Allow members of Vanilla forum access xenFora site

[The Gloomster!]

Hi,

I'm in the process of setting up a new forum as a side venture to an existing forum.
However, the existing forum is run on the Vanilla platform and I'm not happy with the service they provide. Is it possible to run the new forum on xenFora but access the existing forum's members' names and log-in details to run both fora side by side?

Also, looking at AI moderation. Is this a service that xenfora provide or can a third party supplier access posts in real time?

Why would you want to run both? You could (if the importer allows) just move to Xenforo and migrate all of the data from Vanilla. You wouldn't need to use vanilla again.

Would love to do that but the vanilla site is owned by someone else. It would be easier to host everything on Vanilla but I’m not impressed with the functionality or the service from vanilla.
