I'm still looking a bit into board access permissions.
Not an easy neither mission-critical (because it's something done once just after the conversion), but it would be nice to have it done at least nicely.

ETA: quick update, boards accessibility is somehow migrated as well (actually, that helped me again in understanding the limits of the system). Now I have just one little thing I'd like to try to move: avatars... unless I already tried and failed, I have to check back the topic. lol

I had to make a choice and decided to post here the package even without avatars properly supported.

Install Elk.
Extract, upload and point your browser to the "import.php" file.
Select Elk as destination, IPB as source, set the paths and try the conversion.
Once finished, log to Elk and go to admin > maintenance > routine and do both "find and repair errors" and "recount statistics". Of course check permissions and stuff like that (and also PMs, I based my conversion on the db structure, without looking at the actual content, it should work, but if you can verify it would be better).

For the record @Bunstonious I started looking into Wedge as a source.
It should be "easy" because the base is SMF, but I'll have to check few things.

Should get time tonight to get this done if not this weekend. Thank you so much @emanuele

@emanuele everything worked great except is is asking for a validation code to log in to the Elkarte forum. Is there any way to set a code in phpmyadmin?

Your email address needs to be validated before you can login. Need another activation email?

Okay, I got it, I'm an idiot^[1]. xD

Yeah, try this:

Code: [Select]

UPDATE elkarte_members
SET is_activated = 1

Fix the table name if you used a different prefix.

¹Memo to self: I set a "global" is_disabled instead of checking if each single account is actually disabled or not. lol↵

Don't know much about phpmyadmin where do I run that as a query?

Not really.
It gives some good info, but I still prefer scrutinizer. And anyway, the Elk analysis is running since 17 hours ago and I have no idea when it will finish! LOL
