Default Should We Move to VBulletin?

Hi All

Quite a few members have asked recently whether we'd consider moving to VBulletin.

We certainly would, and theres a import script available: http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/impex_smf

Do you think this would be a good idea?

Do any of you have a strong perference for either VBulletin or Simple Machines?

Thanks

Steve

I like this one. Unless there is a problem with the number of members it can hold, I vote for this one. It will make Inforum.in unique.
Either way, it won't be a problem. Whatever will help Inforum.in grow with ease, is what we should use. My 2 cents.

I prefer this Simple Machines, but I will also be happy with vBulletin if it is preferred by more users.

+1 for vB. It'd attract more people from other similar boards imho. I don't like look n feel of this board. Can I at least get an option to change themes ?

Agreed - we should be transferring in the next couple of weeks.

SMF is a real pain with SEO also, so we'll be looking to move as soon as possible.

We probably won't add any new features to this installation and just concentrate on moving it to VBulletin.

Hi All

Thanks for the feedback - we took the majority opinion and upped and moved to VBulletin.

This was done for two reasons:

1) People found the Simple Machine Forum layout to be too cramped
2) The site was having SEO problems that we thought could be overcome by moving to VBulletin.

Hopefully you find it to be a worthwhile upgrade

Steve

This feels a lot better !!

Just a minor glitch in the settings though, all the emails that I receive from the forum have an extra slash ('/').

Thanks

Hi Lifofifo

Many thanks for spotting that.

The software I work with in my day job always needs the / on the end to make it work properly .... force of habit I guess
