Has anyone ever used the smf conversion program to change over from mybb to smf..

As you can see in this board, there are several conversions already performed.

Unfortunately the conversion isn't usually a straightforward process :( But we can help you as much as possible ;)
In any case, the converter doesn't touch your original MyBB setup so, even if things go wrong, your running forum will be OK

I decide don't conver that. It to dangerous because i can lose my data

margarett

No, you don't loose your data, unless you damage things yourself :P

The converter just READS information from the original forum, it won't damage it ;)

As long as the forums are in different folders (have to be) and in different databases, it's not easy to screw things up ;)

I'm in the process right now. First was a Test, nothing lost.. turned out excellent....what you will find is permissions, need to be redone..

Best move you'll ever make is leaving mybb and coming here to SMF. SMF is so much better and easier to work on..

You may have to downgrade your board back to 1.6 before you can convert to smf..
