Hello,
I am planning to migrate my current forum on dadabik.com, based on phorum (phorum.org) and I am evaluating a few solutions including xenforo.
I have two questions:
1) I currently have around 20k posts to migrate and I know there isn't an official importer from phorum. I could try a two-steps process (going through phpBB for example) but I don't know if it is worth doing it, also considering that, to increase security, I modified the way phorum stores password. So I think I would finally need to manually create a migration script.
Is there anybody here who did a phorum -> xenforo migration in the past? If yes, can you tell me if it's easly doable and/or do you have any hint?
2) In my forum, only customers can register, so I need to check, during registration, the email (it must be a valid customer's email).
Is it possible in xenforo to provide a custom validation function for the email?
Thanks.
