Hey,
So I currently have my existing established mybb 1.6 forum of a few hundred members and I purchased a database of an old forum.
I have the full sql backup of that old forum and it is a mybb 1.6 forum. What I want to do is merge the user database from that old forum into my existing one.
So basically I want to get the members out of that sql file and plonk them into my forum as if they were newly created users. ( so no special usergroups and no conflicting userid's )
Can I do this with the mybb merge system? Or what would be the best way of going about achieving a similar result?
Thanks in advance.
