Hi there,

I would like to migrate my vBulletin to Kunena. My actual forum is linked to Joomla (1.5) with jFusion.
Is there any migrator for this?

Thanks for your answer.

Best.

Hello,

The migrator component doesn't support actually migration from vbulettin, i can't say when the migrator will support vbuletin. Maybe you can migrate to phpbb3 and then to kunena...

I don't provide support by PM, because this can be useful for someone else.

It was hell to migrate from vBulletin to phpBB3.
So I made the migration with SMF2, and it was a successful operation...

Thanks for your help and support.

Best.

I am interested in how you did you do the SMF2 conversion. vB to SMF2 and then SMF2 to Kunena? Was it vB 3.X or 4.X ?

You have to go vbulletin4 to smf2 to phpbb3 to kunena.

I attached the converters to this post. After converting vbulletin to smf2 I went into phpmyadmin to my smf2 tables, click on config, then edit method, change the auth from smf2 to vb3. That enables the vbulletin authentication plugin. Now you can login to smf2 with your old vbulletin passwords and run all of your maintenance to make sure smf2 displays properly.

This will convert pretty much everything except pm's.

Here's a before and after sample:

vbulletin

Kunena

Thanks!

It seems to have gone quite well.

I actually like the vBulletin forums but the integration with other components is not enough for the site in mind, so I am thinking of converting it to Joomla.

Where's the config table to change that setting?

I think it's smf_config

Then look for method.
