I wanna just say this, it's not automatic, you upload your database, vbcorolla then puts it through his unique custom coded downgrader script, he then tests and uploads the vb3 version of your database to the same private server for you to download, if he's asleep when you upload your database, or otherwise occupied, it's not gonna be automatic, that's why the 24hr limit is there. :)

Ah, ok. I misunderstood it then, my bad. Thank you for the clarification :)

tests seem to show 350k forum is completed in less than a few minutes, but that doesn't include doing a backup, and a test afterwards, or rebuild counters from vb (if needed). Or transferring db files. Every forum is different of course

Has anyone from here tried this service out ?

Brandon Sheley 07-21-2010 03:25 PM

Apparently you can use impex to import from vbulletin 4 to vBulletin 3.x, so this service isn't really needed.


Ps.. on a side note, I didn't think we're allowed to post or talk about paid services at the Org?

I have been researching this today. Impex works, but some things will be lost:
(attachments, social groups, albums. etc) See image below.

Impex does keep the users, posts, and user passwords however.

Related discussion at vbulletin.org

I plan on trying this soon. 4.x has been really terrible for me, but I never had a problem with 3.x

I waited a long time to downgrade because I believed 4.x would improve.

Jelsoft response to suggestion of downgrade script or downgrade ability

Active downgrade service (if you can't do it yourself and need help).
