Hey.

What are the known Problems with converting from IPB (lastest) to VB (latest)?

I just want to know if it will cause any problems.

One issue i know heard that the passwords dont work anymore and you have to reset them for every single member? Is that true?

This depends. There may be conflicting between the fact that in IPB members have two usernames. However, even if you do have to reset the password, you can simply use a global email to send each member the password reset password, so you dont actually need to reset them yourself.

Resetting passwords is a big issue and most of the people might not even know how to do it... so we lose members and traffic

Is there something that can covert the username passwords aswell?

Like I said, a global email prior to converging telling them that they may have to reset their password, and then after converging, sending out another email linking them to the reset password field with instructions on how to reset their password, and telling them that if they are unable to reset their password just to contact you will work just fine.
The only members you will loose are noobs.

Or you can email conversions@invisionpower.com and ask them if the passwords will be lost ..(Thats what I would do before anything IMO)

Are you converting
FROM IPB TO vB
or
FROM vB TO IPB
If its the first I don't know if you're looking on the right forum for support, you should probably ask vB.

From IPB to Vbulletin... as stated in the topic title :P

Well then he/she should post in the vbulletin forums :lol:

He can still post here. Vbulletin does not know IPB as well as IPB does, so she should get input from both vbulletin and IPB

Well then he should post in the vbulletin forums :lol:

I agree with Lindsey_

I am askin it over at both the forums

The VB staff told me that IPB2 passes are encrypted so thats why EVERY member in the forum need to reset their pass

Is there anything IPB can do to make those passwords convert to VB?

I am looking forward to ya'll replies.
