Codezwiz >> Forums >> General PHP Nuke Help >> need help with PHPNuke users!

right here goes, firstly I am a complete novice at SQL.

Here goes,
I have had a website running for quite a long time, I'm in the process fo switching to a phpnuke powered site.
I have moved the tables from the old forums SQL database to the new one and members can log in and post on the new forums, however they cannot log into the actual phpnuke site (to make comments on articles, etc etc)

I've had a look at the nuke_users table and it shows feilds very simular to that of the forums users.

Can anyone shine any light on this for me?
thanks in advance

What forum are you importing from? if stand alone phpBB there's a converter script available here: [ Register or login to view links on this board. ]

It's called: phpBB to PHP-Nuke NukeSQL
Be sure to backup first.

Yes the original forum was a standlone PHPBB, thanks for the link bud I'll give it a try

Tried the script, have done everything correctly but when it says "run the test" I click it and the page refreshes but with no change so now I dont know what to do

Sorry to hear that...here's another script (not sure if it's the same script or not) [ Register or login to view links on this board. ]

I'm not sure if the second script works, but the nukesql is broken on the switch() function. When I used it I had to go in and set the variables statically, run the file, change the variable, refresh, change the variable, etc etc until it was finished. Hopefully evaders' script will work flawlessly for you.

worked perfectly as far as I can see, thankyou very much

You're welcome!
