You can't :

You can write a 301 script using the old id's to tell google is permanently moved.

It's just an example of how an admin/programmer can write a script to do it, an example script that was the basis for development of it was released then withdrawn due to it needing customising for each site and was only released as an example to help customers opposed to being a finished and fully supported script.

Here it is on vBulletin.org :
