Default Correct/Best way to upgrade from vb 3.6.x( with vbseo) to vb 4.x(with dbseo) ?
Hello,
I just need your guidance on how to do things, I will manage myself.

How should we plan our upgrade ?
Should we upgrade to vb 4.x first and then install dbseo or vice-versa ?

Require following things setup on new vb 4.x:
Import of Zoints tags manager from vb 3.x to 4.x
Sitemaps

We are running our fourms on vb 3.6.x and require to upgrade to vb 4.x latest.
We have vbseo installed on 3.x and need to upgrade to dbseo.

Thanks.

The DBSEO PRO version has an vBSEO importer and you can directly import your rewrite tools.

Even if you use their lite version, you can easily customize the rules in the lite version to match what you have currently set in vBseo.

Thanks, but this does not answers my question:

I would suggest installing DBSEO first and then upgrade to vB4, because vBSEO is not supported by higher php versions and can cause issues during the upgrade process.

Sitemaps are straightforward, you can easily setup in admincp and submit to search engines.

Zoints tag manager does not have a vB4 version. I am not sure of any other alternatives.

DBSEO works only 3.8.x later or above and vb 4.0.2x or above..

In that case, upgrade to 3.8.x first, install DBSEO and then upgrade to 4.2.5

OR, directly upgrade to vB4 on PHP 5.x, and change PHP version at the end, when everything is correctly configured.

Sorry, you have a license already for it so its available to you, thats good.

I bought vb5 last month and was going to download vb4 but it is no longer available to be downloaded.
