posts + members

[JedoChristo]

I am running a phpbb3 -- how can i bring posts and members from another forum and add them to mine?

You mean like merge to forums together as one?

 

[JedoChristo]

Yep! :lol:

I think it is possible but very very very very very very very very very very very very hard to do as there will be lots of clashes such as user id's as one user on one forum will have the user id 21 for example and on the other forum there will be a user also with the user id of 21 and on top of that you have the same issues with forums, posts and topics id's and you would need to change some users id's which will cock up the pm's and the permissions assigned with the new and old user id.

Oh sounds long to do!!!
Alright if anyone knows better way on doing this please post it up.

If no better way is found i will just not do this.

Thanks Fowler
