MyBB migration tool

[nimasdj]

Is that article to do tie the forum access to an external member area available here http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/? if this is available somewhere, can you give me a direct link to that article?

and can you give me a list of plugins to install, available FREELY in memeber area or in official forums?

Does vb have a project manager feature that users can post bugs and I can set the post as "fixed", "not a bug" etc.?

There is no article on integrating with an external licensing system, as that would be something very specific to your situation, but there are plenty of general coding articles available.

Anything that goes beyond default functionality in vBulletin you will not find in the manual (or on the official site www.vbulletin.com). Modifications are discussed among members on this site (www.vbulletin.org).

Nobody can give you a list of plugins to install as that will depend on what you need. But this start to go beyond what i can answer in the Pre-Sales section as i can not go into technical details here.

"Project Manager"? You could use thread prefixes or tags for this, or if you want Project Tools, but you will need to contact sales to see if that is available at this time.

1) Are some other themes available for v3.8.5 than the default one?
2) Can I see screenshot of them?
3) Whenever I got full forum access here after purchase, can yourself or someone help me in technical area forum, guide me how I can modify code myself to tie with my external member area?

I too am a dissatisfied MyBB user. I am currently in the mode of figuring out if this is a doable move. First prob, is I am not very adept in doing web work and I am curious how hard is it to import my present forum into a new vBulletin. I have to do something different because I spend too much time trouble shooting my members problems. Is there some reputable that can do this kind of changeover for a reasonable charge? Please advise,BrentB

Please give more information why you are unhappy with MyBB and why you prefer VB vs. MyBB.

1) Yes, see for example: vBulletin 3.8 Styles

2) You can not see the thumbnails until you are licensed, but many will also have a link to a demo site.

3) Yes, this entire site (vBulletin.org) is dedicated to members sharing modifications, styles, resources and knowledge on modifying your vBulletin installation beyond the default.

A migration can be done by yourself, even if you don't have more then basic knowledge. If needed you can get technical assistence using the support system.

You can read more about the import and user experiences (keep in mind that every migration is to some level custom and thus some minor resolvable issues might be encountered) at vBulletin Impex Import System

@Marco: and why do you expect that I buy vb without seeing screenshots of some other available themes than the default one, as this is a legal pre sale request? May be you can show screenshots just me?

@BrentB: Please give more information why you are unhappy with MyBB and why you prefer VB vs. MyBB.

Sorry but i can not make an exception for 1 user, on our site unlicensed users can not see/download attachments. But as i already mentioned, most will have a link for a demo of the style.

How about current theme used here on vbulletin.org? Is this theme available to download and use?
