Im looking to taking my current vbulletin4 forum and use Xenforo. However in terms of copying over the MySQL databases etc... is all beyond my knowledge.
Is there a step-by-step guide on this or a service where someone will do this for me?
I don't think there's a step by step guide that will talk you through the whole process. There are indeed instructions for how the importer works, though.
I am happy to do this with you and talk you through the process at the same time. You might learn something
thanks for the help... started to use the guide.. however my old forum is on another website, this seems to want to take it from the same server.
I assume I need to change where it says MySQL Server: localhost.
any help appreciated
I have cpanel.... I tried to download my mySQL from the old server (32mb) tried to upload it in myPHPadmin on the new server but just threw an unknown error up
That's the best place to get Installation and Import support.
You can post there after you have logged in here: http://xenforo.com/customers/forum-users with the account you created when you bought XenForo and just enter your forum username.
