Can I ask what exactly gets converted, or better, what does not?

Attachments, smileys, user groups?

Re:SMF to FB that works 4 Years, 4 Months ago  
This seems to work good, but I keep getting errors that stop the progress. :(

Such as Invalid query:
INSERT INTO `jos_fb_users` (userid, posts, signature) VALUES (\'498\', \'0\', \'\')
Duplicate entry \'498\' for key 1

Re:SMF to FB that works 4 Years, 4 Months ago  
You have to drop the existing jos_FB tables before running the smftofb component. It looks like you already had old version of FB installed on your Joomla installation

Re:SMF to FB that works 4 Years, 4 Months ago  
You mean empty the tables? Because they were empty. If I drop the tables I get:

Invalid query:
TRUNCATE TABLE jos_fb_categories
Table \'jos_fb_categories\' doesn\'t exist
#23061
Re:SMF to FB that works 4 Years, 4 Months ago  
yes drop tables, go to php my admin > your joomla db find all tables with jos_fb click on the check box left on each, scroll down \"with selected\" dropdownbox choose drop
#23063
Re:SMF to FB that works 4 Years, 4 Months ago  
So what about the error message:
Invalid query:
TRUNCATE TABLE jos_fb_categories
Table \'jos_fb_categories\' doesn\'t exist

Re:SMF to FB that works 4 Years, 4 Months ago
