Converting from Yabb Gold SP 1.3.1 to vBulletin

[Joe Blow]

I bought vBulletin a couple of days ago to run my forum which is currently using Yabb Gold SP 1.3.1. I was under the impression I could convert from this to YabbSE and then to vBulletin 3 but apparently I can only go to vBulletin 2 via this method.

Can anyone tell me the definitive way to get from Yabb Gold SP 1.3.1 to vBulletin 3?

Please help me, I'm desperate :eek:

If you can convert to YaBBSE first, then you will be able to use that Impex importer to import directly to vB3.

Has anyone successfully transferred a community from Yabb Gold 1.3.1 to vBulletin 3 via this method?

This method does not seem to be working well for me.

I am about ready to offer money to someone who can convert my forum from Yabb Gold 1.3.1 to vBulletin 3.0.3.

Do I have to go from Yabb Gold 1.3.1 to Yabb SE?

Can I go from Yabb Gold 1.3.1 to something else and then to vBulletin?

Help!

Okay I have made some progress:

I have successfully converted my board to Yabb SE.

I have used the Impex facility to import all the information into vBulletin.

I have updated the thread and forums counters.

Now the main index looks okay but when I click on one of the forums, there are either none or just a few threads inside.

Can anyone suggest what may be happening or what I may have failed to do?

Thanks!
