Is it possible to export my vbulletin cloud hosted forum to stand alone vbulletin install?

[Davids355]

I am currently using vbulletin cloud and very happy with the service.
However, just for peace of mind I wondered if it is possible to export the forum - should I ever decide to purchase vbulletin and host it myself?

If not currently possible, are there plans to make it possible in the future?

Yes. You can put in a ticket and request a database backup.

that's great, thanks for the quick reply. As I said, I'm not even thinking about leaving as the service is fantastic, but its nice to know that it is possible.

Yes. You can put in a ticket and request a database backup.

what about files, for example uploaded pictures?

I am seriously thinking of moving from the cloud to self-hosted forum for numbers of reasons.

Could you please provide a link that describes the migration process?
