  1. A while back there was a bug with Content converting to Pages as I remember. Pages has been a issue with me as well where I would have to do a rebuild on them. And by this I mean from scratch, blocks and pages... At this point I am in the process of building a fresh 4.1.3.2 suite on my local. Then if all goes to plan I am going to download my pages files from a 4.0 test and see what effect they will have on the fresh install. Hope fully under the new framework all will go well. Wow! I clicked your link 2 minutes ago now finished answering my post above now at 5:30pm my time it's still trying to resolve. Which versions of php and MySQL are installed on your server? (5:32 still resolving in MS Edge)
  2. From what I remember from the original conversion I did over a year or more ago.... Under Tools there is or was an option prior to the start of the conversion.
  3. Another thought comes to mind... Php and MySQL versions.... Are these also up to date? There is a version issue where the converter nor the upgrader will work properly. To be honest at this point I can't remember exactly where that cut off is. Here it would be a great help for @Matt to chime in for clarification...
  4. You should have had this option, I know I did when I converted mine to utf8mb4.
  5. Did the converter give you the choice between utf8 and utf8mb4? I should have...
  6. Try converting to utf8mb4 instead. This adds other characters that the regular utf8 does not.
  7. Here you will need to submit a ticket in the clients center.
  8. If I am not mistaken that bug was fixed either in 4.0.13 or 4.0.13.1. There was also a patch or two put out by @bfarber on this a few months back in the Knowledge base.
  9. I can't give an exact answer not knowing the size of your database really. As far as members these are also intensely upgraded as well ie: posts, topics, images ect. to the new framework from the older structure that has not been significantly changed since 3.0 and earlier... Where this may get even more interesting is the 4.1 upgrade when it is fully released. My 3.4.7 test upgrade took just under an hour with an 8 gig database.
  10. The conf_global.php is in your forum root directory. It will look similar to this <?php $INFO = array ( 'sql_host' => 'localhost', 'sql_database' => '410b2', 'sql_user' => 'root user name', 'sql_pass' => 'your password', 'sql_port' => 3306, 'sql_socket' => '', 'sql_tbl_prefix' => '', 'sql_utf8mb4' => true, 'board_start' => 1444414185, 'installed' => true, 'base_url' => 'http://localhost/410b2/', 'guest_group' => 2, 'member_group' => 3, 'admin_group' => 4, ); sql_host - Needs to point to the exact location where the database is stored. sql_database - Needs to point to your database base_url - Needs to point to your URL. Your conf_global.php may also appear to be of the previous versions but this is OK as long as the above is all your correct information
  11. As long as you have both URL and database pointing correctly in the conf_global.php. Then yes
  12. -UPDATE- I have just updated my 3.4.7 local test site to 4.1 beta3 with this method.
  13. Hello @SecondSight 1st You are welcome I'm glad you enjoyed the read. Yes this article is written to upgrade in both worlds. Localhost via Wamp, Xampp or any other local based webserver. It is also designed to be used for live server tests as well. If you are planning to do the later upgrade it will work just fine. Have fun testing...
  14. @media You will not need the admin Directory. Go to the bottom of the article and follow the steps in (After creating a 3.4.7 test install and all is working....).
  15. If memory serves me correctly there was a bug reported a while back... Being I have not created an actual 3.4 to 4.1 upgrade on my local but only a fresh install I can't say if they fixed it or not.
  16. Tell me about it.... over 300 for me on the local....
  17. Yes they can upgrade and bring over the avatars as well. And Yes if you decide to do it yourself each will need to be done manually.
  18. Unfortunately even profile images can be effected. What I had to do here was via ACP - Members Go to each member in the Uploads - Profile directory in the root and add each one at a time. This was a bit time consuming indeed.
