Get a copy of Database for paid forums?

Hello all,

Me and a friend have been running an invisionfree forum since Nov. 08. However we have setup a new forum with a webhosting account on a virtual webhost and going to be paying for the newest version of Invision Power Board. In the mean time we'd not want to loose the current data in the forum, i.e. user name registrations, threads, replies, etc. Is there anyway to get a copy of the database in *.gz format that could then be uploaded to the virtual webhost into the new forums??

Hi there.

If you would prefer a paid raw dump of your forum's database, you need to purchase a Conversion, which will provide you with your forum's database in IPB 1.3 format. You could then convert this database to other formats. Follow the link for pricing. Import instructions that include a link to the data will be posted in this ticket after your conversion has been performed.

After purchasing a conversion, if you'd like the database to be installed on your IPB 1.3 for you, InvisionFree can perform a Transfer, in which we restore the database to your new hosted board. The transfer link shows pricing for this service. If you want to move to IPB 2.x or later, you do not need a transfer, only a conversion. Once you have your converted board data, you'll have to contact Invision Power Services and have them install it for you.

Any purchases are subject to the Terms of Sale.

It will cost you $10. Lucky; I have to pay $200 [forum with 180,000]! :P
