PhpBB3 uses strange unique ID's within the BBcode they store in the database for post content.
Example: [url:17ejkhi]http://www....[/url:17ejkhi]
First, I'm unsure what the point of these is, and second, Kunena doesn't like them.
My regex isn't strong enough to write a parser for this converter. Anyone come up with a solution?
Thanks.
If you know of a find/replace tool within a text editor that will enable you to do a
url:???????] and replace with
url] then that is easily done via a database dump (using an export and then re-import the database..
I've had a look at a test DB I did and the URL statements all have an "onclick" statement on them that is easy to get rid of using this method, but I presume the bit after [url: is a hex dynamic, if so then you may have a hard time finding an editor with a working find/replace
