Photopost and Vbulletin... the other way...

[dawgbone]

We have a current installation of photopost that has quite a few users and pictures in it.

We now want to add a vbulletin forum. I know we can setup photopost to use the vbulletin user database that already exists... but is it possible to do it the other way?

Can we setup vbulletin and then transfer all the users from photopost to vbulletin?

This is probally what you want. You need to correctly install photopost to integrate with vb once you run this to get users in vb and vb always has an import script to import users

Thanks Chuck,

Just so I have this straight...

I have my photopost all running and installed and full of pictures and users... I change it to integrate with the vbulletin database (which is currently empty).

I then import all my photopost users into vbulletin using vbulletin's import users script?

YES and then you run Photopost install over your current setup copy and integrate with vbulletin

I assume that won't delete the current content in there right (by content I mean the pictures and all the categories)?

[Chuck S]

correct no deleting of things

Am I able to intergrate my SFM (Simple Machines) Forum into my photopost? If so, how do I do this?

Thanks Much!

You install Photopost to integrate with SMF
