We are wanting to move from a well-established Yahoo group to a MyBB forum. There are 6000 members who are very used to the Yahoo group. How can we make the transition smooth and easy? What plugins should I add, and what else should I do to keep things somewhat similar? Email access would be the biggest plus I can think of myself....
newsgroups like yahoo , google do not provide access to database AND we do not have any direct converters to make a forum .
crawler type script needs to be developed & used to get the messages .. it is a complex process & needs experienced coder ...
these might help : recently an expert has provided
API (alpha) to use with myBB forums AND there is a
posting by email plugin ..
Thanks! We're not going to try to move old posts over, so that's not an issue.
The posting by email plugin looks good. Any other suggestions?
