Ok, before you hit back I have one or two questions that I really need help on. I'm planning on moving to ASO (ASmallOrange) from HostGator. Right now, my forum is empty so I can move with out panic, my question is that because when you move to a different host, your database names, forum paths, and everything else would be different and that is it possible to have some special tool to help you fix everything including Modifications/addons?

What I mean is when you first install vbulletin, you would have to edit the config.php inside the install folder. Because I changed host, obviously I would need to edit those details.. but I have a various amount of addons added and I'm not sure which one need edits. For sure I know config.php, for specific addons such as vBSEO, you need to edit it to your forum path in one of the php files provided or htacess. I have a list of addons that I have installed on my website and if you know at least one that needs to be edited, please post!

The only thing you'd probably have to edit is the config.php file, and if any of the plugins/modifications need a path hardcoded into them. (photoplog? vBACMPS)

I suggest trying to register at ASO to get the same account name/login you do at HostGator and you probably won't need to edit anything.

Have a look at Moving Servers. (This assumes you have shell access, but it still details the process.)

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
