Have a look here:

At the bottom, you'll see "Vbulletin to SMF 2-0-rc3".


I guess that's what you're after. :)

Hi!

Thanks for your help..but the convert give this error :

Sorry, the database connection information used in the specified installation of SMF cannot access the installation of vBulletin 3. This may either mean that the installation doesn't exist, or that the Database account used does not have permissions to access it.

The error that was received from the Database was: Incorrect database name ''


Bye !!

Maybe you need to tell it what the database name is?

First of all, that error means that you must install smf in the same db that your vb forums resides on. Or at least to give its db user full permissions and access tot he db of the vb forum.

Second of all, the converter listed there is for vb 3x only and not for vb 4.

But i have the smf and vb n the same database.

But they say me that the convert of vb3 is ok to vb4
