MyBB Community Forums

If I convert from phpBB3 to MyBB, will it keep my Categories and Forums along with the descriptions?

yes just use a meger systeme : http://www.mybb.com/downloads/merge-system

also you should have a backup for your forum and good luck

The forum and thread ID's might change if i remember.

They will, based on whatever's already on the MyBB forum.

Everything will convert, death180. Don't worry. Look over this a few times though (this is the official documentation). And also, be sure that the loginconvert.php file works so that the password converts.
