Topic: XennoBB > PunBB

http://www.xennobb.com/

I'm currently running XennoBB on one of my sites but I'm concerned about security issues and such with it so I would like to convert to PunBB. The databases look similar (I believe I read Xenno was based on Pun) and I was considering doing it manually but I thought I would see if there was a tool first to save me the hassle.

Any advice for the conversion? I want it to go as smoothly as possible (obviously). Thanks. smile

No, there isn't a conversion tool currently. However, XenoBB is based on PunBB it should be possible to convert manually. If you have a question, just ask smile

OK, it's pretty easy for anyone else that's considering doing it. You only need to drop a few things from the database and rebuild post/topic stats, etc. but it's a pretty smooth transition. smile
