XF 1.5 Things to be checked after Data Import ... ?

[Surendra.S]

Hi All,

I have successfully installed XenForo and imported vBulletin data to XenForo.

Just wondering what are the things that MUST be checked immediately after Import.

This is what happened :

1) I am able to login to XenForo Admin CP with the Administrator ID.

2) But when I access the forum with same Administrator ID, its showing the message that I don't have permission for that. (But as a GUEST, I am able to see the forums & content)

3) I went to Admin CP > User Group Permissions , and allowed permissions for ADMIN group to view all forums.

4) When I access the forum now, its showing the message that I should complete some Two Step Verification. I did that and finally able to view the forums & content.

Its a slightly confusing as I am beginner.

1) So, Please list what things I should check immediately after Import ?

2) What's this Two Step Verification process. Every member of my forum has to go through this before they can see the forum content ?

You will need to check and adjust all permissions.

You can disable 2FA in the user group permissions.

It can also be disabled for administrators accessing the ACP - enter 'verification' in the ACP search to locate the option.

You will need to check and adjust all permissions.

So the vBulletin permissions will not be retained after import ?

And any HELP guide/page for User Group Permissions ? (The permission list in XenForo seems more exhaustive and complicated than vBulletin)

Permissions may not be duplicated exactly, which is why they need to be checked.

There are some guides here for permissions: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/featured
