XF 2.2 Import of vBulletin Albums - comments?

[Grant]

It appears that importing Albums form VB4 -> XF2 doesn't import comments on albums. Is that correct, or have I done something wrong?

Cheers

I take it no-one knows if the importer is supposed to import album comments too. ( bumping in case anyone knows!)

Which version of VB has album comments?

Or did you mean media comments?

As far as we are aware, neither VB4 nor VB5 have album comments.

 

[Grant]

did you mean media comments?

Sorry, yes. Media comments.

 

[Paul B]

In that case, yes, media comments should be imported.

Which version of VB are you importing from?

 

[Grant]

4.2

Did the images and albums import correctly?

Is there a table in the VB database entitled picturecomment full of entries with comment IDs, user names, etc?

I've never used VB so have no idea of the schema.

 

[Grant]

Did the images and albums import correctly?

Yes these were all fine

Is there a table in the VB database entitled picturecomment full of entries with comment IDs, user names, etc?

Yes there is. I'm doing another test import soon, so I'll see how that goes. Just wanted to check if it was supposed to, before I start writing some code to import them myself

Cheers

It shouldn't be necessary to write code - the importer should handle it.

If it doesn't work next time, let us know and if we can get a copy of the source DB then we can do some testing to see what's failing.
