Hi,

I'm going to install 6 new forums and I was wondering if there is the possibility of storing the configuration of the forum (groups, permissions, and all settings...). I always use the same policy/rules for all my forums and when I install a new forum I have to start it all again setting permissions, configuring the registration mode, etc.

I was wondering if this info is stored in any files that I could just copy and paste in order to save time.

Thank you in advance.

Best regards,
Hawork

No, there is no simple way to do so and vb stores nothing in the files itself, all in the db.

Setup 1 new one the way you want it, then dump and import that new db into the next 5.

You could possibly use ImpEx to import Usergroups only.

I think this could become a nice feature/suggestion ... thoughts?

You can export settings and styles. If you also need forums & usergroups, then just create a copy and delete what is not needed.

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