The PMs have to be inserted into separate conversations (which is really how they are displayed in the source system), so this is expected.
lets say we had a pm together with me having posted 5 messages and u another 5. well now it shows 1 msg. if this isnt useless then describe how it is usefull ..The PMs are transferred in the exact same format as they were on vBulletin, how can that be considered useless? vBulletin 3.8 doesn't have the concept of "conversations", just private messages. There is no reliable way to link together responses from on PM to the next. As such, the logical transport method is to keep them as they are: separate "conversations" or replies.
what i am saying this that the pm with my 5 msgs and ur 5 msgs can not be accessed as it used to be. probably it is divided into 10 seperate convertations, however if on xf i start a new convertation with u and i post 5 msgs and u another 5 they are all visible into a single page. it is crucial for me to solve this in order to make the site live.That is exactly the structure of vBulletin. You send a message to me, I access it individual like I would a user. I send you a message, you do the same. You send me a message, its still the individual message. There was no concept of "number of replies" or "conversations." You haven't lost a single PM, and they can be found just like they were on vBulletin, except there is no concept of a sent / inbox folder in XenForo.
Are you saying that PMs on vBulletin were useless?
so i have to change "Maximum conversation recipients:" to 1 for no invitations ?That would require custom development.
so then Maximum conversation recipients = 2 ?No, that would stop anyone from starting a conversation.
hmm i tested and by setting 2 there. means i can invite 2 members so Maximum conversation recipients must be 1If you want to restrict them to two members only, yes.
That is an option which the conversation starter can choose.there is also Allow anyone in the conversation to invite others option which prevents invites
