Title: Is There a Way to Import Users Once Integration is Complete
Post by: plumwd on March 03, 2006, 02:23:38 PM
My integretation/bridging has gone just fine (although I currently have it disabled--but will renable for the interest of figuring this out). What I want is to import all my existing users to my new db so that they don't have to reregister.

I tried to do this and only one shows up in the list, even though they are all in the phpbb_users tables.  Is there a method for importing users who registered prior to integration?

If you compare the member list in the gallery to the forums you see they are not the same.

Coppermine install: http://www.womenofow.net/cpg143/
Forum install: http://www.womenofwow.net/phpBB2/
Coppermine version: cpg1.4.3
Forum version: phpBB2 2.0.19
Test user account: test_user / test1234

Bridge Wizard: enable/disable BBS integration
Your bridge settings
Forum URL:    http://www.womenofwow.net/phpBB2
Relative path to your BBS's config file:    ../phpBB2/
Use post-based groups?:    0
Cookie prefix:    phpbb2mysql
Enable integration/bridging with phpBB version 2.0.18 or better

THanks!

There is no formal method, nor would we provide instructions on interfering with other software. You can do it if you are familiar enough with phpbb and db editting, make sure the user_ids are the same in phpbb as they were in Coppermine.

The user_ids are exactly the same :(  I wrote a script to import all the users from the cpg users table to the phpbb users table.

Is the query for the memberlist (for cpg) in the themes.inc.php file?

Update to 1.4.4 - it contains fixes for the memberlist when using phpbb bridging.

Okay thanks, I'll try that.
