My import from phpBB2Drupal has some very weird side effects and perhaps someone could shed a bit of light on this. All users and Forums are imported successfully, yet can you follow this example (really happening);

  1. User WWII (Original PHPBB ID: 744) is imported from phpBB and a profile page and user for WWII (New ID: 20444) is created on Drupal.
  2. User WWII's Posts (from phpbb, now in drupal) are then assigned to user XXX (Drupal ID: 3498).. an existing Drupal Member. XXX assumes all of WWII's topics

This doesn't happen to every member... it appears completely random and I'm looking for that common link and explanation.

ALSO NOT: this happens to a few imported forum categories. Example (really happening);

Forum "Mocha Support" (from phpBB) is dumped into forum "Cafe Support" (existing Drupal Forum).

Anything?

Thanks for all the feedback! *NOT*

Fix is to empty the pphpbb2drupal temp tables. Still had crap in them from the last import and I just assumed the 'clean-up' would empty them. So, don't forget to empty the temp if you important more then one phpbb forums.
