    PHPBB2 to VB 3.6.2

    Type of import - Clean
    Target version - 3.6.2
    Module issue occurred on -
    Any SQL error reported - No

    I downloaded Impex - installed - transfered database with no issues (and a lot of reading). New database was empty so no users to merge, ect.

    New board - Doesn't show all threads and posts but does show correct thread counts and posts.

    I saw in the Impex page (I do not have open so will paraphrase): ..go to forum manager and save display. Is that in maintainance->update counters->rebuild post cache?

        Default forum

        If you are importing into a fresh install of vBulletin, you may want to delete the default forum, it is advised that you do this before the import, if you are doing it after the import make sure that the imported forums and threads are not contained with in the default forum as they will be removed also.
        Does this mean remove the "old" forum from my server or the database?

          That's the default forum that is created in your vBulletin when it is installed.
          I wrote ImpEx.

            Impex worked perfectly!

            The user on the other hand not so good

            I had this VB on another site and moved it to this one. Come to find out the settings were different (probably from the import) and I had the "View Thread" settings and a few others I had to change.

            Thanks for all the help.
