Migrating from Woltlab to MyBB

[Deleted member 45570]

I like to migrate my Forum from Burning Board 5.1 to MyBB and when i tried the Merge system from MyBB it didn't work. Anyone had any success in converting?

It is better if you say Burning Board 5.1 ( which is the latest ). There is confusion when you use " suite " version numbers.

Yes, sorry about that. I have updated the OP.

Nothing specific, i thought for a fun project MyBB will work better instead of WoltLab. It seems as of now i need to stick with Woltlab as there is no convertors.

This is quoted from @JoelR and I thought it be nice to share it with you.

A lot of admins launch their community too soon. Answer these questions:
- what are you personally interested in exploring? Do you have a unique background or special skills that you bring to the niche?
- do you have an existing audience of members OR existing content that would attract new members?
- what is your mission and objectives?
Answer those questions first, and then we can figure out the rest.
