Transfer from PHPBB to vBulliten

Discussion in 'vBulletin' started by aaron_nimocks, Nov 8, 2005.

    I may transfer my site from PHPBB to vBulliten. Is there any scripts out there that would assist in transfering the database (users, threads, forums, posts, ect.) Or is there an easy way to do this?

    Thanks

    vBulletin has a tool that does this. A friend of mine just upgraded a phpbb forum to vBulletin last night and sisn't have any issues. Worked like a charm. Check out the vBulletin site for more info.

    yeh once yah buy the license etc VB has a script that takes care of it all, all post, threads, members etc are converted. The only thing you lose is things like mods.
