Hi Folks
I am the admin for a small club website and forum. I think I made the ultimate mistake of switching to v3.1 of phpBB and am now looking at alternatives. I will also be looking to see if MyBB will integrate groups/permissions to WordPress for conditional content display and possibly admin logins for WP.
I have the latest MyBB installed and running (in its own folder and DB) and want to import the phpBB forum.
I have a couple of questions:
1. Will "merge" leave my existing (live) phpBB database intact and unmodified?
2. I downloaded the dev version of Merge that was linked in another thread in here. Has this been tested or is there a later version?
I am happy to test if required, just want confirmation from question one first please.
Thanks!
Collin
