Thanks again

Unfortunately, there isn't a way you can do that.

Sorry,

meme201,
Im having the same problem as well...I am developing a tool that will select the posts from a database (A custom one I built before) and automatically posting them to my new forum (kind of a way of importing) but its quite sloppy, and round-about-way. So far it works somewhat, just working out the bugs.

Any help is appreciated

Hey, nice idea, albertacelicas.org.. alas, i don't know how to program so i wouldn't know how to write one myself. but i'm going to look around and see if such a thing exists.

i might need it some day hehe.

why don't you do a "print" selection or a "save as" and copy them over that way????

As of now, you cannot make or import backups or post saves.

I dont really feel like spending hours upon hours of copying 1000's of posts over to my forum. Thats why im trying to automate it.

Unfortunately, at this time the import options is not available. You may, however, requests for it at: Feature Requests.
