Extract member email address from vBulletin/phpBB forum?

5 replies
Hi, guys,

After I studied some niche forums in my industry, I was thinking of extracting the member emails from vbulletion/phpbb online forum program.

I need a script to go through the member list to get their emails before I can add them into my list. This is the target one, right?

This little program does not need to have a shining interface to get its job done. Any recommendations are welcomed.


Thanks
David

    Hey David,

    Did you mean a script to extract email address from your own forum, or other people's forums?

      Mary,

      I doubt it. If it's your forum, you wouldn't need to extract the addresses.


      David,

      Don't even think about it.

        Paul,

        If he has a forum and a ton of users, it's not easy to make a list of names and addresses manually, especially if it's a VB forum. You'd have to do a lot of cut and pasting into an autoresponder.

        Besides lol, I wanted him to say it before I accussed him of wanting to harvest.

    On your hosting control panel, go into phpmyadmin, look in the USER table, export to CSV or Excel.
