vBulletin to Drupal

This module will import your data from vBulletin forums into Drupal forums. It has been tested with vBulletin 3.6.2 (but should work for most--if not all--vBulletin installations). It also includes a login manager that allows existing forum users to login without having to reset their passwords.

This module was developed for The Webmaster Forums (who have recently moved to Drupal--yes, we do like Drupal's forum!)

There are two things to remember when using this module: always test thoroughly before using on live data, and when you do use it on live data make sure you have a working backup. The author is available to help with your own forum conversion, use the contact form to send details of the conversion and to enquire about rates.

Since vBulletin is a MySQL only product it is doubtful a PostgreSQL version will be released.

Drupal six version is not usable! A version for Drupal six has been released, however the vBulletin to Drupal conversion module will not work until Comment upload and, to a lesser extent, Privatemsg are also ported (when they are ported there will probably be changes in them that will need to be reflected in this module too). Feel free to play about with the module in the meantime. The passwords module (for allowing vBulletin users to login) is complete, but mostly untested.

If you need to use six, it is probably best to start with a five install then import from vBulletin and upgrade.
