CLI

Migrating is also available via command line, by executing the command php flarum migrate-data:from-mybb

Installation

composer require michaelbelgium/mybb-to-flarum

Thank you So Much! Work Perfect!

But need to change some setting for example:
The File Config.php must be a Conflict with flarum confing.php file, have the same Name in Folder.

My Solution:
Rename the file to Config2.php

Example OnLine Migration MyBB to Flarum : MyBB migrate script

It's a very good script. Please note that you should have same collation in both SQL db's.
Among other problems I had to delete some users with duplicate emails (don't know how was that even possible), also subforums with same name and those having " ' " in their name eg. "developers' corner".

Now I need your help/ideas on this:

Migrating threads and thread posts...
Error executing query: Unknown column 'yes' in 'field list'

ok I figured it out, column "closed" had values "yes" also instead of 0 / 1, converted them to 1 and fixed it.

For some reasons I cannot login using neither the former flarum password or the current after the migration

Updated migration script for beta 8 🎉

Just a heads up, I'm planning to make this as a flarum extension. I believe it will be the first "forum x to flarum" extension. But honestly, It should be like this

MichaelBelgium

This is now a flarum extension.

Version 3.0 béta. It's a pre-release so be careful. There's still version 2.1 if you need the php scripts in stead of an extension.
Report bugs on github.

Installation

composer require michaelbelgium/mybb-to-flarum

Guess it should be moved to "extensions" too ?

Even though it's a hybrid, let's give the benefit of the doubt 😉

Is there any log can view, if something failed or process stopped during migration?

MichaelBelgium

FBI The flarum log includes errors in case something fails while migrating

After a few seconds migration is stopped with this error: Oops! Something went wrong. Please reload the page and try again

I can see that some users have been imported.

MichaelBelgium looking at log records may be insufficient. Because too many topics and user forums, there is a transition problem and this problem is not recorded in the log file.

MyBB -> FluxBB -> Flarum

I successfully performed the transition scripts.

I'd appreciate it if you tested it. So I don't have to deal with FluxBB. Although all errors in log records are corrected, it still gives error. Even if I activate Debug mode, unfortunately there is no error. As a result, we don't know what the mistake was.
