Yes I know the htaccess was / is required, I had it implemented but it wasn’t working for me. In the end, removing forumdisplay.php & shrowthread.php from the old vB /forums folder was what was key to it working. Obviously with them still being present in the folder it was upsetting the rewrite...

Yep, the addon comes with the necessary .htaccess rules

Well I don’t know what to tell you, but it’s all working now as I was originally expecting it to. Old links referencing the /forums folder are now happily redirected to the correct areas of the XenForo installation in the /community folder

We have a customised payment_gateway.php file still residing in there that handles recurring payment IPN from paypal that were originally set up under the vB system and passes that data on to the XenForo system

Sorted it out, just replying here to let you guys know. Re-read back through this thread and This Post gave me the answer I needed. Removed showthread.php and forumdisplay.php from the old /forums folder and now everything redirects to the correct area of the XenForo installation (y)

Yep, that's all done. It seems as though the issue here is that the old vB style URLs are simply not getting pushed over to XenForo to be dealt with by the redirects addon in the first place. I am using the standard .htaccess file supplied with the addon and have placed this in the root of the...

I understand this, but when I visit an old vBulletin link, it does not redirect it to the XenForo format, it just simply opens the link, lets say a specific thread, in the old vB installation. My understanding was that if someone hits a vB link to an old thread it should be redirected to the...

I managed to fix this issue by upgrading the PHP version that was serving our old vB content. Now visiting www.domain.com/forums correctly redirects to www.domain.com/community However, we have now encountered another issue in that if we visit a link to a specific forum or thread under the old...

Hi. We have just completed our migration over from vBulletin 4.2.5 to Xenforo 2.2.12 and have followed the steps to have redirects in place to redirect from our old vB location which was at www.domain.com/forums to our new XF location which is at www.domain.com/community. However, when...

Thank you for your reply. I had already discovered both of those templates as a possibility. However, neither of them achieve quite what I'm looking for. For example, making the above edit to the thread_list_macros template only seems to add thread's creation time alongside the creation date...

I am attempting to make this template change so that the date & time each reply to a thread was made is displayed, instead of just the date as it currently is, but I cannot for the life of me find the correct template to edit. Please can someone advise on which template I need to modifiy

Strange, My apologies. I hadn't spotted this Hopefully someone will have a better / cleaner solution that they can recommend :)

Remove everything from the 'payment_received_receipt_user_upgrade' email template Remember to do this for each style you have enabled on your forum
