NOTE - Always run a backup of your database before performing any upgrade or conversion - do not skip this step please!


Please note that if you are on IPS Hosting you do not need to worry about this, it will be taken care of for you!

UTF8 Database Converter
This tool will convert your IP.Board 3.x database to UTF8 (with a collation of utf8_unicode_ci).
This tool has a web interface and a CLI interface which is preferable where permission allows. The download zip contains full instructions inside the "readme.html" document.

Your original data is not overwritten until you confirm that the conversion has been successful so you can test this out as many times as you like.

Reporting Bugs
If you do spot any bugs, please post it to the bug tracker.

Requirements
Please note that the UTF8 Converter has the following requirements:

PHP 5.3
MySQL 5.0.3

It could work. Backup your database first and try it.

But i can confirm it works for IPB3.

That version converter only has 1.6 doesn't give the option to do it with 1.8 so i had to find a converter online then do it Smile
