I have a running vb 3.8.6 on site.com/forum/ and have been playing with XF on site.com/beta/
The front page is using Wordpress
I'm also working to move to another host but I'd like to ask for suggestion on what the optimal way to move forward
1) Close the VB for few hours, import VB to XF on the /beta/ site, get all the mod ready, the change the path url on XF control to /forum/ and change the /beta/ to /forum/ after rename VB installation /forum/ to /vb/
What are other things that I have to keep in mind with this approach?
2) Get the new server ready, then install XF on the /forum/ folder there, then backup and restore the VB database in the server with all the files under some /vb/ folder on the new server.
Then import VB to XF.
Then change the domain registrar to point to new server.
Thank you.
