IPB to vBulletin?

Hi,

At the moment, I'm using IPB and I'm interested in moving to vBulletin. Am I able to convert my IPB to vB? (Preferably vB3, not 4)

Impex, which is free, will import the majority of content from IPB to VB 3 or 4.

Impex Manual:
https://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/impex

You get access to Impex upon buying a VB license.

Passwords will need to be reset after the import.

You'll need to post in the paid services section of vb.org

Current version of Impex is only for importing into vBulletin 3.x or 4.x.

There will be a newly released Impex for importing into VB5.

For now if you wanted to import IPB to VB5 you'd have to install VB4 and import into that first, then upgrade to VB5.
