Installation / conversion

[RCONN]

I have a vBulletin 3.8 board (about 20K messages), using vbseo.

A couple of questions before I place my order for xenForo:

(1) Does your installation service include the vBulletin conversion?

(2) Does the installation service include the redirection scripts? I've read the messages in your support forums about the vbulletin & vbseo redirection scripts, but it's unclear to me whether I need both of them or just the vbseo. And I'd really rather have somebody who knew what they were doing install that part!

Thanks for your help.

(1) Not sure. I'd ask XenFans.com to do it. Of course, xF has a built-in vB 3.x converter so you could probably do it yourself, easily.
(2) vB3 redirect scripts - http://xenforo.com/community/threads/redirection-scripts-for-vbulletin-3-x.5030/ (Free)

vBSEO redirect - http://xenforo.com/community/threads/redirects-for-vbseod-urls.5098/ (Free).

Pretty sure you'd need both.

The official installation service does not include converting or importing existing forums.

It is installation of the base XenForo software only.

It's a fairly simple process, but if you're not confident of doing it yourself, there are various third parties offering their services: http://xenforo.com/community/forums/third-party-services.42/
