    Can we convert Invision Power Board to Vbulletin ?

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

      Is there likely to be a converter tool from IPB 3 to vB?

        Is there a big demand for it?


        vB5 is unequivocally the best forum software, but not yet...

          Well IPB is one of vB's top competitors, so I'd say probably.. or at least there will be. There is an importer for IPB, but I don't believe for v3 yet. Also, this thread is 5 years old.

            There already is one. This thread you are looking at is almost 5 years old and was out of date about a month after it was posted.
