Mjay06 0 Report post Posted August 2, 2006 Right, where do I start...I have a phpbb forum, which is ok but doesnt give me the scope for expansion which I need, so I have switched over to phpnuke (which has phpbb integrated anyway).My problem is this - how do I transfer all the member details from the phpbb forum to the phpnuke database? I'd really rather not have to ask everyone to rejoin if it can be helped, & I guess there must be some clever way of using the mysql database to sort it out.I'll be the first to admit i'm pretty clueless when it comes to the finer workings of mysql databases, so any help on this would be great.

Do a full back up or whatever and then download it to your computer. Then go into the forums on your PHP Nuke site, look under General Admin again, and go to Restore Databases, and upload the file from your computer there and it will restore all users topics, categories, and I think even the theme if it is uploaded.
