Any word on a fusionbb to ubb importer?

All importers are taking a back seat to the release of 7.1 at that time they say they will put some time into other importers.

As to when or if they will do one for Fusion I'm not sure but I"m sure that Rick or one of the Mods will say for sure soon.

I think both VB & fusionbb will be amongst the first

I hope the phpbb one is finalized... It's almost done in the first place lol... phpbb has an importer for just about every other forum, so you'd think people could use it as a "shortcut route" from other solutions...

what about an importer to ubb 6.5?

All new importers will be created for the current version only (UBB.Threads7); it'd be redundant to create one just for 6.5 when it's not even a current codeset (as UBB.threads was completely recoded in 7.0)

I was asking if one was currently in existence. I guess not.

All currently available importers can be found in the members area, these include:
PHPBB
UBB.Classic 6.7.x
UBB.threads 6.5.x

Rick has stated that he's planning on working on more importers after the release of UBB.threads 7.1 which is currently in Public Beta release 4.

Allrighty thanks.

Now that 7.1 is released, just waiting on importer
Will It only be in members area, because that wouldn't be cool

I'd immagine it'd only be in the member area, except for testers; you could also obtain it through the Groupee Support.

What exactly is Groupee Support?

Groupee is the "new company name" for Infopop; their tech support is generally where you'd get licensed support (specifially for issues such as importers for your forum outside of the member area access).

yes, Members area only.

I'm starting on some of the importers now. I need to finish the phpbb and eve importers. Both are very close. Then I'll probably do vbulletin and fusion.

These will all be in the members area. Not sure why that's a bad thing, since you'd need members area access in order to download 7.1.

heh

I think I saw an eye patch... and a peg leg, oh noes!

Its a long story. I don't need 7.1 just the converter. Pretty Please.

I know that I for one would be interested in this story. I can't conceive of a reason why you would need an importer into 7.1 but not need 7.1 itself. I've got time. How long can your story be?

No need to pretty please. It'll be in the Member area when it's done. I'll be the guy putting it there.

Well, no disrespect meant, but I'm right now running a forum with fusionbb (legal) but I want to run VB. Currently no importers exist. What I want to do is use your converter to convert fusionbb to ubb, then use impex (which i own legally) to convert that to vb.

Well, at least your honest But, the importers are meant for our customers and will definitely be in the members area so you'll need to have members area access to get it.

[edit] Rick said almost word for word what I said

All "official" UBB Code is licenseware, may it be the importers, or the script itself; you'll need a UBB.threads or UBB.Classic license to obtain the importers as they're official code for the UBB.Threads7 product. To use the importers without a license would be a license violation for whomever provides it.

Darn

I'm pretty sure you could do much the same through phpbb however, they tend to have an importer for just about anything lol

Good idea.

Any E.T.A for fusionbb importer?
