Hello,

I have converted my board successfully from vbulletin to phpbb.
I have more than 60 private messages in my vBulletin account.
First, there were no private messages in my mybb inbox. I have performed this guide, Then the Private Messages were shown, but they have no title, so I could not select or see them.
Then I have re-convert the private messages with this patch , now each private messages is shown twice. one of them has title and another one has not ! ( see the attached file )
I have attachet a picture of the # Structure mybb_privatemessages table too.
Please help me.

Best Regards
I'm confused, did you convert:
vb->phpbb->mybb
or
vb->mybb?

And when you reconvert you have to delete the database of MyBB (revert it back to post install, or delete and reinstall if you didn't make a backup of MyBB before trying the convert)
Hello,

They are 2 separate conversions :
vb -> MyBB
vb -> phpBB


I have find the solution.
Just use this file for private message conversion . If you could see no private messages in your profile, run this sql query in phpmyadmin :
UPDATE `mybb_privatemessages` SET `folder` = '1' WHERE `folder` = '0'; 

I suggest remove this topic in important section. Because users will run the attached vbpmsfix.php and cause no-title private message problem.

Thanks !
