Hello,
I am reworking this script. I have tested it in the field and had a few snags with original images and categories.
It will not touch your PRO install, only import and copy into an empty vBGallery.
- thumbs (ok)
- med (ok)
- originals (ok and not)
- comments (ok)
- categories (ok and not)
Originals do copy over but seem to swap @ some random interval the HxW values and stretch images. (I'll look more in the code)
Categories seem to copy over great except for "member galleries".
One category (owned) was made for each user that uploaded to the "member galleries" empty of images.
vBGallery handles member galleries a bit different by dumping images into 1 category and a choice per category to display as member galleries or not. All of the images were copied over but left a mess of empty personal categories that I removed later.
I'll keep you updated on more testing.
==================================================
How to use this script:
1). Back up your images and PhotoPost database.
2). Download the file below and open it with a text editor. You will see a place where it is necessary to set the path to three different places (your PhotoPost installation, your forums, and your vBGallery files directory). Change the paths accordingly.
3). Upload the file to your root directory, go to the file in your browser, and follow the instructions there.
4). Remove the file from your server once it has finished.
5). Enjoy.

Thanks for the help and testing.
