Hi i have looked thru these forums but have came to the conclusion that with over 111,000 posts i could be here for day's looking for a script and instructions. i am installing the raven nuke 2.10.01 and want to to a phpBB to Nuke integration. my current forum is phpBB 2.0.22 the nuke installation is still fresh. i am not sure if i am supposed to patch it or actually even how to patch it yet.
and with the phpBB to nuke, will this also import all my registered user acct's so that nobody has to re register for the site?

I'm sorry if i posted this in the wrong section and if so could someone please point me in the right direction. thanx

RN comes with PHPBB integrated. It is a little hard to interpret your question though. Do you have separate installs of PHPBB and some form of Nuke installed now? If so, you will need to find a separate script to convert (or migrate) your PHPBB users to Nuke users. I think there may be one but you can search as well as I -- if that's even what you need.

With RN2.10.01 you don't need to do any patches. It comes all patched.

Yes, I think he wants to convert from phpBB to BBtoNuke (included with RN) and bring along all his users. The Nuke tables for phpBB should basically be the same (you can use Guardian's excellent DB comparison tool to verify that). The user tables might be a bit trickier, but you might be able to find a script for both. If not, Guardian's tool can help with both.

ok both versions of phpbb are 2.0.22 so do i just need to change the table names in the phpBB to have the nuke prefix and to change the name of the database from the phpBB one to the same name as the new one ill be using in my nuke site?
