Converting

[BrandonT]

I have an IPB community and finally considering this switch for sure but need to know if there is an conversion for converting my members / topics over? Maybe even the forums I have set up?

Currently only IPB 3.1 is possible.

Which importers/converters are available?
As of 29 August 2011, there were the following importers available:

• There are official vBulletin 3.6 and vBulletin 3.7/3.8 importers built in to the software.
• There is an official IP.Board 3.1.x importer built in to the software.
• An unofficial vBulletin 4.0/4.1 importer is available as an add-on.
• An unofficial PunBB 1.2/1.3 importer is available as an add-on.
• An unofficial FluxBB 1.4 importer is available as an add-on.
• An unofficial SMF 2 importer is currently being developed.

Will the IPB 3.1 importer work for 3.2?

 

[Paul B]

No, the database schema is different.

Alright, any idea on if and when this will be updated to 3.2? That will be only thing holding me back at the moment and thank you for help btw.

 

[Paul B]

Unfortunately I don't have any information on that.

The current focus is on 1.1, which is currently in Beta status, so it will be some time after that.

I am also interesting for converting IPB 3.2.3 to xenforo - hope that will be soon!
