    Method of migrating from ubb.threads (7.5.8 - nothing new, just old and stable version) to vB Cloud?

    I am interested in becoming a vB Cloud customer for many years to come, but first I need to move my current forum over from ubb.threads.

    Is there an import module that can easily handle this? Or do I need to pay a fee for a custom import?

    Has anyone gone via this route before and migrated from ubb.threads?

    At this time vBCloud only allows imports for existing vBulletin sites so you would first need to get a vBulletin download licence and use some means to import into that. There is our old Impex software that has been made open source but we no longer support it and we cannot promise it will work- http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/forum...ad#post4045829

      Just to help the OP clarify....

      By getting a download license, did you mean to buy a new vB5 license? Or ask someone who has an existing license to temporarily use his license to migrate to vB4? If the former, you might as well use the license you bought and not migrate to vBCloud. If the latter, is that legal?
