Hi, I have a forum that is XMB 1.8 (xmb site is http://www.xmbforum.com) and I want to transfer the posts over to my new Drupal message board. It is fine if the usernames don't transfer because I want everyone to re-register at the drupal site anyway. I really can't lose all of the posts though. Any advice? THANK YOU! - matt

I don't know XMB, but I'd export the data to CSV or something, make a backup of it and store it somewhere safe, then study the table/field names and if possible do a search/replace to make it match Drupal.
Then import everything into MySQL.
Someone else might have a much easier way but this is how I'd start at it anyway.
