I have a joomla installation that I am going to abandon soon. Originally I wanted to convert the fireboard (formerly joomlaboard) and all the users but it seems a bit problematic.

I want to at least be able to preserve the users. Are there any automated scripts or modules that can do this?

Note: I do not know how to code anything other than basic html and css. I can however follow directions.

Here is the handbook page for migrating from "other" software : http://drupal.org/node/271 specifically for joomla : http://drupal.org/node/80195

reading the bottom of the documentation there are a few modules stated to offer help. Including but not limited to a MIgration script called CMS Migrator. Insure you back up your database before deploying any of these methods. A best practice would be to test the modules/scripts on a test site, on your server, or on your local machine with a backup of your DB to insure the conversion works as expected before trying to do so on your production site.

ok I installed the cms migrator module but when I open it right on the settings page it says:
warning: file_get_contents(modules/joomla2drupal/not-found.php.template) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/moolt/public_html/dttka/modules/joomla2drupal/joomla2drupal.module on line 446.

questions about that script should be directed to the site where you downloaded the script.
