Importing from 3.8.x

Thanks. I'll check those links out and then play with the settings.

On my import I lost a lot of avatars too but come to think about it, I did not import on the same server.
I forget. Are avatars stored in a file system or the database in vBulletin?

They are in the database by default. But you have the option to store them in the file system.

I imported a vbulletin database to xenforo. Went smoothly, I am surprised that I don't need to add any files just so that I can import files.

Looks like we'll have to make the switch back to database prior to the next export.

Sorry to bring this up. But after searching.. I still haven;t found the answer.

Where is the vB3 -> XF importer? It sounds like it's built in or something?

It is built in. Here is a guide.
