| It is possible to merge? A database from different forum softwares? Like for example a phpBB and a MyBB databases? Also I was wondering, how goes the mergin of two databases? If I want to merge two phpBB forums how do I go about doing this? Thanks.  | ||||

If you're interested in merging forums into a MyBB-powered board, a MyBB Merge Wizard is in development for around MyBB 1.4. It's really nice, details on it can be found here: http://www.surfionline.com/archives/...ay-you-import/ (Chris Boulton's blog, even though he isn't the one who's really developing the merge wizard). There is an unofficial phpBB to MyBB converter, but I'm not sure if it merges or just converts - you'd have to investigate that. | ||||

| Wow cool, thanks for the info...I´ll check it out...before best-board.com, merging two boards was a no-no for me, but now I think it is pretty good for both forums. | ||||

The tutorial was on another page. I agree that's heavy indeed .. quite boring if you want my opinion
