Import Links

[thunderclap82]

I know this is a longshot, but I'm curious if there's a way to preserve forum links. On our forum the threads end in something like 'showthread.php?tid=21030', but it looks like Xenforo ends in 'threads/query-regarding-xenforo-licence.189877/'. The reason is because we have a WordPress database of several hundred items that link to topics in our forum and I'd like to preserve that if at all possible so we don't need to it manually.

The URLs are different but there are redirection scripts available which will automatically redirect traffic from the old VB URL to the new XF URL.

Sorry, should have been more specific. We use MyBB.

There isn't a script available for MyBB but if content IDs are retained, it would be possible to use standard query strings in .htaccess to redirect traffic.
