Converting YaBB Gold Sp1.1 to YaBBSE 1.5.0

[WebMonkey]

The current converter only works (as far as I can tell) for converting  YaBB Gold Sp1.1 to YaBBSE 1.4.1.

I've looked, but didn't see anything on the current status of a new one to convert YaBB Gold Sp1.1 to YaBBSE 1.5.0.

Is there a way that I can import my current users and postings manually?  There aren't that many postings, but there are close to 700 registered members so I'd like to do this as painlessly as possible.

I don't know zip about mySQL so that's not an option for the time being.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

TIA.

I would convert to 1.4.1 and then do an upgrade to 1.5.

I would convert to 1.4.1 and then do an upgrade to 1.5.

If it were only that easy. I've already got 1.5.0 installed and have a ton of other things to get done before going back to work on Monday. Then there's the inevitable "honey do" list awaiting me.

Then convert to 1.4.1 and wait until 1.5.1 is out to upgrade.

Hi,
I have a few questions that I wasn't able to locate any info on.  (I can't seem to post new topics on here, but I've been able to use reply in the test board)

After converting -

1) I can't View/Delete Members.  I've tried doing the conversion from YaBB Gold 1.1 to both YaBBSE 1.4.1 and YaBBSE 1.5.0.

When I go to Member Controls - View/Delete Members it says:
"The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings." etc
But the host/domain part of the URL is correct. Anyone know why I would get this error?

Everything else works fine.

2) The Notify by Email in IM - how do I have it off by default for everyone?  

3) The conversion put the word "Array" in everyone's Ignorelist in IM.  How do I delete that?

4) Where does MySQL/PHP store the data that used to be in the Members directory?

Thanks for any help.

hi all!

i have yabb sp1 installed and was trying to upgrade to 1.5.0. so first i installed the 1.4.1 successfully, then started the converter. evry path and password setting seemed to be ok, but after pressing the proceed button for converting all the threads i got the message:

We are now going to attempt to convert your member data files.
