We currently have a forum on anabolicfitness.net and want to switch the software to vBulletin.. is there software to port all the member info/threads over to vBulletin?

It's "powered by Infopop" and I think it's running ubbthreads.. not sure, as I am new to the company.

thanks.

what if there are custom fields in the user info section of the ubbthreads?

Well IPB and ubb are two different things, If you run into any issues I'm sure Jerry over at vBulletin.com could help you.
