I have been doing installs/uninstalls of the vbulletin and trying to do mock transfers for a couple of weeks now but I kept running into tons of problems with the phpbb to vbulletin transfer. I didn't think I was going to be able to get it to work and then yesterday when I was at Caribou coffee supposedly studying for a medical terminology exam with my laptop with me I got it all to work. They actually turned the lights off on me because I was waiting for the transfer to finish...I still didn't think it was going to work and I was figuring that there would be a lot of issues to clean up and that I'd consider it a practice run and then re-do it this weekend.
I got home, made sure everyone was where they needed to be...and kept working on it...and then ...
OK...I figured that we could use this as our sandbox to test it but keep plucking away at the other forum site until we got it all figured out. I was completely expecting this not to work. I kind of imagined mass chaos with us all rushing back to the old forums.
I can't believe that so far everything has been pretty fixable.
I'm sort of...waiting for the server to crash or my computer to explode...or something.
Thanks for being so patient and talking me through the problems you 've been having.
This is such a load off of my mind.
I know it seems silly, but I am so happy that this is working. I really hope that ultimately we will be much happier with the software and the additional functions!!!
