phpbb to cpgnuke? how? :: Archived

hi,
how do i convert phpbb to cpgnuke?
i already have phpbb installed... do i install cpgnuke and convert it over?
if so, do i put both phpbb and cpgnuke in the same directory (public_html for phpbb)? or in separate (like public_html/cpgnuke)?
and do i use the same database for both?
please help, i've been through almost all of the conversion topics and found no answer to my questions above...
im using phpbb2.0.22 and want cpgnuke 9.1.2

remove all default phpbb files.
upload DragonflyCMS files
go to yourdomain.com/install.php

when you get to the database screen enter the information for you phpbb database dragonfly installer will do the rest.

you will have to wait until a more knowledgeable member picks up on this thread. I am not real good with database querys

tonytly we will do one step at the time so we don't get confused
query your current db with:

Code::

SELECT user_regdate FROM nuke_users LIMIT 10

post the results here.

Nano,
when you say query, u mean i paste that code u gave me into the little SQL box?
if so, then i got 0 on all my users...
here's a pic of it

NanoCaiordo · Posted: Tue Jul 24, 2007 2:31 am Post subject: Re: phpbb to cpgnuke? how?

now do the exact query on your old phpbb database please

hmmm, are you wanting me to shove those old phpbb regdate numbers into the new cpgnuke one?

NanoCaiordo · Posted: Tue Jul 24, 2007 3:04 am Post subject: Re: phpbb to cpgnuke? how?

last more query on your phpbb database to understand what happen:

Code::

SHOW COLUMNS FROM nuke_users WHERE Field='user_regdate'

it wouldnt read that code...
i tried changing the "nuke" part to both phpbb and cms but no luck
sorry if im making you impatience

try replacing the single quotes that I've used around user_regdate with double quotes instead.

I'm fine Smile

i got to see what and where the regdate is, cause when i read your post on the other forum, i was lost, lol
but now i got it
lol, thanks!!!
