Concidering moving from IPB 1.3 to vB

[TCH-Mike]

Hi,
I work for a webhosting company that currently uses IPB 1.3 final, and the boss is concidering moving to vB. Since I'm the one that maintains the forums for the company, does all of the upgrades etc I'd like some information on converting IPB to vB. I did a search but didnt come up with much, other than it is possible. Our forums are pretty active and are a big part of our site so making sure everything goes smoothly is my highest priority.

Any info, tips, tricks, horro stories would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Our current import script has only been tested for IB versions up to 1.12, although I have seen it work with 1.2. To my knowledge it hasn't been used for 1.3 yet.

I don't know of any reason why it shouldn't work with IPB 1.3.

There are some issues (covered here) with importing quotes but these should be fixed shortly.
