Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
Hi there - 1st off, thank you! This is a great project.
My issue is that it seems bbcode links that look like this in the phpbb database:
[url]http://www.some-site.com[/url]
Are being transformed into either this (if keeping bbcode):
[url]http//www.some-site.com[/url]
As a result, Drupal is thinking these are local links, and doing this:
Any ideas? I'm using the latest version of the bbcode module (6.x-1.2). Thanks!

NaheemSays CreditAttribution: NaheemSays commentedI cannot see the latter, but the problem is probably with the bbcode module as that is used for the transformation.
WHen I imported data, I did not transform the bbcod -I kept it as it and just activated the bbcode filter as part of the default filter (but turned off the smart line break option that is part of bbcode.)

NaheemSays CreditAttribution: NaheemSays commentedno - I think you have to choose a format if you want to lose the bbcode.
Comment #5
stoptime CreditAttribution: stoptime commentedThink I got it! In case anyone else needs this:
1. Make sure you have a BBCode Input Format setup.
2. In migration configuration, select BBCode Under Input Format settings.
3. In migration configuration, under Encoding setting, make sure "Change encoding of text strings during the import" is NOT checked.
This seemed to work better for me than trying to change BBCode into HTML.
Cheers.
