Hi,

At the moment, I'm using IPB and I'm interested in moving to vBulletin. Am I able to convert my IPB to vB? (Preferably vB3, not 4)

Impex, which is free, will import the majority of content from IPB to VB 3 or 4.

Impex Manual:

You get access to Impex upon buying a VB license.

Passwords will need to be reset after the import.

Is it anyone that can Upgrade the ipb module to vb5 ? I like to import my IPB forum in to vB5 to test Things out.

vB5 is still in beta so would suggest not to do it yet

You'll need to post in the paid services section of vb.org

Current version of Impex is only for importing into vBulletin 3.x or 4.x.

There will be a newly released Impex for importing into VB5.

For now if you wanted to import IPB to VB5 you'd have to install VB4 and import into that first, then upgrade to VB5.

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