Migrating vbulletin 4.0 + vbulletin blog to XF ?

[woofster]

Yes, I asked this about two months ago.

Any heartbeat on being able to port our vb blog to XF ?

We see the main forum will port fine.

TIA!

From what I gather, Oninua and several others are getting together and will be releasing add-ons, including the blog, as paid add-ons. Paid means supported in my book, so that might ptovide you with a safe(r) option.

With that said, I never had any issues whatsoever with the blog so far, and we converted last April. It's an excellent add-on.

Yes, paid is good, for us...

Onimua is top quality.
There is almost zero evidence to worry he won't keep his addon up to date.
To top it off, there is a longstanding track record (years and years in the vBulletin pre-Xenforo era) of him making stable addons and supporting them.

Dr,
Thanks mucho!
We may yet take that route!

1) Get Marioman's vb4 to xf 1.1 importer - http://xenforo.com/community/threads/vbulletin-4-importer-to-xenforo-1-1.23674/
2) Get my modified myvbulletin4.php - http://xenforo.com/community/threads/vbulletin-4-importer-to-xenforo-1-1.23674/page-3#post-296693 and replace in Marioman's importer
3) Use the modified importer - it imports the blogs as threads
4) Use Onimua's paid importer to import the threads as LN Blogs
5)You're done

Using this method I had problem importing only 2 posts (out of 186,363 ) - one was containing only a quote without text, other was a blog without caption, that were the problems. After I found the problematic posts I modified them and everything imported fine.
