Default Impex Creates Problems

Okay, a bit complicated to explain.

Zoints SEO screwed up my old board to where I could not move it to a new server correctly. I had to eventually import my data to a new clean board, then move that board. This causes my photoplog gallery to be messed up.

After importing, I exported the photoplog tables from my old database and imported them into the new one.

http://mshawking.asmallorange.com/~k...ums/photoplog/

If you go there, you'll see that everything LOOKS okay, but it really isn't. Try clicking a user's name and you get this:

Invalid User specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator

I realize this is because when I imported the old forum the userIDs change and photoplog still has the old userIDs.

Is there anyway I can fix this? I'm willing to pay, upgrade to pro, whatever to get it fixed.

If I can't fix it from where I am now, is it possible to fix it any possible way? Some way I can salvage my old photoplog?


EDIT:: Nevermind. Ran into more problems.

Wish we could help you, but as far as I know Morgan does not use SEO. So I have no idea to help you. And what happens if you temporarily disable SEO? It's just the only idea I have.

TruthElixirX, you are correct that ImpEx can assign new userids/threadids/etcetera, and PhotoPlog is not a part of that process, but the gallery is not lost. Both the photoplog_fileuploads table and the photoplog_ratecomment table contain userid and username fields, so it would be possible to update the userid in the PhotoPlog tables by querying the vB user table, fetching the new userid in the vB user table based on the username in the PhotoPlog tables. The other thing that would need to be done is to rename the userid directories in the PhotoPlog images directory, from the old userid to the new userid.

Thanks for the help, but I found a work around for the whole thing last night.
