Specialist Services - vBulletin, Big Boards, Custom Imports, Community +Server Management
- Thread starter Slavik
- Start date
I worked with Slavik based on his reputation here, and I was not disappointed. Everything was moved over quickly and works perfectly. We went from vBulletin 3.8 to the latest version of XenForo, and all 7000+ members and 1.4 million posts moved over without issues. His prices were fair for the peace of mind that he had done this so many times in the past, and I had never done this before. We did a test import first to see if everything worked right, and then went live with the full import after that. I would work with him again, if I need this service again, for sure.
After many such requests, I am also accepting clients for ongoing forum and server management work. (Even if I didnt previously import your site).
This includes things such as:
Ensuring your server / environment are working optimally.
Updates and patches.
Planning the provisioning and deployment of new hosting hardware where needed.
Reviewing and ensuring value for money.
Troubleshooting.
From the planning to the end deployment addons with trusted and proven developers.
Most other technical work.
Hit me up a conversation with your requirements and I will be happy to review and suggest a costing and scope of work.

Another great job done by Slavik for us over at LandyZone Land Rover Forum. Slavik originally moved us from vbulletin3 many years ago, and this time an upgrade from an embarrassingly old version of xenforo to the current release, in super quick time. Very impressed and saved me hours of pulling my hair out. Thanks Slavik!
I'm absolutely impressed with @Slavik's work. He managed to transfer my website from a crappy disaster of a server to a fully functional server within what like 10mins? Otherwise this would have taken me probably a full weekend to do myself. He was very paitent with me and helped work on any issues that arised while transfering.
Here's a summary of what he was able to do:
Here's a summary of what he was able to do:
- Setup the new server to be secure and optimized.
- Transfered my database and site files from a buggy Cyberpanel to a new functional cPanel server in a matter of minutes.
- Got SSL up and running.
- Fixed any additional errors that showed up in Admincp.
- Fixed a firewall issue that caused emails to not be delivered.
@Slavik knocked it out of the park for the 3rd time. We had a slightly complex migration going from URLJet / HomePageUniverse.com Slavik migrated not only our hosting but DigitalOcean attachments into a single Vultr server. His price was unbeatable and the service was very quick and painless.
I never thought about leaving a bad review for HomepageUniverse since being with them when they were called URLJet, but I’m sure glad I did, their engineers have gone completely downhill causing more issues than solving them, but I noticed a GIGANTIC speed improvement getting on a Vultr server that Slavik recommended.
Thanks again Slavik! Im sure I’ll be bugging you sooner than later for more help!

We recently had our website Handy Forum completely migrated from vBulletin 4 to the latest XenForo version and commissioned Slavik to do it.
Although it was very complicated, as several add-ons such as vbSeo were installed, he was able to solve the task with absolute skill and, above all, absolute calm, to our complete satisfaction.
We would like to thank Slavik again and are now proud to be part of the XenForo community, we love this forum software.
Best wishes from Germany.

Slavik moved my forum and blog to a new Vultr server with an upgraded software stack. Before the move, we had lots of technical errors and server hiccups that are now all gone. Excellent communication throughout the work, and a great handover experience. Really appreciate his work. Thank you very much!
We were running on custom software, totally hand-rolled, with 1000 users and 170,000 posts and an admin who just could not be bothered.
I provided a db dump to Slavik and he rebuilt all the rest of it, a piece at a time, then let me kick the tires, and we moved to an XF Cloud instance.
Perfect. Users are coming on and everything is there.
Slavik was responsive and helpful the whole way. (I've got a five-page long DM to prove it!).
Full service, total professional.
(And a big public thank you!!!)

Was great working with you. Glad that your members are now safe, sound and happy on XenForo
