Thank you very much

I have read that MyBB is recommended for Large Community.
In this site http://www.forum-software.org/mybb/review
So what happens to mybb was used in huge Community

Thank you
It's not really possible. The merge system changes IDs, the ways URLs are generated, and thread title parts are filtered and shortened, are too different to result in identical URLs. The best you can hope to achieve is a working URL redirection, and for that it's beneficial to have a different URL style so old URLs can not be confused/conflict with new URLs.

I've outlined a solution for phpbb->mybb here:

http://community.mybb.com/thread-82995-p...#pid604334

It should work pretty much the same way for vbulletin->mybb, using vb's rewrite rule for thread URLs instead of phpbb's.
thank you for your replay
the problem is i don't know how to make rewrite rule for my old link because the old link seem difficult

Can you make the link in the mybb
like this
http://www.forum.g-ara.com/ (Thread id) / (Thread title). html
Or
http://www.forum.g-ara.com/ (Thread id) /
You probably already have the rewrite rule (the same one VB uses).
thank you
but i have use vbseo and that it rule not like you think

# Comment the following line (add '#' at the beginning)
# to disable mod_rewrite functions.
# Please note: you still need to disable the hack in
# the vBSEO control panel to stop url rewrites.
RewriteEngine On

# Some servers require the Rewritebase directive to be
# enabled (remove '#' at the beginning to activate)
# Please note: when enabled, you must include the path
# to your root vB folder (i.e. RewriteBase /forum/)
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^((urllist|sitemap_).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(admincp/|modcp/|cron|vbseo_sitemap|api\.php)
RewriteRule ^((archive/)?(.*\.php(/.*)?))$ vbseo.php [L,QSA]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !/(admincp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images)/
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ vbseo.php [L,QSA]

RewriteEngine on

# If you are having problems or are using VirtualDocumentRoot, uncomment this line and set it to your vBulletin directory.
# RewriteBase /forum/

# If you are having problems with the rewrite from content/ to content.php, uncomment this line to turn MultiViews off.
# Options -MultiViews

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -l [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d

RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]
LOL

Okay...

Well, it's easy enough to write a rewrite rule that matches thread url and id.

Something like this maybe:

RewriteRule ^([1-9][0-9]*)/[^/]*\.html$ redirect.php?tid=$1 [L,QSA,NC]
