IPB to Xenforo converter

How is the custom usergroup imported in Xenforo?
I have few custom usergroups and lots of users under them.
Are they going to be migrated also?

Yes, your groups are mapped and imported.

Cool! Do I need to set again the forum permissions of each usergroups? or it will be mapped also?

The importer will try a best guess effort, though given how different XenForos permissions work to IPB I would suggest re-setting them regardless.

When I did my import it worked just fine.. but I wasn't real complicated on my setup. But that was quite a while back.

Will the post IDs will remain the same? So I can do a 301 redirect..

If you select the option to retain IDs, yes.

Even if you don't, you can still redirect using the script.
