Moving from another forum to Kunena 1.6 was created by softstor
I have just installed Kunena 1.6 as a new installation and everything seems to be working correctly.

I have already created all of my topics.

I am presently running ccboard. There are not a lot of existing messages, but I would need to move them over. I can easily recreate the messages in Kunena but I would like to keep the origional post time.

Is it possible when creating a new message to specify the creation date and time while logged in as admin?

I don't think so, not without editing the SQL database ... and you really need to have your wits about you if you try to do that. I wouldn't recommend it.

I just edited the records and it was not that difficult. But I would not recommend it to anyone that has a large forum.

I first re-created all of the messages as a admin user. This was done in the forum.

Then I went into mysql and edited the records from two tables:

kunena_messages
kunena_categories

In kunena_messages I edited the following fields:

name
userid
email
time
ip

The only difficult part was the time. I needed to convert the origional post time to unix time.

In kunena_categories I only edited time_last_msg to show the time when the last message in a category was posted.

Everything seems to look correct as if the users have been using this forum all of the time. You can see my forum at www.pyxismteamone.com/forum
