Forum migration combined with a move.
Let me see if I can explain this right.
I am going to change from SMF to vB and also move at the same time. If this is possible.
Here is the situation. I have a dedicated server and I hired someone to build several sites for me. I am doing this one myself.
Instead of creating a different account things were done as subdomains and add on domains.
I am a novice at this by the way.
I want to get the forum into it's own account on the server.
Here is how it looks now.
Account:
Domain
subdomain
subdomain
add on domain *forums*
Here is what I think I need to do.
Create a test account domain name to build the new forum on. Move a copy of the files needed as I need them. When I am happy with the results with the new forum then figure out how to make the addon domain name the one for the new account.
Ok, tell me where I am thinking wrong? And the right way to go about doing this.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
