XF 1.2 Best process to move site to this

[gavpeds]

Hi, so i am planning to transfer my site currently running on ipb to xf.

I am wondering what you would suggest is the best process being that my forum is fairly active and obviously the ipb i would be importing from is on the main domain that i will be wanting to install xf.

Should i move my current forum to a folder on the main domain first? what would you suggest is the best process?

Thanks

This thread covers the process of importing:http://xenforo.com/community/threads/importing-guidelines.25325/

Install XF in a directory, do all your testing, etc., then do your final import and move it to where you want.

Ok thanks. I have already installed in a directory to test and imported to test also.
So that's all good. Thanks

So once i have done my final import and move to the root domain. to i need to change anything in the config at all?
