Is that overview up to date? IPS products has evolved quite fast. tags have been added and infractions and soft deleted posts will be added in IPB 3.3

Are the following data sets imported?

PM folders - No, folders are not carried across
Thread prefixes - Thread prefixes are converted into IP.Board tag prefixes
Member account change history - Not too sure what you mean here, if you mean name changes etc., these aren't converted
infraction points - Yes
Infraction messages - Yes
Preset Infractions - No, not at this stage.
tags - Yes
soft deleted posts - Yes
topic history (merges, deletions, renaming, moving, etc) - We don't copy across logs
user notes - User notes from warnings/infractions are copied across, if that is what you mean

In Topic: Converters updated [18-Jan-2012]

18th January 2012
The converters have received a maintenance release to rectify issues with XenForo forum passwords for customers who initially converted from vBulletin to XenForo, before converting to IP.Board.

The update includes numerous bugfixes for the other supported products as well.

Password issue was because converter had been deleted. If you delete converter, than it cannot access old db with passwords.

That's partly correct, the converter files must be present (and the application must remain installed in the IP.Board Admin CP) - though it doesn't access the old database for passwords, all passwords are copied across to the IP.Board database.

In Topic: Conversions from XF 1.1 Beta

The converters should work with Xenforo 1.1, there were little changes between the two releases in terms of core database structure which we require in the converters.

Yes I think so, but this version is no longer supported by IPS.

That is incorrect, 3.1.4 is still available to download in the client area and is still supported by us.
