transferring Proboards.com info over...

[Macartist6]

I think I probably know the answer (no) but I was wondering if there are any hack apps that would allow transferring my board from Proboards over to my new vBulletin board???

Thank you

No just post a link to your new board if you mean convert your board see vbulletin.com and you posted this in the wrong forum

Not unless you can get a database dump and they use a software supported by impex tool

[Skierpetros]

Go to vbulletin.com and download the impex tool!

It lets you import information from one database into a vBulletin database.

If proboards is free (and i think it is) you probably dont have access to the database (they may charge extra for it, or just not give it at all), in which canse you can't do anything.

If they give you a database backup, you should be able to restore it.

I just had this issue.

You CANNOT transfer from Proboards to Vbulletin.

Best solution is to tell them/give them a link to the new site ahead of time, and wait for the migration to be complete.

And push the members to move - I suggest once they move, delete their name from Proboards to help organize who needs to be moved over.

I wish we could access the DB and do it, but I lost half my members in this process, it's a shame, PB sucks.

Is there any updates on this?
Is it still not possible to import proboards info into vbulletin.

Thank you
