    Upgrading to VB5?

    My existing vBulletin
    - vBulletin 4.x Forum
    - vBulletin Facebook App
    - vBulletin Mobile Suite
    - Branding Free Option

    I want to upgrade my VB4 forum to VB5 this week
    - Can I reuse my Branding Free Option?
    - Can I still use vBulletin Mobile Suite?
    - Can I still use vBulletin Facebook App?
    - How about CMS Suite for VB5? and how much?
    - Can I also setup staging environment? separate to my vb4 live site? how?

    The branding free stays attached to its current license.
    Mobile suite and Facebook apps are not currently ready for vbulletin 5, but will be updated in due time.
    It is not currently part of the vBulletin 5 Connect software, it is planned to return in the future at no additional cost.
    You can have a test license per the license agreement, but it cannot be live.

      Yes afaik

      - Can I still use vBulletin Facebook App?
      Not sure, but I think this is given free with vB5 now so yes it should do if that is the case (if it is ready)

      - How about CMS Suite for VB5? and how much?
      Its not ready, so not available initially, and it will be given as a download for no extra once it is. Also the upgrade will preserve the CMS data in the database ready for use once it is ready, you will just have to do without the CMS initially

      - Can I also setup staging environment? separate to my vb4 live site? how?
      Yes but it needs to be either local or passworded protected if you are running another copy of the same licence
