We would like to thank the XenForo developers for their migration tool.
After several tests and carefully analyzing all the issues that could arise, the migration has been a success.
  • Over 150,000 messages
  • Around 2,500 threads
  • About 2,500 users
  • More than 35 GB of images
Redirects for old internal phpBB thread links were successfully handled using the import_log_phpbb_1 table and the viewforum and viewtopic routes.
The ease of creating custom styles, along with many other improvements, clearly highlights the advantages over the now outdated phpBB.

Very pleased with the result. Thank you for making such a transition easy.

Regards

Can you provide more info on how you are redirecting? I just moved from PHPBB3 3.3.16 and for the life of my I can figure out how to do the redirects.

EDIT: Looks like I have threads working but not forums. I'm using this https://xenforo.com/community/resources/redirection-scripts-for-phpbb-without-seo-urls.9273/
