  • Weekly office hours with Dr. Moore or the class TAs .

He's having a bit of difficulty. My Son is taking CS313K this spring semester under Prof. Moore Would you by chance offer tutoring for the class? He’s having a bit of difficulty.

Your best option is probably to discuss it with some of the other MU users on the bbPress forums. There's probably someone there who's done the exact same thing. http://bbpress.org/forums/tags/wpmu Unfortunately, I haven’t used MU at all so I’m not sure how that works.

Just a question though, does this work if the smf-bbpress converted data will be used for wpmu? Hope to get a response from you soon. Thank you!

If anyone's still looking, check it out. As for the converters, you use the one for whichever version of SMF you currently have, but you'll have to do a bit of tweaking still probably.

I had already established installations of both WordPress and SMF, and I want to convert SMF to bbPress and then merge users with WP. My WP 2.7.1 is placed in root of domain (like example.com) and have three users who publish posts, while SMF 1.1.6 is placed in subdirectory forum (like example.com/forum) with 433 users. My questions are: 1) What version of SMF you used? 2) What version of phpBB you used? 3) What version of converter you used (there are three in <a href="http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=141446" rel="nofollow">this</a> list)? <blockquote>Set up the database integration as part of the bbPress installation and delete any posts created on install.</blockquote> 4) Where did you delete posts, on WordPress, bbPress or both? And does this means that you merged users (integrated databases) on begining, before converting from SMF/phpBB? <blockquote>I had to change bb_users to wp_users, and delete the first user and forum from the SQL because there are already a first user and forum in bbPress. I’m not sure what the topic_resolved key was from, so I removed that option. Then I copied and pasted the code from bbPress into this tool to generate my topic and username slugs.</blockquote> 5) Where did you do this? What code from bbPress you copied and from where? 6)Did you do everything from affacat’s instruction, eg. notes 1 and 2 in step 2, step 3, step 5, his fix from second post? If you don't have time to answer this or you have no interest to it, I'm ready to pay you small fee for your instructions or give you some compensation. Anyway, if I succeed in this, I'll make even more detailed post describing whole process so others could benefit too.

They are just two different serialisations of the same language. http://dev.w3.org/html5/html-author/#the-html-and-xhtml-syntax I don't understand what problem you have with HTML5 continuing to use the namespace from XHTML 1.0. That is the namespace that browsers support already and for technical reasons, it makes sense for both them and, therefore, us to continue using it.
