*kreker* · 08-07-2004, 03:33 PM

Hi guys, i need your help.
I have 2 database: one with my old vbb 2.3.2 forum and one new empty and full hacked with vbb 3.0.3
Now i need to import only 3d, posts and users but i see the 2 tables haven't the same fields so i cant copy form the old to the new tables!
What I have to do for this??

Thanks

By using the upgrade.php file yes, it will upgrade your vb2 users to vb3 with all the tables.

i did it but the upgrade miss al the correct gorupmember id.
now i have all the ids wrong.groupmember1 has the id of the groupmember10 and so on.and the forumid are missed too. i have tho 3d of the forum 30 in the forum 23 (example)
so there is a method to do it manually and correctly?

I didn't have any problems upgrading from v2 to v3, dunno what to tell you about that =\

The only manual way is to open up your mysql db, and edit the tables manually. (Don't ask how because i have no idea)

@ paul
do u remove all the template and hacks form the vb2 before upgrade? because i dint it

template hacks in vb2 will be lost when upgrading to vb3. vb2 styles do not work in vb3 but would not effeft group id's etc.
I upgraded from vb2 to vb3 with no problems at all. I suggest you restore the back up you made before attempting the upgrade and then run the upgrade again.
If you didnt make a back up well hmm no comment...

I didn't do anything special just ran the update and boom came out nice and soft :p

But like Shaved said you will loose all template hacks so that was a downside.

i'm dont worry about loosing template beacause i have the vb3 just hacked in local. so there is no problem. but i'll try to reupdate it...cross the finger
