Moving from phpBB 3.x to vBulletin 5
 

Hello everyone,

we recently purchased vBulletin 5 and would like to move our old forum (phpBB 3.x) to a new vBulletin supported. The problem is that we would like to install into the same folder. As far as I know the installation process should look like this (assuming the old phpBB is in www.oursite.com/forum):

1. Install vBulletin in a different folder than the original phpBB (e.g. www.oursite.com/vBulletin)
2. Use ImpEx to move the content and user data to the new vBulletin forum.
3. Delete the old phpBB files from www.oursite.com/forum
4. Move the vBulletin files from /vBulletin to /forum
5. Change the settings in the vBulletin to match this new subfolder.

Am I right with this or is there another way to do this.

Thanks for your help. Kind regards
