MyBB Community Forums

I am in the process of buying another site that has a very large vBulliten forum.. The question I have is, does the site have to be live to convert ie(Online) to do this? Or can the database files be converted??

Or will I have to install the entire forum database and convert it from that??

Hope this make sense.. This is my first swim through MyBB and I really like what I see so far..


TIA

You only need the database to convert or merge.

EDIT: Here's a link to a thread with StefanT saying the same, as a developer saying it is probably more reassuring than me http://community.mybb.com/thread-98744.html
