Can Impex Import older VB versions?

[virgule]

I have an older VB version 2.3 running, which I would like to import into a newer 3.6.8 version. Is this the tool that can do it for me?

Hi,

yes you can import a vb2.3 to any newer vB (3.0, 3.5, 3.6). Impex offers an importer to do this. But you should check if you're running 2.3.10, I have no idea if an older version has the same DB-structure and the impex-script is written for 2.3.10.

hope that helps,

best regards

Upgrading is the first way advised, importing between vBulletin versions is only advised when the upgrade scripts can't do it.

Where can I find the upgrade scripts?

They are in the install directory. Please view the upgrade documentation here:
