Hi! My question is too complicated for search terms apparently so apologies if this has been answered before.
I have an Invision Community board database, that is not hosted anywhere currently as I cancelled my account a few months ago. I am wanting to convert it to MyBB to host on my own website (there are several years of creative writing archives I don't want to lose).
The merge documentation says you need the Database host, username, and password of the source database to run it. But I don't have this because it's not hosted, it's literally just a full database backup file. How would I go about using this to merge to my new MyBB install?
