PHPBB Module to Newbb conversion

Appologies if this is in the wrong section....

I've currently got a problem with someone I've installed a site for. Their site uses the XOOPS PHPBB hack to enable PHPBB to work.

Unfortunately they've decided they dont want a hacked forum - and they'd rather have NewBB - despite it having its faults.

Is there anyway at all I can convert from the hacked version, back to Newbb?

Please help - i'm at my wits end with this customer :(

Wonder if anyone can help on this at all?

I've asked at the forum module site - but no one seems to know :(

Thanks in advance

Are you wanting to just convert the content over?

These may help from the download section:

I appreciate the help Tom - but its actually the bbpixel hack of PHPBB i'm using... basically I want to be able to re-convert the forum to the standard newbb one for one of my sites.

Any further ideas at all anyone?

What I am wondering - is as PHPBB has been modified to fit around XOOPS - is if the data is still in the original Newbb format.... If thats the case, then I may literally be looking at just turning on newbb - and turning the mod off...

But surely that would be too easy?

All help appreciated :)

Since the topic is going already I'll ask my question. I've got a PostNuke install running pnphpbb2 and would like to be able to move it to xoops. Anyone know if it can be done? I don't think bbpixel can do it.

Hello all!
I have some problems with this convertor.
My phpBB database is almost 14 MB. So, at 5th step, copy topics, I have this error:
le="color: #000000"><?php Error SQL-query : INSERT INTO xoops_bb_topics( topic_id, topic_title, topic_poster, topic_time, topic_views, topic_replies, topic_last_post_id, forum_id ) SELECT p.topic_id, p.topic_title, t.xoops_bb_uid, p.topic_time, p.topic_views, p.topic_replies, p.topic_last_post_id, p.forum_id FROM phpbb_topics p, temp_uid_map t WHERE p.topic_poster = t.phpbb_uid MySQL said: #1062 - Duplicate entry '2' for key 1


Since I'm not very familiar with mysql..please help me :), what can I do to correct this issue ?

Regards
