Hello:

I was wondering if there is a conversion program that I can run to convert posts into pages. If I just had a few posts to turn over to pages I would not ask this question, but I have a ton of posts, and I need something quicker to do the job.

Thanks

Do you really want a "ton" of pages?

So far as I know, nobody has written anything to take the content of a post and create a page.
But you could do this. Start with a list of msg_ids, associate a page_id with each msg_id.

Next, you'd have to get the message contents (you could even use ssi_fetchPosts to get the post contents and other information).

After that, you'd need the code to actually create a custom bbc page, and only if it is a new topic.
Please to keep this website running, if you like SimplePortal, make a
one-time subscription. Thank you for your support.

Have you tried the SimplePortal documentation?

Hello:

I would like to thank you for taking the time to help me out. I figured I would ask the question, and maybe look dumb then have found out after I put in allot of man hours that there was a program that could have done it for me. As Scrooge McDuck says "Work smarter not Harder"

Thanks
