phpbb links to mybb

[WWu777]

I'm wondering the same thing as the OP. Do these instructions from the archive for redirecting phpbb forum links to mybb forum links still apply? It includes creating two files that redirect viewtopic.php and viewforum.php

http://community.mybb.com/thread-14341.html

Also, can't something be done in the htaccess file to make this redirect too? If so, how?

And what about direct links to specific posts, like this one for instance:

http://www.happierabroad.com/forum/viewt...05#p195005

The # part goes directly to a specific post in a thread.

Thanks.

Also, I'm wondering, how is forum software like this free? Where does the funding come from? How do the programmers of mybb get paid? What's their incentive? Are there exceptions to that old adage "There's no such thing as a free lunch"?
