Ah, right. I think I understand. Thanks :)

Have to say, I think it might be useful for those of us who are planning to port over to xenforo, but want to make the change as smooth as possible for our users? I'm tempted to install on my existing vB4 to get my users used to it before I port over.

Thanks. As I'm on shared hosting with hostgator, how would I restart the server? Also I'm not sure I follow you with regards to redirection. Do you mean that if I do an import with xenforo at /xenforotest then I need to implement redirection once I move xenforo to /forum ? or is it to do with...

I've currently got my xenforo installed at a temp location on my webspace, at /xenforotest my existing vB4 is installed at /forum Once I do a final import of my vb4 database into xenforo and it's all working, what do I need to do to move my /xenforotest to /forum - in terms of what...

The problem is that it now seems to be causing the import to fail in certain circumstances.

I understand that, but I don't think it is pre-filling. I think that for some reason the boxes are showing the variable name when the string is empty.

I've definitely got 1.51 then. And it wouldn't work until I removed those spaces. interestingly, with the built in 3.7/3.8 importer each of the fields was pre-filled with a $config line. Before I deleted the spaces, those fields were blank in your vB4 importer. once I deleted the spaces, the...

Actually, I AM using 1.51. unless there's more than one version of 1.51 ?

I just manually removed the spaces. Guess what? I didn't get the error. ;)

I downloaded it the other day, so I presume I'm using 1.51 I used exactly the same credentials when using the built in 3.7/3.8 importer, which worked first time.

I get this: Server Error Access denied for user ' root'@'localhost' (using password: YES) Zend_Db_Adapter_Mysqli->_connect() in C:\xampp\htdocs\xenforo\library\Zend\Db\Adapter\Abstract.php at line 459 Zend_Db_Adapter_Abstract->query() in...

Ah, that explains it. Thanks for the quick reply. :)

Cheers. will try to make sense of it. :)

I've tried this but it keeps failing on the database password. I'm running it on XAMPP 1.7.4 on my local machine, with the user root and the password password. The import worked using the built in 3.7/3.8 importer, but the 4.0 importer generated around 8 error lines and gave up. Any ideas?

I've imported my vB4 database into a local installation to make sure I can get everything working before going live. I've got a 'contact admin' section which, under VB was private so that users (and guests) could start a thread that was only visible by the thread starter and the Admin/moderator...
