. The poll data is not carried out. If this functionality is needed, it should be placed into an additional (possibly bundled) module. - Many small details - BBcode and other minor information are preserved.Installation - Drop the whole phpbb2drupal sub-directory into your modules directory. - Enable the module at admin/modules. - Visit the page admin/phpbb2drupal and follow the directions on screen. - After the conversion, enable the phpbb_redirect Module to allow old links to keep working. Requirements: ยท Drupal 5.x/6.x
