!!IMPORTANT!!; A Thing That Is Happening

So unbeknownst to me, Invision/ZIF boards are going the way of the dinosaur. I found this out last night when I got e-mails about a couple of my other boards suddenly being turned into Tapatalk forums.

Apparently there has been notification in the Admin CP since July... but I've checked the CP several times in that specific area and didn't see anything. I'm willing to believe I missed the notification in October, I wasn't paying as much attention then... I say this only because I wish I had more notice to have warned you guys.

Basically what's happening is we're being converted either to Tapatalk forums or Zetaboards forums. As far as I understand, neither of them use BBCode. Or... they say they do, but the PMs I've been able to see suggest they don't. Which means every single one of the posts in this archive are going to lose all their coding... or rather, each post's coding is going to be on display for everyone, for every post. This is the case for ALL ZIF/Invision forums, which includes FIW, NGIW, and similar sites. If you'd like a look at what awaits forums that turn into Tapatalk... check out Neon Generation. Those of you who were there back in day may remember the gorgeous neon wonderland it was. Now it's... well, it looks like a shitty amateur cell phone app and there really isn't much I can do about that.

More concerning than simple graphical changes is the fact that currently I can't access any of the old posts at Neon Gen. And while I can make new posts, I sure as hell can't see them.

So this leads me to the primary reason I posted this topic; you guys may want to back up old RPs, shows, or anything else you might want to save from this board. I requested this board's transition be deferred... and if we switch at all to switch to Zetaboards, which are MORE similar to ZIF/Invision than Tapatalk but I'm still VERY concerned about the archives. I imagine even with Tapatalk it's a temporary state, that the old topics will eventually show back up or whatever. I'd rather not take risks personally. We were supposed to have already been moved to Tapatalk on the 7th... and I'm very grateful we weren't, but who knows if I got the request in with enough time to stop it or when it might eventually happen anyway.

Now, what does this mean for FIW as a fed? I don't know. I was holding off on mentioning this at all because I didn't want to cause a panic but I also want to give you guys time to back up your shit. I'm looking into some other forums for options for things like my personal wrestler archive... and I'm sure they'd work just dang fine for another e-fed. It's a hell of a process to move even the simple shit, setting up the board and all that... and maybe the Zetaboards will be just fine! But it's hard to say at this point. I can't really know until it happens.

So, business as usual until then. Back up your shit if you want it, because I can't gurantee it'll be here and I don't know when it might go away.

That kinda sucks. Hopefully things turn out alright in this. If not, I would suggest a move to proboards/Free forums. I don't know how it is building/maintaining a board there, but I know posting is about the same coding wise. A little different with colors, I know, but the general ones are there. For instance;
Here
Code:
 
[b][color=B048B5]Blink[/b][/color]:[color=FFF380]


There
Code:
 
[b][font color="B048B5"]Blink[/font][/b]: [font color="FFF380"]


There are other coding differences but I don't do enough funky stuff to notice. Anyway, just thought I'd chime in with the suggestion in case FIW does turn into a phone app. :P

That's....that's a nice Sig Jo. A real nice sig.


I appreciate the heads up and spent the last 4 hours compiling the years 2017-2015. I have nearly over 200,000 words saved thus far and that's just promos!

I usually just pop in here to see my stuff and see how ya'll are doing.

A creepster. But if all this could be lost, I'm scrambling to save what I can.

But I've used Zetaboards, they're not bad. Believe the BBcode works there, don't quote but but it's essentially the same.

ProBoards uses the exact same stuff as this place but I find it more accessible.

Honestly the dream is that they convert us to Zetaboards (NOT Tapatalk) and the posts don't up and disappear. A smooth transition would be transcendental.

Raise all hell if not.

But I backed up all promos that involved my characters from my Topics, sure there's tons of other stuff to back up but this has been the most time consuming thing ever.

What sort of access do we have to the database? Maybe I can script something.

I'll go ahead and admin you. Do what you need to do.

EDIT: If you figure something out could you let me know so I can do the same to NGIW?

I see a live preview for Tapatalk is available, but it doesn't exactly give me the warm and fuzzies that Tapatalk is down right now.

Edit Okay it's not down right now. But the preview doesn't do us much good if we can't see the posts themselves.

I don't see any functions to export forum data... I'ma have to resort to scraping.

Too bad there's no better, direct way to view post source than to Edit it. Fortunately as an Admin I can edit other people's posts, so I can probably pull straight BB code for each post on the board.

If I choose to use these powers for evil, it'll be because I have already safely backed everything up somewhere. <.< >.>

[size0]Frankly, I'd be more worried about me using these powers with gross incompetence.

I've made some decent progress tonight. I'm scraping the raw HTML of each post for now and dumping entries to JSON files. Still need thread titles and BBCode, and probably lots of debugging once we get into some of the wacky stuff that was done over the years.

I now have titles and subtitles parsed for. Still no BBCode, but I'll have gathered enough information to go back and get BBCode later.

The floodgates are open. Here's hoping my PC has enough storage for it all, and that invisionfree doesn't block my IP or something.

Update: Woo, first crash! Decoding error on Slam! on March 17, 2005.

Update 2: Fixed decoding error by replacing unknown characters with placeholders. I'm in the 2000s range of forum topics so far and realized that these topics aren't going to be so easy to organize if I don't include category data. I'll come back and add those after tonight's batch is done.

Update 3: In the 6700s now. This topic is 24,726, and I have it going all the way to 30,000 before it stops scanning. I'm going to bed.

Here's the stuff.

This is a dump from very early this morning. Compressed, it clocks in at about 100MB, closer to 300 when uncompressed.

The data is one JSON file per thread. There's something like 21k threads, and the files are titled by thread ID. I suppose I should do something like put the thread title next to the ID.

Also I need to devise a way for you to actually get your posts out of there and view them in a browser, unless you know how to parse JSON files (it's not too hard to figure out).

Lemme know how this works out.

NGIW is next. I forgot what the link was but I was able to find it surprisingly quickly while searching the FIW data dump.

Thanks so much for doing this, man. I hope it all just turns out to be an unnecessary backup, but if it doesn't I'm so glad we can have this piece of our collective history archived. It's a priceless thing you're doing.

Do you need me to admin you over at NGIW? Do you want/need to remain an admin here?

I haven't tried doing anything that requires admin yet. So far I just scraped the HTML of each post that a guest has access to. I'm a little afraid to involve login credentials.

So I've involved login credentials. Giving FIW another run and it looks like I may have some Admin topics to add to the archive.

Exporting BBCode is still in the cards, but the process would take much longer because I'd have to "edit" each post to view source.
