The Kunena team has announce the arrival of Kunena 7.0.8 [K 7.0.8] in stable which is now available for download as a native Joomla extension for J! 5.4.x/6.0.x./6.1.x. This version addresses most of the issues that were discovered in K 6.2 / K 6.3 / K 6.4 and issues discovered during the last development stages of K 7.0
This is for users to help other users, to discuss topics that relate to migrating from other web-based forums and converting the data into a form that will operate with Kunena.
It is important to note that the Kunena team does not have a standard, recommended or supported protocol for these ideas and that posting questions in this category may not receive advice from team members.
Question
[Solved] Migration phpbb3 to Kunena 5.0.14
For me certain html tags appeared after conversion like smilies, youtube tags, certain links tags, but it does not disturb me much most people dont read old posts. What you can fix are the smilies html tags, but you have to make changes in the conversion script for this. Youtube-links and links tags are impossible to remove, because they are variable. The script does not remove such things. What happen when you make a new post. Note that in Kunena Admin, Tools, Diagnostics certain errors can be fixed. Also Re: errors.

I finally managed to migrate my database and enter the back office of my site.
I also reactivate the categories that were hidden. They appear now. More than a few tweaks to do.
After the migration, all visible posts are written in raw HTML and we see the code. Even by changing the Joomla editor, nothing changes. I think it comes from migration. All the codes appear instead of loading the format.
Have you solved this last issue? I am working on a project to convert a PHObb 3.1 to a Kunena 5.0 (or earlier) - I was able to discuss the project with the developer of the MixerERP script which was helpful. He quoted me a decent price to do the conversion, but I am going to give it a few more tries before giving up!
Do you mean phpBB 3.1 to Kunena? It should be possible to convert rather easy. I have done that myself and also phpBB 3.0.14. The problem is if you have JFusion bridge that gives Joomla users another userid after conversion. But i made my own scripts to adjust for that.

Yes 3.1 => Kunena - no bridge installed. Fresh setup of Kunena. I suspect it may be a database issue as referenced above, so I'll give it another go.
What errors did you get? You must check that the database tables that you are going to convert are OK by controlling them in phpMyAdmin. The most difficult for me was to find where I start the conversion in Toad.
