I am currently running SMF Forums, (Simple Machine Forums), and I was told their is a way to import all Members and Posts to VBulletin, but I have looked online and have not found a tutorial.

Can anyone show me a link on instructions, or can provide me with instructions?

Thanks,

The instructions can be found at vbulletin.com in the members area for the vbulletin manual.

The only issue with smf to vbulletin is the fact that the users need to reset their passwds manually.

Can I reset their password for them upon request?

They can use the "forgot password" option when they try to login, so as long as their email accounts are listed in their accounts and valid, they will get a email from the forum with the link to reset their passwords.

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