    Hi,

    Does anybody know how can I merge a forum powered by myBB which I am planning to buy, into my vBulletin powered forum. I read Brandon's article but it doesn't talk about how and was vB to vB. Not sure if it is even possible for two different platforms.

    Please let me know

    Thanks

    You can download Impex from vbulletin and import your MyBB board into vBulletin :)

    Yup, I was about to say the same thing it's pretty much as dead simple as that. :)

    Always make sure you have a solid backup of your target sites database.

    Thanks, I just needed to clarify somethings before I buy any forum. I heard people asking questions regarding BIN, organic traffic, unique contents and RSS etc. I need to do some research to understand these terms before buying one. Not even sure if its worth it.

    Thanks
