A few questions before I order

[majorxp]

I posted a similar post the the other forums, but was told to ask here...so here goes...


1. I am migrating from MWP (maxwebportal 2.11) and need to make sure I can import all the users, posts, private messages, profile, etc. I saw the importer for snitz info but I'm not sure it would work. I could not find a way to submit a test sample on the Admin demo. This is a critical item for me as I have a 25,000+ post / 100+ member mwp forum running. (edit-more info) The site is an access database. I saw the list here, but maxwebportal was listed as the first unhyperlinked. I'm guessing this means it isn't available.... I still wonder if snitz importer will work...?? (end edit)

2. Is there session information available to a custom asp script (logged in status / name / rank / etc)? I have several custom web applications I currently use and would need to have this to authenticate users (so I don?t have to twice).

3. Can you run .asp scripts from the scheduled tasks page?

4. Assuming I purchased the 'owned' license today, and three years later version 5.0 is released - I only have to pay $30 to get the latest version...right?

5. I got this error magic_quotes_gpc should be off for optimal performance, ask your host to change this in php.ini on the vBulletin 3 Test Script. What does this mean, and is it worth bugging my hosting provider to change it? (I'll ask them to do this - but I still don't know exactly what this means)

6. ?database_conflicts.php? would not run on my hosted environment. It threw up an error. Is this an issue? (they said not to worry about this)


7. Is there anyone who has converted from mwp / maxwebportal with a success story?
