I tried this one out...and it screwed up my whole forum.

Can you describe what exactly it did so lew may be able to find out the source of the issue

[shoes22 Alex]

well i exaggerated a little bit...you see I had a phpbb3 beta 1 forum I was testing out...and just to test I tried upgrading to beta 2. While I was upgrading I made sure that the database schema was the same as that of a new beta 2 installation and everything transferred smoothly, except the bbcode. When viewing elements of my forum that have bbcode, i.e. posts and signatures, some of it showed up fine and others showed up like the bbcode was not parsed. The problem seemed to go away if I edited the original post that wasn't parsing the bbcode and submitted it again. Although since I had a lot of posts on this forum, I didn't want to go and edit each post manually. When I found this mod I thought all my problems would be solved...i installed it and ran it, but now when I view posts it looks like the bitfield is messed up too. Here is an example of how some posts look:

The bbcode doesn't seem to be parsing

Can you tell value of bbcode_bitfield and bbcode_uid fields of this post?

[shoes22 Alex]

the bitfield field seems blank...
but the bbcode uid is cd3ae

Did you check it in DB?

If yes, then I think that my script didn't do anything bad, but didn't do anything good too. I will check what is the reason... Last question: When have you downloaded file with this script?

[shoes22 Alex]

I did check the DB...it is possible that your script didn't do anything at all. I haven't looked at my forum since two days ago and it's possible it was like this before. My method of editing the post and resubmitting it fixes the problem...but once again i don't want to do this for everything. I should note the method does not work for signatures though.
