    Lightbulb Can we convert phpbb to Vbulletin ?

    As I got a forum running in Phpbb and there are posts in it. Could we bring all the post over in Phpbb and transfer to Vbulletin ? Is this possible ?

    Regards
    Symmatrix

    You can only download the importers after you have bought a vBulletin license.

    Yes, the import scripts are avilable with leased licenses as well.

    Please do not email or PM me for vBulletin support. I will be more than glad to answer your questions on the vB Forums and in the support system.

    Just remember that what happens in localhost, stays in localhost.

    What about us still on Phpbb ver 2.0.4? Upgrading to 2.0.10 will be a major pain since we are switching to Vbulletin ASAP!

    You could try upgrading from phpBB 2.0.4 > vB2.x series > vB3

    Sounds good, If we buy the VB3.03 package can we still access VB2 packages to do this?

    Yes

    When you purchase it, you can download the latest vB2.x series or vB3.x.

    It would be in your best intrests to upgrade to phpbb 2.0.10 and then import to vB3 if it is at all possible.
