I must say, the first test import from a fairly large established Vbull 3.8 forum to Xenforo 2 was absolutely first class. Very easy and a thorough import. Everything went well, all major aspects seem to be working correctly. The only thing Ive noticed is that our moderators and admins have...

Howdy, I am about to buy XF2. If I understand correctly, there is a built in database import/conversion feature that should be able to handle upgrading from vB 3.8.1. If that is the case, I am not sure about the steps involved. My plan is to do a clean install of XF2 on a Snappy 8000 VPS plan...

Hi all, We have an old forum still running vB 3 and we're working on migrating towards Xenforo. We've done an import and first off, well done, it went without a hitch and most of our stuff was transferred over properly and in reasonable time (about 15 hours iirc - when we tried Discourse it...

I'm running the latest version of Xenforo 1.5.x. Is it possible to import media from sonnb's xenGallery to Xenforo's Media Gallery? Where can I find the relevant information regarding this? Is there a FAQ?

This command attempts to import the vBulletin 3/4 moderator log into XenForo 2. It originated from a bug report: vB4 Import: Support for importing the moderator log. It is by no means a finished product and I cannot provide any guarantees or support! The command has served me well during my vB4...

Hi, I just connected a newsfeed to the forum and it works. But i have two additional questions: 1. I'd like to reduce the max number of characters in a newsfeed post. People should only see a part of the post like the next example...

I did an XF2 upgrade the other day. Finally got it to work, but there were too many issues with the database and was causing all kinds of slow downs and other server side issues that I just did a completely fresh install of XF2. Is there a way at all to get the XF1 data for users and posts...

Hello! I imported from SMF 2.0.14 and i could see all the topics before messing around with styles. What could possibly be the issue?

I've been performing an import from vB 3.8. Everything was going smoothly until I click the "Import Attachments" button, and I got this error: I skipped importing "content tags" step because I don't want tags from previous vBulletin site. Was that the problem? I don't think so. And got...

I tried to import a SMF 2.0.13 forum to latest version of XenForo. I got this error message and the import ended. Any suggestions what to do next?

I"m password protecting our test site the simple way via .htaccess, even before the very long import process (importing millions of posts from VB4). Will that cause any problem with the import? I assume not, just want to confirm, thanks!

Doing some practice imports here, (importing from VB4+VBSEO), just have a simple question. Have many XF addons to install... does it really matter if the addons are done before or after the import? Thanks

I'm looking to move to xF from a growing phpBB community. A few threads here address the available support for importing phpBB (up to version 3.1) into xF. One thread mentioned that importers are added for "stable releases." Now that phpBB 3.2 is reportedly stable, are there plans to add an...

Hi we're trying to convert a very customized VB4+VBSEO forum with a few million posts to XF. Did a test import about a week ago which seems to have worked. However I didn't try to rebuild the search index until today. When I try to do that, it instantly confirms that it's done, which is kinda...
