In preparation for my Import and Migration to vB3 Gold, are there any steps I need to take, or criteria I need to meet before I am able to start the import process...? I obviously want to ensure I have everything ready prior to the script being ready.
Some specific questions I have are:
Do the vB3 files need to reside in the same account/domain web space as my current forum software but obviously in a different directory...? i.e.
vB3 = mydomain/vBforums/all the vB code
other = mydomain/otherforums/all the other forum code
What about the underlying database...? On the domain I wish to use vB3 Gold, I have 2 MySQL databases. Both are used - 1 for my existing forum. Do I need a new database, or will the tables and schema for vB3 Gold be created on the MySQL database used for the existing forum...?
What happens to the old forum tables...? nothing I assume?
Hope I'm not causing any frustration with all these questions...
