ok so im asking here to.
is there any possible way to turn back to 3.8
i have been running vb4 for while now and i have no more back up's from 3.8.
as far as i know theres no possible way to down grade.

i have came up with one idea, and thats moving to IP.Boards then moving back
to vbulletin again, would that work at all?<<<?

there must be away, reason, vb4 i like it but not for this 1 certain forum of mine.
please i need your idea's.

thanks.

Backup was the only safe way imo
You could try importing to other forums and back that might work

Yes, that can work. However, bear in mind that you might loose some settings by doing a round-about conversion.

IMHO, it's a dumb plan though. vb3 isn't going anywhere.

converted vb4.0.3 to IP.Board 3.0.1.
converted IP.Board 3.0.1 back to 3.8.5.

thanks for the 2 replys to give me that extra push :D

i fancy doing this too, i am really starting to dislike vb4 and i think its running slower than my old board.
what board is best for converting too?
i looked at IP.Boards but they cost money too, i would like something free, doesnt matter what aslong as i can convert back to vb3
looked at phpbb3 but there doesnt seem to be a conversion available for vb4 yet

i used a nulled IP.board to do the convert.
then after that i was messing around with Ip.Boards and found it was pretty good to work with, so i bought one ;)
