Upgrading

[PeterCoti]

Well I have created a website but I am not sure what I will do. I want to install PhpBB but only use it until I raise enough money to pay for vB. If I were to do that is their a way to upgrade to vB and not have to start from scratch? Thanks!

Edit: The thread above says 3.6 so is that as high as I can upgrade to? And what about vB4?

Yes. You can import your phpBB data.

Can I import posts/threads/members from other forum software?

We currently offer import utilities for Forum for more than 70 competitive products. vBulletin CMS does not have an import utility at this time. We are currently working on import scripts for several popular platforms.

For further details on the current status of the vB3 import scripts and an overview of the data that is imported for each of the different boards please see the ImpEx Systems section in the online manual.

These import utilities are available to all customers via the members area.

It will not import any mods or hacks.
