What exactly is happening? You can PM me if you want, because without seeing an actual error, it's gonna be hard for me to help you out :)

Hi @tribalplague, Sorry but no, I don't have any plans to update the importer. Is it failing with XF 1.4.5? Benjy

Thanks & nope, never developped such a feature.

Well, in fact this was not intended. I just updated the importer and the code was already there, just never called. Forum permissions should now work and you might have a nice surprise with character encoding (or maybe not).

Benjy updated FluxBB Importer with a new update entry: Version 1.50 (released 2014.01.03) Read the rest of this update entry...

No, I was... the error should be fixed, please re-download the file.

Hi @KidCastro and @RobCom, Has any of you tried the file attached here?

Hi KidCastro, Please try again, replacing the original library/CodeInMotion/Importer/FluxBB.php file with the one attached. The identities (ICQ, MSN, etc.) are handled differently in the latest XF versions. If it doesn't work, you can try upgrading from FluxBB to XF 1.1.3, then upgrading your...

Benjy updated FluxBB Importer with a new update entry: Bug fixes Read the rest of this update entry...

IMPORTANT: starting from this version, IDs WON'T be retained for categories and forums. Them being in two separate tables with possibly identical IDs messed up some imports. Other IDs will be kept just are fine. + added a conditional to set source DB charset with PunBB 1.3+ (props Rodolfo) *...
