WBB to vB Converter?

[Xcalibur]

Hi,
I am an admin of a website that wants to purchase vB, but with 1 problem.. the webmaster wants to keep the existing users and posts from Burning Board, but there seems to be no converter available so I asked on vBulletin.com support forums, and was told to ask if someone could write a hack here, can anyone take the challenge?

Thanks,
Xcalibur

[okrogius]

I ma very new with vB and I do not have any hacks. First I would like to know how can I update my version of forum cuz I have 2.0.0 on soemthing news.

[Clanstarus]

Clanstarus, please go to this (http://www.vbulletin.com/members/vbulletin.org.php) page and enter your username, to show you are licensed. (you will need to use your customer number and password to access that page)

Once you've done that, go to vbulletin.com and read the Announcement for version 2.2.5. You'll need to download the latest version and read the upgrade instructions.

Thank you.

I would actually like this I have a wbb and would like to transfer it to a vb :(

[okrogius]

Yes, me too. I have one wbb that I'm thinking of getting a vb instead. That's all nice but a converter would be really nice.

[Clanstarus]

Thank you very much guys.

But I got a new problem, everything was good in 2 days I got more then 45 people but today I could see my forum anymore, then I went to admin option and everything ok there. Anyways ideas what can it be?? And why its not working anymore??

[Clanstarus]

And my version still was is 2.0.0 :(

[Steve Machol]

Clanstarus, once again you will need to go to this (http://www.vbulletin.com/members/vbulletin.org.php) page and enter your username, to show you are licensed.

[Mythril]

dude show your licence or youll be banned he smachol rember me from vb.com?? well IF someone can make it it would be great beacuse I know many people who want to go to wbb to vb! :paranoid: :knockedout:

Hi I currently use a wbb and now that it will no longer remain free in the future I plan on upgrading to a VB if possible. I was just wondering if you knew about the status of a convertor for this product. Will there be one in the future? If so do you happen to know how long it will be?

I'm not telling you to make one, I'm just curious about the status of one. :)

[Steve Machol]

To my knowledge no one is working on an official WBB importer at this time. All energy is going into preparing vB 3.0 for relaese. Perhaps once that's done they can work on the importers. However I'm sure the first order of business will be to recode the existing importers. After that, they'll decide on other scripts based on overall demand.

I read in another post that there is already one made but it's in German. I don't speak German so would it be possible for somebody to translate it?

You'd be helping alot of people out. :)

[Mythril]

I can translate it but i need an link!

[Ciced]

I'm afraid I don't have a direct link to it but I got the info that one existed from this thread.
