Merging two forums?

[JamesUS]

Well that means you need to do what I posted about the first time It's not very difficult, but you'd either need to do it yourself or find someone else to do it for you.

Hey Psychdrone,
If you need help with merging your boards let me know.

[Psychdrone]

could you give me an example, of what I would change the quiers to?

Thanks James

I want to merge two forums together also. But the thing is, one of the forums is running 2.2.1, and the other is running a beta version of vB2. I'm merging sites, and that webmaster will ONLY merge if I can move all of his users to my forums.

Will the encrypted passwords in 2.2.1 be a problem if I simply move the user tables?

James buddy ol pal or mike199m, if one of you guys could set me on the right path, that would be greaaat

or maybe you should write a FAQ, on how to do this and put it up over at VB.com or here, when you can, just a thought


Thanks! :up:

I am in the same situation. I already have a forum that has alot of data in it. I am now adding a new board and I only want to share the user information. I want to be able to register on one board and have the ability to post on both. I also want their post counts and total member count to carry over. Over time, i will likely add more boards that will need to share, but right now, it will be just 2. Any help appreciated!!!!
