Yabb to SMF converter questions

[mlsred]

Hi

I have YaBB 1 Gold - SP 1.1! Board with 5215 members, Topics: 11264 & Total Posts: 191089.

I have two questions. If I use the Yabb to SMF converter to see if it works will it leave my YaBB 1 Gold - SP 1.1! Intact? I wouldn't want to lose anything whilst I test it out..

Secondly, my host provides me with a 100mb database as part of the package. Based on the size of my forum will this be enough space for SMF and all these messages etc?

Thanks in advance..

Your YaBB board will be left intact - SMF just reads the data in the files and converts it before inserting it into the database, so the original data isn't changed.

100MB should be plenty.
