Hi Chuck,

thanks for the info. I will update my old posting later on accordingly.

o.k., but what happens if I merge 2 or 3 usergroups in the phpbb3 database with phpmyadmin after I reintegrated with RP?

In vb3 this was not a problem, because I could do it in the ACP of vb and then just refreshed in ACP of RP the usergroups.

But since phpbb3 has no option in ACP for this, I need to do it directly in the database with mysql commands. Will this have a negative consequence on RP usergroups if I hit then "refresh" in the RP ACP?

I have not thought about this scenario. Thanks for the heads up. So I will definetly use the script in step 6

I keep you updated...
