My company has a one year old Forum Up forum created for our end user discussions that has far exceeded all expectations and continues to grow in membership and at the moment it has over 500 registered users and about 12000 articles.

I understand the obvious benefits of creating our own VBB board and have every intention of doing so but my question is can the content/threads/posts on our current Forum Up board be transferred to our future VBB board with a hack or am I limited to creating an archive forum that hyperlinks to our initial Forum Up forum?

Just so you know while I'm the one who will pull the trigger and pay for the VBB forum I have another person who set up this FU forum and manages it so in other words I personally require laymen terms on anything technical that may be discussed.

As it stands I'm sold on a VBB just tell me my FU forum can be integrated to a VBB forum.

Thanks! :up:

first, it is vB, not VBB (different product)...

depending on the software used for your forum, not indicated here, you can be able to import :

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