vbulletin 5.7.5 to XENFORO migration

[tenis]

Hello,
We have a very big forum www.tenisdemasa.ro that was at first hosted by PHPBB platform, then we migrated to VB4.0 and then again to VB5.0, now we are at vb5.7.5.

I will not talk about the disappointment of the transition from vb4 to vb5, or how we lost all the romanian diacritics after migration (I mean the leters ă, â, î, ș, ț).
Anyway we plan to migrate to XENFORO, self hosted and for our forum to work properly I will need the following features:

1. Keep the created user groups and rights from VB after migration
2. migrate existing topic prefixes and require users to use prefixes if they exist
3. Random image add banner system
4. Mod/plugin to add images to the forum through external photo hosting sites (example imgbb)
5. Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread and who has read a thread
6. Add-on that allows users to edit their first post in a thread for either an unlimited period of time or a different amount of time than a normal post
7. Anti double post - merges consecutive posts created by the same user within a specified time frame
8. Auto close old topic (after a specific time)

You think i will find every of those in Xenforo?

I’d suggest talking to @MySiteGuy he is expert in this.

or how we lost all the romanian diacritics after migration (I mean the leters ă, â, î, ș, ț).

We can handle all the points you mentioned and ensure a smooth migration to XenForo. Additionally, we might be able to recover the romanian diacritics that were lost (we just need to check your database).

If you're interested, we can discuss the details by private message.
