I don't have experience with either of those programs, but I think you can convert them.

It looks like phpnuke is keeping the date in a DATE (or maybe a DATETIME or TIMESTAMP) column and xoops is keeping the date in an INTEGER column in Unix timestamp format.

If both of those are true then you can easily convert from one or the other using the |FROM_UNIXTIME() or ||UNIX_TIMESTAMP() functions.

I am testing moving from a phpnuke site to a xoops site. In doing so, I am trying to get the user table moved over.

I see in the phpnuke tables (which a similar table exists in xoops) that the users have a sign up date. The date in phpnuke is the calendar day, May 1, 2004, for example. In xoops, it is seconds since 1-1-1970.

Is there a way to convert all 24K+ users from the day to the second format?

And, if not, would it be possible to zero out or empty the records? And, what are the ramifications of doing so? (The most important to us is the ability to keep username, email, and password.)

Thanks
Eric
